Although she still seems somewhat flustered, your words definitely calmed Euphemia down somewhat. [b]"Al-Always happy to help."[/b] She said quietly, before bowing to you and Lady Agnes in turn and scurrying back to the crowd from whence she came.

[b]"I apologize, Lady Agnes. I can become too focused when I lack an answer. I should not have worried you over such a minor thing."[/b]

[b]"Oh it was no worry at all."[/b] Lady Agnes assured you. [b]"In fact, I quite enjoy puzzling over the mystery behind these bouts of fixation Flurry has every so often."[/b]

When you look over at your grandfather's gazebo, you see fewer guests there than there were before. And from what you can tell, the old man himself is in relatively good spirits.

[b]"I think we could both use a refreshment after that small excitement, I am going to get us both something to drink. Is there anything in particular you would prefer?"[/b]

[b]"Surprise me."[/b] Was Lady Agnes's reply.

You went on to acquire the drinks without any notable difficulty. Soon after, you were off to see your grandfather with Lady Agnes in tow after she happily accepted your invitation.

As the two of you stepped on to the gazebo, Aldric Everheart turned to look at you. He adjusted his glasses a little and squinted for a moment, then his face lit up with what appeared to be recognition. [b]"Ah! Cassandra! Dmitri![/b]" Aldric exclaimed. [b]"It warms my heart to think that you would carve some time out of your big day to come see us."[/b] The old man looked over his shoulder and called out then. [b]"Melia? Melia! Come quickly dearest! Cassandra and her husband are here!"[/b]

Melia was the name of Aldric's wife, your grandmother. She died a little over ten years ago. From experience, you know reminding him of this rarely ends well.
