As customary, Erwyn leaps up the tower steps two at a time to the mirror that connects her with the Dojo where Amanda and Xenograg can be found most of the time. Though she favored her father in many respects, instead of white blond hair, hers was more golden with blue eyes that twinkled with mischief or excitement. However she was developing more of her mother's traits, tall, slender with long tapering hands that held tightly a missive for Xenograg.

Once at the top of the landing, she pauses for a moment to look at amazement at the tower. The place had been tidied, dusted and swept. All items had been placed back in the cabinet and the counters clear of debris. "Someone has been up here." She mutters to herself. She couldn't help but feel a little violated. She knew her mother had to have someone sent up here to clean, she a few times complained about the state of the tower. Erwyn sighs to herself and places the talisman that gave her access to the Dojo. Without she hesitation steps through the mirror.

As always there was a servant there doing some choir or another, she looks up and smiles with pleasure then does a courtesy.

"Princess Erwyn!"

"Please, just Erwyn." She says with a smile. "I have a message for Master Xenograg, is he here?"

"That he is, he is with Amanda training new students. This way."

Erwyn follows, into the all familiar training room. Amanda, her small figure contrasts against the larger students as she put them through the paces. Xenograg, with his short spear he uses for a cane, sits to the side watching. Erwyn waits for a break in the training so not to break concentration. Amanda senses someone watching her; she turns to see Erwyn and after a few more commands, calls for an end to the training session for the morning.

“Erwyn!" Amanda cries happily. In spite of the fact Erwyn now towered over the petite frame of her closest friend, they hug like sisters. "What brings you here" More tea for father?"

"No, a missive from my mother." Erwyn answers glancing at Xenograg who was now watching the two of them.

Together they walk to Xenograg and with a flourish, presents the missive to Xenograg. Upon opening, on a creamy white parchment with the seal of Eldicor, a single gold tree with a star atop, it reads:

"My old friend and adviser, you and your lovely family are invited to a ball in celebration of the cleansing of the Dark Forest and the return of Lady GreyMantle. The ball will be November 22, starting at 8 pm. Also bring Nartelemna with you, it is required of you.

With fondness;

Teleperien

Erwyn is now talking with Amanda, her eye on Xenograg. Once he finishes the invitation she says;

"Shall I bring her an answer or did you wish to write an answer??

"Shall I bring her an answer", Erwyn asks, "or did you wish to write an answer?" Xenograg's eyes linger a moment over Teleperien's choice of complimentary close.

"Verbal is sufficient, I think," Xenograg replies. "We shall be honored to attend." He then pauses a moment.

"All of us will attend, which includes Grimblade. Her Majesty's dispensation regarding his arms will need to be renewed. Let me know if that becomes an issue."

Erwyn pauses for a moment and studies Xenograg with uncharacteristic seriousness. She finally speaks with earnestness.

?I believe Mother would have brought the invitation herself, but I sense she feels she is not welcome here. I hope she is wrong. However, I will bring her the answer you gave."

Without waiting for a reply, Erwyn gives Amanda a hug and turns to return to Eldicor with Xenograg's answer.
