Fatima beat him to an answer, but nonetheless, he chose to expand upon it. [color=20B2AA]“Well, I can only tell you about the Aristocratic perspective from my homeland,”[/color] he began spoking slowly, in consideration, rolling the words on his tongue. He formulated his thoughts, then began a steady explanation. [color=20B2AA]“I was raised with servants, and as a child, they were as much my guardians and secondary authority figures as they were my helpers. And while they are paid to serve, they are often considered allies, friends, or even part of the family. Even if they were not, there are certainly many things no one would think to ask of a servant…[i]unlike here[/i],”[/color] he muttered the last part quietly, so only the present company would hear. [color=20B2AA]“It’s one of the ways to show off one’s wealth, prestige, influence…power, basically,”[/color] he stated with half-a-shrug. [color=20B2AA]“With the size of our estates, not having servants would be untenable. Clothes are often designed in such a way that you couldn’t put it on by yourself,”[/color] Jandar noted. [color=20B2AA]“It is desirable to have good servants, and for that, being known as a fair employer is key,”[/color] the Warlord stressed, voice quiet but sure. He was getting a bit restless, and the cards hadn’t really favoured him as he thought they would, so he decided to quit while he was ahead. [color=20B2AA]“Fold. I’m off to stretch my legs a bit,”[/color] he stated, glancing at Fatima. He didn’t think she’d forbid it, but checked her reaction nonetheless. Then he made his way out into the town, beginning an exploration. The Kaeleeran did not want to obviously stick out as an ignorant newcomer, however, and as such kept his gaze straight forwards, his pace as brisk as the natives’. He adopted the air of being on an important business, though occasionally stopped at a stall to peruse the traders’ wares. Jandar enhanced his hearing, keeping a lookout for any interesting rumours or information as he wandered the town.
