His mocking of the servant could prove to be correct - perhaps the man simply had no tongue. It wouldn't have been surprising to her. There had been many times when she wished to remove the tongue of one of her own servants. They were some that were best seen and never heard - yet in this case, it was downright irritating. Could the tongue have not been removed [i]after[/i] Walnut had had her question answered? Hopefully the specimen was at least being put to good use - and if it wasn't, then that truly was a shame. A good tongue should never be wasted. [color=7ea7d8]"If you lack a tongue, please bow your head,"[/color] Walnut requested. She too ignored the call. It wasn't pertinent to her thoughts at the moment and so it was nothing more than mere background noise. [color=7ea7d8]"If you do have a tongue and have failed to speak, perhaps I can rectify the situation as you seem to have no need of it,"[/color] she added coolly. Sure, they were uninvited guests in the manor but a servant who would not speak and would give no indication that they could comprehend being addressed was no use to any lord or lady. Perhaps it would be considered a service to the Shadowell family.
