Morwen raised her eyebrows slightly. This indeed was a surprise. "I thankyou Lord Falador, you're King is indeed most kind and thoughtful....indeed he shows more respect than any of my other allies." she still looked slightly puzzeled though. "I do not wish to be rude, but surely you have some other reason apart from freindship to come here?"

''I'm sorry I did not bring any gifts as assigned by the trade agreement, if that is what you mean. Currently our supplies are going to the war effort. But we shall up hold to the trade as soon as we are able to. Again I am sorry for that.'' Falador replied

"No" Morwen's eyes flashed. "No that is not what i ment" she clicked her fingers and men came carrying a chair for him, another with cooled wines and fruits. "No it is not my Lord, the trade agreement did not specify that when freinds meet the must send gifts. As you are probably aware it is my custom to send girfts to a new allie a short time after our agreement, but nowhere did we agrre that."

Cilmion Aide to the Queen came in though the back of the room and heard her words. The blood rushed from his face as he hurried forewards. "M'lady i am sorry to interrupt but the gifts have been delayed on thier journey. They met with resistance that was put down but...." He quailed at the look on her face. "I shall arrange for more to be sent immediatly Lady." he said before hurrying out

''Please excuse me then perhaps my words were misplaced I only wished to mean that I have brought nothing else with me by myself and my wish to learn of you and your customs more, as an ambassador i thought it best that I came to you to do this. Please I did not mean to cause offence I only wished to explain that I am here as friendship between us. As for calling me a lord please forgive my Queen Morwen but I do not that that title.'' Falador stayed kneeling untill told otherwise

The Queen stared angrily at her Aide untill he left the hall. She would have to replace Cilmion if he carried on in this way. To be halfway though courtasy's when one of her men told here that what should have been done as a matter of course had not? Her attention flickerd back to Falador. "Rise. I am sorry for my Aide. He will be punished of course, please, eat, drink. I know you ment no offense."
(Cil, where have you been for the last few months? Huh huh?)

Falador rose up from kneeling. ''I thank you my lady, you are most kind to me, and it shall be remembered.'' He sat down and ate and drank the wine which was better then any he had tasted.
''Will you not join me my lady? I would feel bad otherwise, it is seen as quite rude for a young man not to invite a beautiful lady to eat with him. At least that was what I was told.'' Falador gave his part chuckle part purr as he bit into one of the fruits choose those that would be easiest for him to eat with a mussle as it was.

She smiled and a young girl bought a rosewood table, laden with the smae fair as his. She raised a goblet to her lips "To freindship, and the alliance." she tok a long druaght. "Be careful, this wine is potent, enough to knock out and elf, (see the Hobbit) only those long used to it may drink withough moderation"

''I think then perhaps I had better be careful how much I drink, or I'll end up complimenting you and attempting to be a smooth talker, till I pass out my lady, and I would hate to slurr my words.'' Falador winked before taking a normal drink of wine. ''To friendship and to us.'' Falador blinked alittle after only a couple sips he was already feeling light headed.

(so sorry my spelling is awful, i'm dyslexic)
She smiled at his compliment. "I think you talk very well in any case." she saw how the wine affected him swiftly but said nothing, only raising her glass to her own lips once more. As one of the royal house she had started drinking it at the age of five...there was nothing worse than a ruler who could be made to lose thier self control....in Rhun at any rate. "How gose the preparations for War?"
(ahhhh i think i may have to go in a minint m'dear)

((as for spelling im dyslexic also so I fully understand and its ok if you have to go my email address is on my profile if you ever need it)) Falador thought for a moment or to. ''Well I am not a man of war however I have been at the battlefield, it would seem that we must push at haste to win victory as the 'realms of light' have desided to get involed in a country that none of them like. You know it confuses me that they would all band against our forces again a known enemy they have. Does that not seem strange to you? What do the realms to light gain from getting involed? I do not know, but Harad should fall before they reach the country. At least I hope so.'' Falador paused for a moment. ''And I thank you for your words, youd be surpirsed how hard it is to speak normally in my current situation but you learn to turn a curse into an advantage...slowly at least anyway.'' He said and drank alittle more, it slipped down his thoat so easily it was like drinking water.

A messenger arrived he had travelled from Dunland to Harad to inform Neurion of the attack on the Fort of Dunland and in turn Neurion had sent him here with a message for Falador. The messenger had know he was here because he had informed those at Dunland where he was travelling. The messenger handed Falador a scroll.
Dear Falador, Time is of the essence and Dunland although not in serious trouble matters could take a turn for the worse. I am aware that you are in Rhun, i would appreciate it if you asked Morwen for a favour. (ill pm you what the favour is as i don't want the enemy knowing.) Send her my greetings and if she cannot i will not hold a grudge.
Neurion King of Dunland

Falador studied the note. ''Hmm, it would seem that I am always under offical capacity. My lady I'm sorry to interupt our lovely meal but perhaps you would care to read this note sent by my lord king?'' Falador handed over the letter to Morwen.

Morwen studied the note and smiled, "I am unable to take part in this war for many reasons, however none of these prevent me from helping a freind out in need....under certain conditions of course" (sorry am waiting for reply about particulars from Neurion)

''But of course'' Falador said sipping some more wine. ''But while you think it over let us continue our meal? I see no reason for this to spoil what is quickly becoming a very good evening do you not think? Also might I add how wonderful you look in the light of the sunset'' Falador gave a small hiccup and sipped some more wine.
