Tiberius Lucius Magnus, Male Praetor Warmage

Raising his eyebrows at the head chef’s accent, Tiberius asks, “When did the dinner take place? And I noticed you didn’t mention Lady Lynestra... wasn’t she present?”

"Yes, she was there. But she's always around, so it wasn't as nerve-wracking as the others. Who knows what foreign royalty will think about food."

"Zey are Rowaini, Chantalle, so of course zey lahk ahr food, yes?"

"Yes, chef Pierre, but we didn't know for sure ahead of time. You were nervous too. Anyway, the dinner was about three hours and it started just about a half-hour or so after the reception."

"Yes, zee true gourmet eat dinair in zee early evuhning, not at all lahk zee westairn Rowaini who wait unteel almost meednaht to eat. Eez barbareec, no? Inconceevabluh."

"Helena, she arived late? Or left early? Or both?" Vasha asks.

Vasha attempst to line up her timeline with Helena with the one the servant comes up with.

"She arrived late. She may have also left early, I don't know."

“So was the Tyndaria family dinner two or three hours long, perhaps even somewhere in between, as I’ve heard both times mentioned so far and accuracy is essential? Either way it ended before the batchelor party was due to start, unless I have my times mixed up,” Tiberius remarks.

 

[Rystil Arden]

"It depends. Two if you only count the time during which the courses of the meal were being served. Threeish if you count the extra time mingling before and after."

OOC: I still haven't gotten a difinitive answer about how long Vasha was with Helena, which was the part about reconciling the timeline

“Okay, thank you, that gives us a clearer picture of events. Did you serve anyone else during the period between the reception ending and the bachelor party starting?”

"I was just assigned to that dinner," Chantalle says.

"Zair vaz a raycepsheeun planned for zee poleeteecal guests veeth Lord Atreoos, baht laytair," Pierre adds.
