<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I see. Shall we discuss it over tea?
*Closes the door to your left*
I can make it if you’ll wait just a moment.

@Multifarious

*Smiles*
That’d be wonderful, thank you.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Of course.
*Steps out of your way and holds the door open, frowning*
I hope it’s not about Revellyn again. We know it’s a problem…

@Multifarious

*Politely steps inside behind Roland while you hold the door*
Thank you.

*Freezes*
M-Mo...
*clears my throat*
Ma'am... We're here with a message from Tzar Macha. May we come in?

@Valiance

*Nods, wordlessly*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Remains still for another moment before knocking on the door*

@Valiance

*Takes a careful step back and to the left, waiting*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Walks up to the door, stopping just in front of it and taking a deep breath*
Even if I know it isn’t, it feels too real.

@Valiance

*Stares for a moment, but then my expression softens*
Home. I can see how this is hard.

*Leaps into the air and vaults over the gate*

@Valiance

*Grabs onto the gate and gracefully climbs over*

*Chuckles*
No, not Roland. Rhosyn.

@Valiance

It was worth a try. Lead the way, big man.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Stops outside the gate of the manor, mounted the arch of which is a crest consisting of a purple shield beneath the letter “R”*
Brother.

@Valiance

I take it the R stands for Roland?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I have my priorities. Ruari was never a killer, but he defends one.

@Valiance

He’s a bodyguard of some kind?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

It being a trap just means Revellyn is here. Or Ruari, almost as good.

@Valiance

“Almost”?
