It was his most important personal duty to tend to the royal family's safety, especially the princess, and so he'd arrived with the royal siblings arrayed in the gilded half-plate armor that was the mark of his station as both a knight of the crown and the leader of the Griffon Knights. Ever respectful to even the lowliest of servants, Eiygil dismissed his red-feathered griffon companion, crimson, and sent her off to find a place to roost - (she wouldn't go far) before he entered ahead of the two royals to announce them, as was customary, and removed his helm to give a respectful bow to the servant girl that welcomed him while he waited for his charges to make their entrance. While he was truly impressed by the estate, and moreso by its lovely inhabitants, he remained vigilant and attended to his duties first and foremost.<br/><br/>"Please inform Lady von Haj that the prince and princess have arrived." notably, he never announced his own arrival, though by all rights he could. It just seemed too...pretentious to do so. Still he hardly needed to, as at 7' tall, with a well-muscled frame and blood-red hair that reached his mid-back he was one of the most distinct-looking people in all the land, and found it virtually impossible to go unnoticed no matter where he went.
