As Tehr addressed the matter of writing back to his family, and giving the reasoning for his actions, there was a general murmur of acceptance in the air. It seemed his words were met with approval and the Queen herself was smiling at his words with pride, a general consensus seeming to be that he had spoken in a manner that secured his place in the court for the moment at least.<br/><br/>"We are pleased to hear your reasons and find the request for time both reasonable and wise. House Wynt shall have the time to give it answer, and should the offer be declined for the reasons already mentioned, it will not diminish anyone's honor but elevate it, remembering to serve the needs of the Country above ones' own." Her words were met with agreeing nods and muttering, though some seemed to frown faintly, though not allowing it to show too openly. It was rather obvious jab on her part towards a few more selfish individuals, at least in their opinion, but none seemed to dare disagree about it out loud.<br/><br/>"Please let us hear your answer as soon as possible." The Queen politely nod her head to him to show the dismissal taking place, and it seemed that as soon as she had done so a few others tried to catch her attention already. The spaniard was one, the elven duke casting a glance towards the Queen's way but then turning to look at Tehr, and third person seemed to be a mature, older lady in court dress that didn't particularily stand out, other than a look of wealth and a flowing black hair, her robe carrying an unfamiliar House insignia upon it.<br/><br/>It was then that the Duke spoke up quietly enough to not let his voice carry too far. "I was wondering if there is any particular matters you need to deal with today? I have been seeing sights and visiting the court in my time here but both Rosalyn and I could use a more friendly conversation, the aristocrats at the court are far too keen to start suggesting things such as a political marriage, and I am not keen on having Rosalyn become such a pawn." His tone serious, he looked at Tehr calmly and smiled though his eyes were still watching him. "I can see you can talk well in court, elegance is always a good trait to possess, but I think I saw already back among the halflings that there's more to the man of the House Wynt than simply the man in the court." The tone carried a bit of curious amusement in it, his eyes seeming to relax his expression warmer once more.<br/><br/>"While the Queen would wish to discuss with you privately sometime soon, there is no real rush on the timing of that, and given today is likely to wear her Majesty out I am afraid she'll be facing a severe headache by the time this is over." The Guard captain's comment was somewhat brief, as she tried to look like she wasn't really listening.
