The tea arrives in moments along with coffee for Grond. It is rich being perhaps half milk with a blend of spices and a little honey. Gustav chats about the history of the place a little. "This house was once the subject of a bitter dispute between daughters over who should inherit it. In the end the lawyers got all the money and they had to sell the place. A old artist bought it and rumor has it that he was enamored with his seasonal visitors," he gestures at the Sea Nymphs, "and just swam away with them. The place sat empty for some time before the current owner bought it. It was tied up in probate for years, because no one could prove that the artist was lost. Eventually, back taxes got to be high enough the place was taken by the government and sold again. We know little about her and she rarely leaves her second floor apartment. She remodeled the first floor as a restaurant and lives upstairs. Her staff here are the only ones we ever see. All very mysterious. There is much speculation of course, but few facts. In the three years the place has been open I've never seen her." Soon the omelet arrives along with a glass of wine and refill on the tea. The omelet proves to be light and fluffy with a just a sprinkling of salty rose colored caviar on top. The onion is the strongest flavor, but not so strong as to overwhelm the crab and fish. The wine proves to be a little on the sweet side yet not unpleasant with the omelet, but it shows better when the warm pastries are presented. Grond attacks his food with gusto suggesting he finds it to his liking as well.</blockquote>
