Katelyn watches as the gate raises, she seems interested, considering the gates in Mandisa were basically large wooden doors. "That iron stuff is really interesting! It's like gold but for building!" I can't wait to meet my new friend King Olaf. Is he a nice person?" Katelyn seemed extra cheery ever since they arrived. Her patience was replaced with excitement as her long journey ended. "Even the people changed!" She seemed to look at all the differences between her and the people of Cobenstock and relate them back to Mandisa. She tried to remain polite but her excitement got the better of her as she watched common people go about their business, and for some reason, she was extremely interested and amused. She waved to the common folk and occasionally started a conversation as they passed by. Although she was very polite and patient, she related many different things back to her religion. She didn't mean to annoy people, but it was all she knew. "When will we meet the king?"

Katelyn smiles as the man kisses her hand. She had never had that happen in Mandisa because they felt she was too young. "A pleasure to meet you as well. I thank the gods for a chance to meet such a generous man. I am very interested in your culture and lifestyle, Sir. I cannot thank you enough for giving me the opportunity to experience it. From what I have heard, you are the one who is meant to be my 'suitor'." Katelyn was very formal as they introduced themselves. She wanted to make a very positive impression on her lovely host, who, to her knowledge, wanted to have a strong alliance and be her friend. She looks up at the palace as they near it. Katelyn seemed to be admiring its sheer beauty and architectural design as they traveled. She acted extremely polite because she wanted to be treated as an adult. She was the youngest girl she had seen so far. Her one pet peeve was not being treated as an adult, though she could be childish at times. Katelyn was prepared for this moment with all the classes she was required to take on elegance as well as being proper and polite. "Please, do tell me about what wondrous things happen in Cobenstock."
"Oh?" She begins to walk in, at his side, almost clinging to him childishly. She had been watching many different people speaking of the 'Great Hunt'. She was very interested she put it off until he spoke of it again. Katelyn looked at the elegant structure carved into the mountain. She was having a blast, learning all of these new things about her allies. "I can't help but notice that you have no river. Without a river what do you do during the Season of the Flood?" Katelyn had yet to understand that there were differences between cultures. She had assumed every country celebrated her holidays. She also very much enjoyed being around Olaf. To her he seemed like such a friendly and elegant king. 

Katelyn seemed awestruck at the intricate palace. She had started to wonder if they used magic to carve all of it out. She touches the stone wall of the mountain, seemingly interested at such a small detail. "Even your stone is different." He soon started telling her about something called the 'Great Hunt'. She entered the mountainous palace as they conversed. "King Olaf Sir, what is 'Great Hunt'? I was never taught that in my classes." She looked up at him with curiosity "And..." She paused trying to think of a way not to be rude. "Why don't you worship?" She stated her question slowly trying not to be mean to her new found friend, yet still intent on learning why he didn't follow her religion.
