“You are fortunate then,” I said before taking another drink of ale. “Not all of us will have the luck to court and marry someone we like.”

I nodded my agreement. "I am youngest son. It is not so important that I marry importantly. I know it is not same for Vlad and Alexei. Even Sergei."

"I envy you." I took another, longer drink of ale. I knew I would have very little chance of marrying someone for the fact that I liked or loved them. When it happened, I would marry for title and position, and she had better be from L'Agnace.

"If the gods are kind, you will have same," I told him, clapping him on the shoulder.

“Thank you,” I said, smiling and pushing those thoughts away.

"So, is there things that I need to know about the City?" I inquired with a grin in an effort to turn the conversation to something a bit more lighthearted.

“I guess that depends on what you hope to get out of your time here,” I said, chuckling. I motioned to the tavern around us and the girl taking the stage, to sing it seemed. “You’ve found a great place for entertainment and pretty girls to look at.”

I chuckled. "Yes, thank you for this. Maybe I will take Sergei here. I think he will like it too."

“What’s not to like?” I agreed, laughing. “If you need a guide to more places like this, just let me know.”

"I will," I promised with a grin. It would be good to get out more, especially with someone who knew the City like Shea.

I finished my ale and set down the empty mug. “Would you like another or are you ready to go?” I asked him, fine with whichever one he chose.

"I think that I has to get home soon," I replied with a little smile. "But we need to do this again."

“I agree,” I said, smiling as I took out coins to pay for the meal and ale, laying them on the table. “You can always reach me at the palace. If I’m not there then my butler will make sure I get the missive.”

"Good, good," I replied with a smile after finishing my ale. "And time next, you must let me pay."

“Deal,” I said, grinning. “And I’ll let you know if I hear those dancing girls are performing anywhere, we can go catch a whole show.”

I chuckled as I rose from my seat. "Yes, that is a good idea. I like the dancing very much."

“So did I,” I replied, grinning as I stood as well. I looked up, spotted our waitress and winked at her. She blushed and I left her a generous tip. “The servers are enjoyable too.”

I chuckled once more. "Yes," I agreed as we made our way to the door. "Very pretty."

Once at the door, I offered him my hand and smiled. “It’s been a pleasure, Fydor. I look forward to seeing you again.”

I took his hand and shook it firmly. "Yes. Until... until next time," I said with a smile, remembering the phrase.

“Until next time,” I replied as the stable boy brought our horses out. I gave the boy some coins and swung up into the saddle. I gave Fydor a wave and then headed back to the palace. It had been a very enjoyable day and I was glad to have met Fydor. Now, I wanted a nap and I could hear my bed calling even from here.
