Roger found himself looking into Captain Wolfbane's eyes for a moment, before the carriage pulled up in front of the manor house. A large contingent of uniformed servants were lined up to welcome the mistress back home. The baroness descended from the carriage. "Come quickly, we have guests and one of them in injured. Send for the doctor at once, and prepare the guest rooms." The servants scurried off to do her bidding, as a lean, older man approached them.

"Welcome back baroness. I trust your trip was satisfactory?" He was wearing a blue suit and a white cravat.

"Yes Wadsworth, quite satisfactory."
