Gareth simply nodded along, and as he ate he simply paid attention and said nothing, politely chewing on bread. He wondered about what he would wear to the feast. Maybe a simple vest and dress clothes would suit him well for the occasion, and silently he agreed with himself on it and made a note to change clothes when he left to prepare himself. After all, he'd need to look more than just presentable, he needed to be [i]attractive[/i] if he wanted to impress anyone in the court of the king. Now was a time to get his name on the lips of others, to be the promising worker, and perhaps increase his reputation, and he'd be damned if he couldn't do just that. The bread was quite delectable then in particular, and Harker surmised that a good fortune might await him.
