Watching the others (ecspeically Lora and Aidan) chat, Vance leads you up a short set of stone steps to a door in the side of the main building.
To Onesimus he says, "I believed that the creature was hungry and Skazul says it is a very stupid. So it dared attack a holden as it crossed the bridge. Luckly some Purple Rose Knights were nearby." Speaking as he leads you into the foyer, and then to the great room he adds with a smile. "I took one of it's heads and was looking to take the rest when I met all of you." he says unmodestly.
"Now I shall get my brother," he says heaving a heavy sigh. "My Lord Grignard... Please um, Please make the introductions." he says noticably changing what he was about to say.
Leaving for only a moment, the crackling of the large fireplace makes the only sound in the room as you wait. Returning from the way he left Vance enters with a noble woman on his arm.
"Sister these are are guest," he says in a sweet honeyed voice. "Messengers from Lord Bairan." He finishes escorting her to a chair near the window. "My sister Rizella Valorn," he says by way of introduction losing the sweetness in his voice. "And my brother and baron of the land bestowed to my family, Vir." he says simply as an older man walks in helped by a nursemaid and cane.
His bearskin robe looks to big for his small frame almost as if it was dragging him down. He takes a seat in a hard wooden chair and waves the nursemaid away. Following the baron is a large man, armed and armored and with an air about him that he knows how to handle himself. He stands behind the baron his bald head and dark gotee giving him an almost evil look.
"Baron Valorn," Vance says "These are the messengers I told you had come." making a nod to Claude, he stays standing near his sisters chair.
