Besides, it's Dame Tyaethe, the First and Youngest, the serious, no-nonsense founder of the Iron Rose. If there were anyone who would want to keep the knight's image proper, in this case for a good reason too. Steffen simply just let the matter fade away naturally. As the issue, or so it seemed, about Merilia returned to the picture frame, Steffen began to stagger in the amount of information to process. [color=b5a0d2]"There has been talks about Merilia, yes, since the painting came over."[/color] He said, scratching his chin. [color=b5a0d2]"But I don't think I hear anything about rabbits?"[/color] When Tyaethe mentioned Akitsushima and Merilia's concubines, his mind defaulted over to those far eastern princesses that he had heard from the collection of Vos Korvungaand tales, it reminded him a lot of the Hundis. He had never seen them in person before though, so if one were really going to show up this week, he'd be willing to greet them. Both out of curiosity as well as empathy that a foreign person likely knowing little of the local language would be quite a scary prospect. He had been through that before. [color=b5a0d2]"She has her charm, but you have a point."[/color] Trying to steer clear of Tyaethe's statement of her popularity as much as possible, Steffen simply nodded. [color=b5a0d2]"I'll keep my eyes open. If there's any lost rabbit or anything on discussion, I will certainly let you in on it."[/color] A small smile turned up on him. [color=b5a0d2]"I'm sure it's not that serious."[/color] [@Raineh Daze]
