Noella had quite a taste for food, and could easily notice if any funny business was going on within. Of course, taste testing for Veronica was always a risk for the huntress, but she often figured that her constitution was fine enough that some brewed up poison wasn't going to stop one that spent days and nights in the woods, especially if that person was a peasant. Peasants had to deal with nearly every illness or disease known to man, and those who survived their first decade generally had a hearty body. Sitting the ladle down back into the pot, Noella cupped her chin in thought. [color=#66FF00]"Not like my mother's cooking, but it will do enough for the Baron."[/color] She gave the servants a nod, and made her way to the next dish. Her new life as a servant of Baron Asmothe was interesting, to say the least. As Noella went to reach for the spoon, a loud noise echoed throughout the large building and its many rooms. With a sigh, the huntress set the spoon down back in the pot and spoke to the servants. [color=#66FF00]"I'll see what the noise was. Keep the food hot, but nothing more. I expect to find the same taste as before!"[/color] Despite Noella's usual kindness, her words were more of a warning to the servants should a possible assassin lurk in the crowd. She waved the chefs back to business and sprinted down the hallway towards Veronica's quarters. Gear Heart and Jack were supposed to be watching Veronica to make sure she was safe, but Noella hadn't known them long enough to be sure of their abilities. Truth be told, the noise could be anything, and that thought greatly worried the huntress. Noella found the group with Veronica, safe and sound as they were paid to keep her as. The huntress' quick eyes spotted the wall-embedded picture frame that Jack was pulling free from the wall before they settled on Veronica. [color=#66FF00]"Are you okay, Veronica?"[/color] She asked, making her way to the young child.[color=#66FF00]"It seems like... they already have the situation under control. I hope they didn't give you a fright."[/color] Her words carried the same meaning for Noella. It was one thing to see such an expensive golem face to face, but it was another thing to see it charge after Veronica to protect the child from danger. She would often shudder from thoughts of a rampaging boar that would almost shapeshift into Gear Heart. If that picture frame was a person, certainly there would be no sign of life showing due the force the golem threw it into the wall. With another but final glance to the picture frame, Noella counted her blessings and thought herself lucky that Gear Heart was on their side.
