Vaughn Antain smiles at R'tashana. "So, what did you think?"
R'tashana Hhaig shrugs. It was different but interesting
Vaughn Antain: "There should be another in another moon, if you're interested.
R'tashana Hhaig: "Your god gave us death so mine has something to do."
Vaughn Antain chuckles. "Well, I personally follow another, but each deity has its place. All should be honored."
R'tashana Hhaig: "Oh. I try not to delve into other's personal beliefs. I guess I just assumed."
Vaughn Antain: "Anyroad, feel free to mingle. The people here are very kind. I'm sure you'll make many friends."
R'tashana Hhaig: "I would think about it, but I need to get back to Ul'dah. I have some pressing business matters to attend to. Thank you again for inviting me to this interesting ceremony.":
Vaughn Antain: "I hope you'll come with me to the next one."
Nathan Telluride: "Vaughn, you were right. I think you tore out a few hearts."
Vaughn Antain smiles lightly at Nathan. "Not the intent. But your song has done the same, I'm sure."
Nathan Telluride: "The truest ones always have an impact, though... I think I best hide Minfilia for a few days. That girl gets ideas."
Vaughn Antain chuckles. "Well, hopefully next time you have a meet, I won't clam up. I'm...still very embarrassed about that."
Nathan Telluride: "You, embarrassed? I won't hear of it. People need to be bowled over on occasion, and you have the wherewithal to make it happen."
Vaughn Antain: "You are too kind, Sir Nathan."

Vaughn Antain: "Thank you once again, Lady Jancis. It was a pleasure."
Jancis Milburga: "Oh Lord Vaughn, I should say such words to you! Your story was so bittersweet but fitting."
Leilani Leilai: Thank you Miss Jancis!
Leilani Leilai: It was th'bestest pilgrimage I've ever been on!
Vaughn Antain clenches his jaw with a light smile, stepping aside for the lalafell.
Leilani Leilai: oph! Sorry Mister.
Leilani Leilai scampers back bashfully!
Vaughn Antain smiles at Leilani Leilai.
Jancis Milburga: "Glad you think so, Lady."
Leilani Leilai scampers next to Vaughn a bit and lowers her voice in a whisper.
Jancis Milburga leans back from the pair, smiling.
Vaughn Antain chuckles. "It's alright. It's a common mistake. I don't take it personally."
Leilani Leilai agrees wholeheartedly with Vaughn Antain.
Jancis Milburga: "Be safe."
Vaughn Antain: "But, yes, I just wanted to thank you again for the lovely pilgrimage. And I'm sorry I was unavailable for the last one."
Jancis Milburga: "You were missed, but fondly thought of. Althyk knows we all cross paths when we can. I hope everyone is well at home."
Vaughn Antain nods. "We're...getting by. In fact, one of my charges was able to make it. So, we're thankful for that."
Jancis Milburga: "The lady you were sitting with? How delightful, I saw face aglow when you finished. I would not think you did not sing around the house or get caught doing so, at least."

Nathan Telluride nods to Jancis. "So, still nervous, even after another successful event, my dear?"
Jancis Milburga laughs awkwardly. "Seeing so many people here, my worries are for naught. Thank you. You were right."
Nathan Telluride: "Oh, a little stage fright is healthy, but I don't know anyone with a better track record than yourself, Lady Jancis."
Jancis Milburga: "Not including yourself? You are, ah, a natural. Your song was quite touching with just you. I dare think some people in the crowd would have loved to catch your gaze."
Nathan Telluride nods, grinning foxlike. "Possibly, but Minfilia is a jealous song partner. Cora desperately wanted to come, but Althyk happened."
Jancis Milburga: "As it did to many. You will give her my best? I did hear your duet at the Ball, it was whimsical."
Nathan Telluride: "I will do that and more, my lady. I will give you back to your guests."
Nathan Telluride clears his throat near Jancis. "The lady of the evening finally has a moment of down time. Well earned, I'd say."
Jancis Milburga: "Yes. Blessed with a clear sky, too. Am happy. Thank you for speaking to Oscare, I know not what of, but I did see you by the water."
Nathan Telluride nods, a hint of solemnity in his voice. "He seems troubled by something. I'd bid you see to him when you have a moment. A man's heart sometimes needs a man's words, and sometimes, a woman's touch."
Jancis Milburga nods, looking grateful, "I will. Dare believe he surely needs both, then he would be willing to share the weight of all the burdens he carries."
Nathan Telluride: "Big burdens make for strong shoulders, but even the strongest should rest now and then. I have no idea how close you are to him, so forgive my presumptions if they are unfounded."
Jancis Milburga: "Presumptions? I do try to be a good friend, for my part. Alas, I seem to cause more woe than encouragement of late."
Nathan Telluride chews the inside of his cheek. "I'm probably not the best qualified to fight off a sad spirit right now. I tend to be rather too abrupt and garish in my cheer."
Jancis Milburga: "Is said to be around people you wish to be like. I would call you welcome company in that regard. He use to be quite garish."
Nathan Telluride: "So I've seen, and remembered! Though... I wonder who I should be best to be around, then. Ah, perish that thought. Maybe a good vintage might help. The old cures can be the best."
Jancis Milburga: "Then as a garish man, do you have any suggested favorites? A red?"
Nathan Telluride: "Madjack Red, as I was suggesting to the good Mr. Arcmantle. Smoothest, most potent Rum in my reckoning. It turns men into slavering beasts, and slavering beasts into sophisticated, well-spoken raucous beasts."
Raisan Arcmantle: "Talking about me behind my back Nathan?"
Nathan Telluride: "Not at all, sir. Simply suggesting a means by which Lady Jancis might pacify a mutual friend."
Raisan Arcmantle: "I jest, I wanted to ask you, would you happen to have any sway with the seer? I would like to invite her to our tavern to perhaps offer her cards to our guests."
Nathan Telluride looks to his right. "The seer is not an acquaintance of mine, but you might perhaps inquire about bringing her into your future. Lady Jancis is probably your best contact; she seems to know everyone, or know someone who does."
Raisan Arcmantle: "I see, I'm not acquainted with Lady Jancis, would you perhaps introduce me?"
Nathan Telluride: "I was considering doing just that, if she is still amenable to conversations."
Jancis Milburga: "Forgive me!"
Nathan Telluride: "Lady Jancis, this dapper gent is Mister Raisan Arcmantle, and he was hoping to make your acquaintance."
Raisan Arcmantle: "Good eve M'lady. A pleasure to meet you."
Jancis Milburga: "A honor to meet you Lord Arcmantle."
Jancis Milburga: "You surely must be a busy man, to come on pilgrimage is no small sacrifice surely."
Nathan Telluride: "As a member of our Coalition of Performers, milady, you are a valuable contact for someone whose company seeks people of talent and dedication to entertain, and Mr. Arcmantle seems to be in search of just that."
Raisan Arcmantle: "Nathan here tells me you might have some sway on the seer offering her cards today, would it be possible to speak with her or have her asked to join us on our estate for tavern night and offer her cards to the guests that attend?"
Nathan Telluride adjusts his tunic. "I should be moving on - there is a lady who could not be here tonight, who needs to hear for herself how she inspired people tonight. Do walk with Fortune, Mr. Arcmantle.
Nathan Telluride: "Goodnight to you both!"
Raisan Arcmantle: "Of course, don't allow me to keep you. I shall see you tavern night then."
Jancis Milburga: "I shall catch up with Master Telluride, for you Lord. And if I can be of any assistance to you in the future I will gladly do so."
Raisan Arcmantle nods in approval. "About the seer? would it be possible to invite her to our tavern night to offer her cards to the guests?
Jancis Milburga: "Ah Lady Iskierka. She travels the realm much. I can surely ask if she would have time and the strength to impart her skill."
Raisan Arcmantle: "That would be greatly appreciated, I'm sure the company and guests alike would enjoy."
Raisan Arcmantle: "She is very gifted."
Jancis Milburga nods, "How long are the doors open at the tavern now that the location has moved?"
Raisan Arcmantle: "I'm in the understanding that tavern night will be held at its normal time and length as usual, but of course at our new estate in Lavender Beds, Ward Fire, Plot Fifty Eight."
Raisan Arcmantle: "I can make sure a table and chairs are set aside for her should she decide to join us."
Raisan Arcmantle waves off Jancis Milburga. "Please, just Raisan, or Rai as most call me, I've not used the title Lord since I was a child, in another life."
Jancis Milburga nods, "As you like, Raisan."
Jancis Milburga: "Thank you for staying as long as you have, Lynx."
Leggerless Hanzou takes a glance at Jancis. "I'm only doing what I was contracted to do; make sure no harm came to the performers for the *entire* duration of the event."
Jancis Milburga: "I have heard of another diviner, though she had been called away on other business this night. Uses the waters and pools, might not work in a tavern."
Leggerless Hanzou refrains from speaking further, so as not to interrupt the current conversation between Raisan and Jancis.
Jancis Milburga: "A stage? What great fortune! I mostly work with the priesthood, but I will do what I can. You would wish someone to be available at every door opening?"
Raisan Arcmantle: "I'm not sure every door opening is needed, we normally just allow the use of the stage for any who would wish to offer their talent."
Raisan Arcmantle: "Any are welcome to use the stage during tavern night."
Jancis Milburga smiles, "I think that is enough to spread around in order to have bards and storytellers come calling."
Raisan Arcmantle: "You should come see what we have to offer, I think once you see the stage, I think it would offer a much grander idea of what I speak of, I don't think words can offer fully what it's like."
Jancis Milburga: "If I do get Lady Iskierka to agree, she might need a quieter spot to work if it is a full bar scene. I will keep in touch with any details I receive."
Raisan Arcmantle: "Oh, before I forget, I have your name, but I think I missed your company name. Of which should I tell our leadership that I spoke with?"
Jancis Milburga bows her head, "I do reside with a small company that serves outside jobs for the Maelstrom and other kind-minded patrons. Lady Faye and Sir Val are generous and had me under their roof moons ago."
Raisan Arcmantle: "Very good, I shall let them know I spoke with you, I do invite you to come see our new estate soon, I would like to really show you what we can offer you and your people."
Leggerless Hanzou her ears perk up a bit at hearing the phrase 'Lady Faye' from Jancis' response, but she still stays mute.
Jancis Milburga: "I am beyond humbled at such an invitation. Thank you."
Raisan Arcmantle: "Very good, I'll not keep you from your most patient other guest here, please forgive me for takin up too much of your time. When you arrive, please feel free to ask for me directly. I'll be more then happy to show you around."
