[She looks a bit rushed, but gentle nonetheless, pleased to address the shardbarers. Hands folded gently in front of her, Lucrezia speaks.]

As some may know, I've lived in Treun for a time, even being adopted into the Fortuna family. Many have spoken about the concerns of anti-shardbearer sentiments, and I, too, have had them on my mind for some time. A dear girl has come to me here in this city. With our two minds we have come to a conclusion, to give back to the community to show our goodwill.

[She seems all too eager for it, having talked to some about the subject.]

At the end of the month, we are to have a fair in this great city where any shardbarer can come to offer his wares or services. It will take place in the market.

I hope to see many there.

[With a bow of her head, she shuts the locket.]

Well -- then you'd better start researching deep-fried food items. The wackier, the better.

[pontificus]

I could at the very least tell the chefs to arrange such an item. [She smiles back, even if she's not entirely sure what one could actually deep fry. But if the girl insists, it must be common enough in her world.]

[herotypical]

Your fair's gonna have chefs?

[pontificus]

Vendors, but I have chefs.

[herotypical]

What. Like -- private chefs? All to your lonesome?

[pontificus]

Oh, no. I live in a large manor. It isn't mine though-- just my family's. My adopted family. [Though she does have Cesare here now, she must distinguish.]
