[QUOTE="Scotley, post: 6143102, member: 11520"] Henry sets about spending the 'enjoy your in vesture' funds with a purpose. He selects a riding horse for the trip and three pack animals. He seeks the guidance of one of his father's calvary officers selecting local breeds of high quality yet reasonable price in hopes of selling them in the capital for a profit after his journey. He revisits the tailor who is working on his guidon and gets clothes in the latest court fashions made as well as a traveling outfit for the journey. Seeing he won't have to spend on lodging he instead seeks out some tasteful decorations to dress up the tent. Hangings, and matching pillows, a box of incense and a decorative burner, an everburning torch as well as some theater masks--drama and comedy to reflect his current studies. He picks up a few more books on the royals, law, history and such for both reading and decoration. He includes a couple of banners to hang at the door identifying his house and personal sigil of the black horse courant along with some plain banners in dove and charcoal with a small silver Vasa crest to replace them with on the day of the in vesture. He takes a similar approach to the mounts for some provisions for the five days prior to the in vesture (not the food for 1000 from the local region, I'll get to that later). He selects a few cases of good local wine he can get a good price with an eye toward selling any left-overs at a profit. He'll get a small cask of ale and beer as well as some brandy and a little liquor. He'll arrange for generous quantities some things that will travel well such as honey, caviar, cheese and smoked meats purchased here and reserve some cash for breads, pastries fruits and other perishables upon arrival. He'll hire a personal valet to attend him and maintain the clothes, food etc for the week of travel and festivities. This gentleman should come with the best references and look the part as well. He'll set him up with fine livery as well. Generous wages with a very handsome bonus should his services be exemplary. My expectation is that he'll be able to cut a dashing figure in the latest fashion and put out a very nice spread in a well appointed tent with a servant on hand to take care of all the details. He'll plan to use all the money, reserving some for emergencies, but if he has food and drink left he'll sell it and return the cost to the royal household, but keeping any profits he might secure. He'll keep careful and detail records for William Kane, Minister of Finance. [/QUOTE]
