The fair maiden made swift and fleeting footsteps as she made her way through the well-lit corridors to reach her quarters, her fair chestnut curls dancing upon her shoulders and back of her neck as she walked. Her arms caressed her well-made lute in her arms as always. She kept her thoughts out of mind while she was out in the open, sometimes glancing to the side as she passed anything that seemed interesting, such as the odd suit of armour or painting. She then felt odd in one particular room she went through, but didn't stop nor look aside, getting the distinct feeling of being watched. She continued on her way cautiously, walking for a while before finally catching sound of a pursuer on her tail. 

The fair maiden turned around worriedly, only to find it was just a pursuer of the courtly kind.
[B][I]“Mi’lady! Mi’lady!”[/i][/B] He called out after her, keeping an even pace as he caught up with the young maiden. [B][I]“Ah...! My apologies… I wanted to applaud you for your admirable performance, and also seek to know you more if your ladyship would please?”[/i][/B] The man began. The fair maiden bit her lip a little and glanced around nervously for a moment.
[B]"You wish to know [I]'me'[/I] more?"[/B] She asked softly, unsure of how else to respond. She recognized the man as Baron Lucius Garthois of Greymont, from the time she lived with-- From the time she lived there.

Lucius' eyes widened at his abrupt entrance, and he knelt sincerely. 
[B][I]“Ah! Where are my manners? Mi’lady, I am Baron Lucius Garthois, at your service…”[/i][/B] He introduced, holding up his hand to accept the fair maiden’s own if she saw fit to grace him. She tilted her head slightly as she bestowed her hand upon Lucius' own out of courtesy.
[B]"A pleasure to meet you, mi'lord. I am Mirabelle Valois, songstress and newest addition to his Majesty's court. Charmed."[/B] She introduced herself in return, sounding humble and modest in her words and countenance. [B]"If you don't mind me being so bold, mi'lord, may I ask why his lordship pursues me in spite of any of the other fair courtiers?"[/B] Mirabelle asked with a tone of wonder. She was more than eager to retire for the night, but was going to deal with this nuisance with care.
