The Lady and the Ambassador

The weather has been warmer, these last few days.

The snow was removed from the roads, and carriages returned to travel from and to Stoneyard.

Now, it's rather comfortable to come here from Kyre's capital, Albios.

Ambassador Zolokis, uncle Nicholas, came here a few minutes ago. He's now waiting in one of the public living rooms. I couldn't meet him in the Lady's personal suite, so I had the maids prepare a living room for the occasion.

Stoneyard has plenty of rooms, it's time I use some of them.

«Good afternoon, Ambassador,» I say while crossing the door. «I'm glad you found the time to come visit.»

«Oh, are you going to keep our conversation formal, Lady Kyre?» he asks and gets up.

He stretches out his hand, and I let him peck mine before taking place on the armchair. The Ambassador sits back on the sofa, and we can finally start conversing.
