Alexander was greeted by a waiting Takifz the moment he entered the boundary of the estate.

"Welcome my lord, welcome," The old man bowed at Alexander, to which Alexander smiled and replied, "Takfiz, it's good to see you. How are you, my man?"

"Good, good, all by the grace of milord," The old man with a head full of white hair repeatedly nodded to emphasize his answer.

The two then continued with conversation for a while, making small talk as Alexander asked about his caretaker about various things like the general situation of the workshops, the extent of the ongoing renovations, and lastly about his personal life and his grandson Kala.

"Kala is good, thank you for asking your Grace." Takfiz was excited when the topic of his grandson was bought up, as he quickly informed, "He can talk a bit now and even do some simple maths,"
