[color=E77298]"Whaa? Calby's cool though!"[/color] Anastasia had protested in surprise. She paused behind Farim as he introduced himself and smiled. [color=E77298][i]He's so formal and polite. Like when Wulfy and Auguste introduce themselves to people.[/i][/color] 

Count Damien rose promptly from his seat with a broad smile and presented a formal bow. [color=0072bc]"Ah, Shehzade Farim, what a tremendous honor to have you with us today, and to have you here in Sorian this season."[/color] he responded with enthusiasm. He then gestured to blonde man next to him, [color=0072bc] "And this, Shehzade, is my good friend, Count Landon Monet. He's traveled from the southeast to visit for a few days."[/color]

Count Monet offered a polite nod, extending his hand for a handshake, [color=AFDCE0]"Your Highness. Your reputation precedes you...I’ve heard quite a bit about your recent endeavors. They’re quite remarkable."[/color] His tone was more measured than Calbert's yet welcoming all the same. [color=AFDCE0] "It is indeed good to see you join us, and Princess Anastasia as well. She has quite the fan club among my little ones."
[/color]

Calbert, ever the charismatic, added with a flourish, [color=0072bc]"What a treat to have both of you choose to sit with us among all the lovely people here. I must confess, I'm rather excited!" [/color] His attention then shifted to Anastasia, who was visibly eager to jump into the conversation.

No longer able to contain her excitement, Anastasia threw her arms around Calbert, exclaiming, [i][color=E77298] "Hi Calby!"[/color] [/i]

Calbert laughed heartily and wrapped her in a brief hug. [color=0072bc]"Always a pleasure, my dear!"[/color]

Anastasia beamed, stepping back. She waved briefly to Count Landon with a smile, then moved to take her seat next to Farim.  The children seemed momentarily preoccupied, busying themselves with a puzzle on the floor, but she'd call their attention soon anyhow. 

As Nahir and Ece sat with them, Anastasia’s gaze quickly shifted to the Shehzadi, her eyes lighting up. [color=E77298]“Oh wow! Nahir! You look so stunning! ”[/color] Anastasia blurted out, her voice bubbling with enthusiasm. Her gaze shifted to the woman with her, picking up on her name from Farim's initial greeting. [color=E77298] "And so do you, Ece. You're so cute."[/color] She patted the seat beside her and smiled at Nahir. [color=E77298] "Please come sit with me."[/color]
