A blond young lady walked out of her room and approached a dinning room. The entire castle was lit up with torches and fire burned in fireplaces, keeping the entire castle warm. The maids bowed as she entered and served her food when she sat.
Half way into her meal, a man entered. He did not bow as he took a seat beside her; this was the same for the woman behind him. The woman was much older than her, but she shared a lot of facial features with the younger lady.
None of them talked as they ate. The air was neither stiff nor uncomfortable, as though it was very normal that they sat in silence. A man walked in and saluted.
"My lady." he greeted, before nodding to the other two beside her. She looked up at him and frowned.
"What is it?"
"Another of them have entered. They are staying at Kurt inn." the man said and she nodded.
"The same we were expecting?" she asked him.
