AGELESS CAMPAIGN, Episode II, Part VI.

Callum gestures across the room to the crowds who have now gathered around his friend. "My friend the Prince, correction, Grand Duke, seems to have admirers. Actually, I think the Russian's have something there, the title 'Prince' sounds far more dainty, whereas 'Grand Duke' is very masculine."

"It's a good thing you're only going to be a Sir, then. Prince is an impressive enough title for most people," she laughed. "People will faun all over a Prince. Perhaps the advantage is that people keep their fauning a little more dignified with a Grand Duke."

"Well, I am very glad that we came here. The performance was excellent. But there is no reason for us to stay around. That photograph in the papers will be sufficient for my task. Do you want to go somewhere for a bite to eat or would you rather just head back to the castle?"

"We didn't eat before we left, so it's been since lunch since I ate, and I have no idea if you've had anything since breakfast. I'd say some food is in order."

Dinner it is then. They are among the first to depart the elaborate building and start to make their way down the long driveway to the rows of waiting carriages. Callum asks, "So, what do you fell like this evening? We're dressed for anywhere in the city, fancy or otherwise."

"If you think you've satisfied the need to be seen, why don't we go somewhere more casual? My favorite part of a city is almost always just immersing myself in its every day places.

But if you have another idea I'm willing to hear it. There is something to be said for hitting the highlights, too."

He replies, "I know of a place that might fit the bill for that. It's in the neighborhood where we dropped Maracita off. How is your Spanish? The do speak fluent French there, but Spanish is the preferred language of the establishment."

"My Spanish is pretty poor. Its pretty commonly spoken back home, so I've picked up some, but it's rudimentary at best.

Which should in no way put us off," she smiled.

"Very good, that's the spirit. And I hope that you enjoy Spanish food. And by that I don't mean the food from Central America and South America that has been influenced by Spain, I mean the food served in the finest restaurants in Barcelona and Madrid."

"I haven't the faintest idea, but I'm game. I've rarely met a plate of food I didn't like," she said, leading him away from the theater and toward the carriage.

They are about three-quarters of the way back to the waiting line of parked carriages when a man comes up beside Callum and says softly in French, but loud enough for both to hear: "Mr. Stuart, my employers would like to speak to you and the young lady. Please do not do anything other than accompany me. They do not wish either of you any harm. However, if you do not come with me there are a quartet of armed men who are following that will bring you both considerable harm."


OOC: Face it, this one of my 'pulp' style modules. You were able to enjoy a nice concert and learn alot of historical facts about a great musician. Did you really expect that to only be followed bya nice dinner? Nothing happened the night before, two nights in a row wouldn't have been my style.
