[ There must have been another feast. Word of it has traveled to her ears as well as talk for a hunt. Both are events that draw some concern, but don't affect her goals, therefore they are better ignored. What she could do is make an attempt to reach out to shardholders, old and new, and possibly make a bit of coin in doing so. That's why when she greets everyone, it's with a pleasantly polite smile and the decor of the Castle Mair behind her. ]

What a busy month. Are they all like that? [ She waves a hand as she speaks as if to brush off the topic. ] It may have gone unnoticed, but as the Master of Archer it's only proper to inform you that he took his leave earlier last month of this world. If he had any debts, you may approach me with proof of this and I will conclude his business.

Speaking of paying off debts, my workshop is ready to take costumers. My specialty is conversion magic as well as command over all five of the elements. [ Her expression is rehearsed and composed, much like a teacher addressing a class full of idiots. ] In short, I can do a number of things many others don't advertise they can do. It seems pointless to keep my status as a magus here a secret when the world is surrounded by magic. Though it would be nice to learn something useful like shooting a bow...

[ She mutters that last part. ]

Anyway, speak with me about what you want and I'll arrange to help you if I can. We can sort out payment, favors, and IOU's later, especially if you're new to this world. I'm flexible.

So you have experience with magi?

[ Man there's just something suspicious about someone poking around like this even when she's given a more open invitation for conversation. ]

[hiddeninfidelity]

Just a little as of late. It has not been an all together unpleasant experience, but also is not something I'd have chosen for myself.

[Subtlety isn't exactly Mordred's strong suit. Just ask her father.]

[gandere]

There's plenty of magic and those who can wield it here so I suppose your experience will only increase more. Just be careful--there's a number of folks here who act as if they can do a lot more than they really can.

[hiddeninfidelity]

I shall. All professions have their fakes and charlatans, so I can really only sharpen my eyes and ears when learning to discern truth from mere lies and boasts.

[gandere]

[ Ha, she seems a lot smarter than some of the others. ]

That's great to hear. Seems I can finally tuck away my mentor role and take on a more casual tone with you, um, I didn't catch your name...

[hiddeninfidelity]

[There was a long silence before Mordred responded. Weighing her options, it seemed that not giving a name would be far more suspicious then simply giving her title. Both were bad options, but better to appear a servant then a liar.]

I've been going by the title of Saber for some time now. So I do not mind if you call me that as well. I would also like to apologize for not bringing up the issue sooner.

[gandere]

Oh geez, another one? [ Rin might have meant to think that rather than say it, but the surprise is still enough to catch her off-guard. ]

It's a good thing you contacted me, Saber. Once you figure out how to make it so we can have a private conversation, I'd like to discuss something further with you.

[ … she still doesn't know despite it being magical. ]

[hiddeninfidelity]

Very well, once I have better learned to use this device I shall contact you again.

Is there anything else I need know before we part ways?
