Part 5: A Pleasant Dream
(Roleplay from Irdys Galeheart)
Irdys smiled with satisfaction seeing the blade in action, and perhaps even more at the weaponmasters words. The duke would hear of the sword, and there was still the very clear notion that would be a good thing. And it seemed there'd be no problem here at the palace either. No one had even botheredwith origins and places of birth, fortunately.
Irdys grinned as she swiftly gathered the blade back in her possession, sliding it back underneath the cloak that was still wrapped around herself shrouding most of her. Giving a gracious bow she said swiftly;
"My thanks, for the time and the offer of lodgings. I'll forego the lodgings I've had so far as they're sure not to compare to here Sir. I'll be in the stables Sir, ready of coruse for if his Grace might wish to receive me at some point or other Sir."
Irdys chuckled softly to herself as she heard one of the guards mutter about a choice of stables over the guard house, and that their lodgings weren't that bad. She really couldn't explain the base of that decision to them...
No matter of that though, the rush of excitement as she was escorted back up to the stables was still there. In the palace, a weaponmasters had had his look at the blade and judged it worthy enough. Perhaps even a chance to meet a real noble come the morrow. More likely merely one of his stewards again she feared, still, it would be a good enough thing even so.
As she entered the stables Irdys quickly found a corner to make herself comfortable, trying her best to sleep with all that awaited. Not the most easy of tasks, fighting monsters was one thing. But meeting a duke... The most important nobles she'd ever spoken to had been simple hedge knights, a real duke...
Eventually even with those thoughts swirling round sleep caught up on her. Dream of blades, honourable combat they'd perform, and a duke actually appreciating a commoner perhaps.
