		+	===Gueiris Checks In on Lavinia After The Riot===
		+
		+	Gueiris: comes riding up the Orsino residence in the early evening. He is wearing a dark jacket with definite some dirt and debris on it, and a sash with Highmark heraldry which he removes as dismounts.
		+
		+	Lavinia: will run down to the front door and open it for him as he comes up to the porch.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Gueiris! We saw some of the rioters go by earlier and we've been watching the street! I'm so glad to see you!
		+
		+	Lavinia: is in a white house dress and clutches a frying pan in her hand.
		+
		+	Gueiris: is trying to wipe clean his jacket
		+
		+	Gueiris: I so happy you weren't caught up in that. Nothing came this way?
		+
		+	Lavinia: Just a few groups chanting slogans with torches. They seemed to be on their way to Skyline.
		+
		+	Lavinia: They didn't seem interested in us.
		+
		+	Lavinia: will throw her arms around gueiris' waist.
		+
		+	Gueiris: They are dispersed now, so the frying pan is not required.
		+
		+	Gueiris: hugs her back
		+
		+	Lavinia: Oh! Yes, of course...
		+
		+	Lavinia: will put the frying pan down on a table inside the door when she lets go of Gueiris.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Please, come in. Can I get you anything?
		+
		+	Gueiris: Thank you. Something to drink would be greatly appreciated. With a little kick, if possible. The last few hours have been unenjoyable.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Of course.
		+
		+	Lavinia: will ask one of the servants to bring some dwarven rum for him.
		+
		+	Lavinia: So you were there?
		+
		+	Gueiris: I was called in after things started to help get the situation under control. Some people got hurt bad by the rioters, although I hadn't heard much of the specifics.
		+
		+	Gueiris: It mostly just took a show of force to get the crowd to disperse.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Are you ok? You're not injured, are you?
		+
		+	Gueiris: sips the rum appreciatively
		+
		+	Gueiris: I am fine, if not a little more disheveled than I would prefer to be in front of you. The rioters should appreciate the fact that they did not injure someone like myself.
		+
		+	Gueiris: And I am truly happy that you nor your family suffered anything more than worry.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Thank you for coming to check on us. Thankfully nothing seems to have spread this far east.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I assure you, if they had tried to get in here they would have been in for a challenge. Between my frying pan and mother's yelling.
		+
		+	Gueiris: chuckles
		+
		+	Gueiris: or you could subdue them with pastries
		+
		+	Lavinia: Well, I like to think I would save that contingency for emergencies only.
		+
		+	Lavinia: smiles.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I am glad that you are ok as well. I had worried that you might be sent to deal with it.
		+
		+	Gueiris: I still have my families obligations to support Highmark guard in times of need. That will remain whenever I am in the city.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I suppose I shall have to get used to worrying. Fortunately, I have lots of practice.
		+
		+	Gueiris: I would not ask you to not worry, for I would worry if our roles were reversed. Just trust in my abilities, and my desire to always come back to you, to see me safely through.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I do.
		+
		+	Lavinia: takes Gueiris' hand.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I have seen your abilities and your desires. I know how formidable they both are.
		+
		+	Gueiris: Well... I'm...
		+
		+	Gueiris: flusters
		+
		+	Gueiris: I do love you.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I... I love you too.
		+
		+	Lavinia: seems equally flustered now.
		+
		+	Gueiris: Did you want some rum?
		+
		+	Lavinia: clears her hroat and nods.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Yes. Please.
		+
		+	Gueiris: gets her a small snifter
		+
		+	Lavinia: Kitty and I went shopping for wedding things today. I still can't believe it's actually happening.
		+
		+	Gueiris: That's great! I'm sure you will look outstanding in what you chose. It has frills and poofs out like this right?
		+
		+	Gueiris: makes a gesture that has his arms wider than Lavinia is tall
		+
		+	Lavinia: As if I would be caught dead in anything without frills and poofs!
		+
		+	Lavinia: Have you put any thought into what you will wear? My sister has suggested something to show off your tattoos. She seems to think I should try to make everyone else jealous. I don't think I'll have to try, honestly.
		+
		+	Gueiris: While I would happily consider any suggestion, as such ceremonies are not my expertise, I feel it may be hard to be respectable, at least for the ceremony without a proper jacket on.
		+
		+	Gueiris: Afterward... I could always claim I was hot?
		+
		+	Lavinia: Well, that is certainly true.
		+
		+	Lavinia: smiles mischeivously.
		+
		+	Gueiris: and what have you been telling your sister about my tattoos?
		+
		+	Lavinia: blushes.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Oh... I... I mean...
		+
		+	Lavinia: ...nothing.
		+
		+	Gueiris: so that much eh?
		+
		+	Lavinia: takes a sip of her rum.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I... have no idea what you're talking about.
		+
		+	Gueiris: Well I do hope she likes me, and has gotten over that messed up confusion from before.
		+
		+	Lavinia: She wants me to be happy. She seems content that you make me so.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I've explained the circumstances of the... incident to her.
		+
		+	Gueiris: I'm glad that is sorted.
		+
		+	Gueiris: Thank you for the rum... but I really should not be staying long, as this is quite impromptu, and might be a little inappropriate.
		+
		+	Gueiris: I just need to make sure you all were safe.
		+
		+	Lavinia: nods.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Of course. Thank you for coming.
		+
		+	Lavinia: I... I'm glad you did.
		+
		+	Gueiris: takes a quick glance around, and will lean in to kiss her
		+
		+	Lavinia: will sigh and lean into him.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Mmmm...
		+
		+	Lavinia: You should go before we truly do disgrace ourselves.
		+
		+	Gueiris: Yes... yes... we do want this wedding to go off without complications.
		+
		+	Gueiris: I will see you soon?
		+
		+	Lavinia: Yes, of course. I have some very exciting cloth and flower samples for you to look through.
		+
		+	Lavinia: Not to mention the invitations.
		+
		+	Gueiris: I look forward to it.
		+
		+	Lavinia: smiles.
		+
		+	Gueiris: downs the last of the rum, and will slip out the door
		+
		+	Lavinia: will watch him from the doorway as he rides off.

		+
		+	Zanne Machel: Marquess Stillmarch, thank you for coming. Can I offer you something to eat or drink?
		+
		+	Lamont: a drink, please. Thank you, your grace.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: nods, and will go to fix Lamont a drink.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: I understand congratulations are in order.
		+
		+	Lamont: Yes, thank you. We will be releasing a formal public announcement soon.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: I'm happy to hear it, truly.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: walks over to hand Lamont his drink.
		+
		+	Lamont: will take it
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: I would like to also offer my apologies.
		+
		+	Lamont: oh?
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: House Machel has been delinquent in its duties to you and your family, cousin, and I hope we can, in future, offer some remuneration for that debt.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: Our attention was directed elsewhere in the Confederacy, and my father's trust in your uncle allowed his corruption to fester. I offer this solely as explanation, not excuse.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: To think what it has cost us all...
		+
		+	Lamont: nods and takes a sip of his drink
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: I hope it will offer some solace that he will face justice. We apprehended him attempting to flee the city the day of the riot.
		+
		+	Lamont: It.... I see.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: Given my personal connection to the case, I won't be trying it, but I have the utmost faith in my colleague who will be. It will be a sealed case, out of the public eye, but, I assure you, Thurston will cause no further harm.
		+
		+	Lamont: ...What are the charges?
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: Corruption and conspiracy of multiple kinds, on multiple counts. It may still take some time to ferret out all of his crimes, but we've enough evidence to bring the first charges. My colleague is even considering charging him with apostasy and handing him over to the Asmodeans, but we'd prefer he remain in Machel custody, of course.
		+
		+	Lamont: nods
		+
		+	Lamont: ...I'm sorry, even with some expectations, this is quite a lot
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: nods.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: It's not my intention to overwhelm you, but I would assume your realize this presents something of a power vacuum that will need addressing quickly.
		+
		+	Josh: (you*)
		+
		+	Lamont: yes, of course
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: First and foremost, there is no public head of the Allard family at the moment.
		+
		+	Lamont: nods slowly, and takes another drink
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: Now, legally, you are still Thurston's ward until you marry, with his consent. Luckily, however, my father may stand in his stead, and I have a signed document offering his enthusiastic consent for your match.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: And, obviously, upon your marriage, all assets and responsibilities of your station will fully revert to you.
		+
		+	Lamont: Thank you.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: It is, truly, our duty to you.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: offers a small fortifying smile at that.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: If I might ask, have you given much thought to what you'll do after your wedding?
		+
		+	Lamont: ...how do you mean?
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: gestures towards one of a pair of chairs near the window looking out on the lawn.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: You've heard the rumors about the ongoing conflict in the south?
		+
		+	Lamont: (gestures as in let's sit?)
		+
		+	Josh: (Yeah)
		+
		+	Lamont: I have, yes.
		+
		+	Lamont: will take a seat
		+
		+	Lamont: I have been expecting to hear that my unit is to be depoyed there, and I expected to be sent with them....
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: That is...one possibility.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: I understand there was some difficulty with your unit during your last deployment? Above and beyond the obvious.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: likewise takes a seat.
		+
		+	Lamont: looks out the window.
		+
		+	Lamont: ...the difficulty was not with my unit.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: nods.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: I spoke with cousin Alcina. She speaks highly of you, but said your dragonmark can be...difficult.
		+
		+	Lamont: nods.
		+
		+	Lamont: I appreciate her assessment.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: However despicable your uncle is, with him in custody, we've lost an asset. If you're willing, and with further training, we think you'd make a more than equal replacement.
		+
		+	Lamont: ...I see.
		+
		+	Lamont: Of course I am willing to serve in whatever role you think woudl be most suitable
		+
		+	Lamont: says, clearly a little overwhelmed with everything but trying to keep up
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: On a more personal note, I think Thurston's methods were counterproductive to long-term stability. Since your return to the city, you've demonstrated an ability to attract and coordinate disparate allies, under difficult circumstances, towards an outcome beneficial for all parties.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: Excepting, of course, the obvious.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: smiles a little grimly at that.
		+
		+	Lamont: nods
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: It is my belief that that sort of inter-House, cross-Confederacy cooperation, rather than rivalry, is the only real path forward.
		+
		+	Lamont: I do agree, especially as we are being drawn into more external matters
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: It's fortunate you bring that up.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: You know about the Ebemar resolution working through Parliament? I know it was in the papers, but you've also had quite a lot to be dealing with, of course.
		+
		+	Lamont: No, I haven't.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: A resolution has been introduced that will provide a possible pathway towards Ebemar's application for membership in the Confederacy. Confidentially, I'm not sure its in either our or their interests to see it to successful inclusion, but it will provide momentum for allied reformist groups in our closest ally on Ahkas.
		+
		+	Lamont: I see.
		+
		+	Lamont: considers, then adds,
		+
		+	Lamont: I believe there are at least some in the delegation here who view it similarly
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: nods.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: What would you think of deployment to Ebemar, rather than Per An?
		+
		+	Lamont: I should take some time to consider it more carefully, but, based on all you've said, I think I would see it favourably
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: I would also add that it is likely a much safer assignment, if, say, a young officer wanted to bring their spouse along.
		+
		+	Lamont: He would certainly appreciate that, and I believe he would appreciate the opportunity
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: nods.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: There's still some time for you to discuss and decide, but the sooner we know one way or the other, the sooner we can plan accordingly.
		+
		+	Lamont: I understand.
		+
		+	Lamont: I will give it due consideration. And I should have few other concerns to occupy me.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: nods, and offer her hand.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: Please let me know if there's any way I can help.
		+
		+	Zanne Machel: Truly.
		+
		+	Lamont: will take it
		+
		+	Lamont: Thank you, for all of this.
