It was a beautiful autumn afternoon, which predicted good weather for the festival to start just the following day. The city was already bursting with activity, and not all vendors and participants had yet arrived or come out of their hiding holes. He was looking forward to seeing all of the nobles out and about, surely most of which would be able to spare time to participate. Why not, after all, when you were already in the capital to enjoy it all? Most of them vyed for attention, for position and influence, to make the right friends and so forth.
Michel didn't think his House was the exception to the rule, though he thought his goal in meeting individuals was more pure of intent; he genuinely wished to conduct unbiased business with them, at a gain of course, but also for the betterment of their shared realm.
For now, he was heading into the city to find a bite to eat. He was travelling with a guardsman he felt he could speak easily to in the manner of companionship, better so than to eat alone. He had a business meeting in the afternoon hours but it was distant enough that he was in no rush. It was per his chance that he recognized a figure just across the stone street. It wasn't uncommon in the least for Ladies or other Lords to be wandering about, going from one place to another within the city, and Michel had met many enough to recognize at least one person a day. This time, however, it was Lady Elisabeta Montefiore.
Crossing the road to approach her, his guardsman fell quiet as he noticed his employer was moving with purpose. "Lady Elisabeta, good afternoon. What a pleasure to see you again."
