"That's what I thought. Well, I'll see what we can do, but there are only so ships that go between the continents often enough, and fewer that can get a delivery safely all the way to Alsene."
"That's all right. Her husband works, he just doesn't--" He hesitates. ". . . he just doesn't always use the money he earns to support her."
"I understand," Hithrol says solemnly, "I'll talk to my associates in Atlantia, see if I can work something out. Aside from that, though, I think we're all set, unless you have any more questions for me, so let's see about getting you set up in a house. Dernis told me he showed you around one?"

"Yes, he did." Azril is careful not to mention the fact that they already moved him into it. "It looks great."

"Yes, he did." Azril is careful not to mention the fact that they already moved him into it. "It looks great."
"Wonderful. He'll take you back there after dinner to get you moved in and everything set up. Speaking of dinner, it is about that time. Why don't you head on down to the mess hall?"
"Yes, he did." Azril is careful not to mention the fact that they already moved him into it. "It looks great."

He grins. "Sounds great to me!"
OOC: I'll assume Azril does that.
IC: Hithrol dismisses Azril and he heads to the mess hall. Approaching it, he observes Aretgarlja, Olifin, and Kaigan eating in the pavilion area. Inside, many people have gathered to eat.
At one table are Dernis, Tya, and Kira. At another are Obsar and a several of his assistants. Zariana and Eldren sit at a third. There are other tables occupied by strangers and a couple empty ones. Azril does not see Maicyn at any of them Where will he sit?

Azril heads over to Dernis, Tya, and Kira.
Dernis waves at him and scoots over to make room. "How'd the meeting go with my dad?"
He thanks the server and returns to the table where Dernis and the others sit.
"How are you liking things so far?" asks Tya.
"I love it here!" he blurts like an excited little kid. "It's incredible! This fortress, all the dragons, and everything I could learn. . . ! It's overwhelming, really." He feeds Robin a bit of his food.

Tya smiles. "That's wonderful."
Before she says anything else, they are joined by Hithrol, who greets them all, welcoming Azril to the table. "No Maicyn?" he asks.
