[center][color=0072bc][h1] Lord Ithobal Julius Einther Gully [/h1][/color] [URL=http://s1248.photobucket.com/user/Tmitche23/media/Seaman_zpssique4em.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh494/Tmitche23/Seaman_zpssique4em.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [@Harley Q][@Pundii][/center] Ithobal heard his father's words loud and clear. All his life he had been a disappointment to his father and the rest of his family, but now he could finally be a productive member. This could be the moment where the Gully family becomes the strongest in the kingdom outside of the Ainsworth. They would build a thousand year dynasty out of this moment and Ithobal would be the foundation for the strengthening of his family. Ithobal made an acknowledging head nod to his father to show that he understood and they made their way over to the King and Princess Madeline. Ithobal did a quick bow before the King and allowed his father to introduce Ithobal. Arthur has been a close ally to the King for many years. This would probably help establish the relationship that Ithobal hoped to build. Ithobal saw his brother by the King's side. It was good to see his brother, but unfortunately this was not the time for informal greetings. He just made a quick nod of acknowledgement to his brother, hoping that he would be able to talk to him later in the evening. [color=0072bc]"Your Grace, Princess Madeline. It is truly an honor to be back at Corevial Castle. Out of all the places I have traveled to it is truly the most beautiful. I am sure you have been receiving many beautiful and wonderful gifts princess. Unfortunately, I could not exactly fit my gift into this castle. As being Gully's we are expert ship makers, so I have commissioned a slope for you. Though you may not have been outside of the castle before, you will one day. When that day comes when you tour your kingdom, no other ship will allow you to do it as quickly. For now I only bring a model of what will be yours."

With that, Ithobal and his father made their way away from the head table. Ithobal found a table that was relatively open and sat down with his men. He needed to get away from his father and the stress of actually living up to expectations. He poured himself some wine that he brought himself. It's not that he didn't trust the host, he just wanted to drink what he was use to. If he was going to put himself out of his comfort zone then he wants to keep some comforts. That is when he noticed a kitten that was in the room. And more importantly the raven haired woman who was holding the kitten. She was dressed as a proper lady would be dressed, with jewelry to match. When she smiled, she had a carefree look to her. This might be the last night Ithobal has to be a free man, so he decided to just go for it. [color=0072bc]You know, it's usually rude to bring an animal to a ceremony without giving it as a gift," [/color] Ithobal said trying to sound like a mix between funny and confident.
