(I have achieved maidens, now I shall journey with my wife in a thousand year Reic-order of the moon and stars of chill night)

???: I am from House Eisenhorn, it is my pleasure to assist you any horderves.

A maid with black hair and brown eyes offers you a plate with horderves served on it

(Y/n): ah, what are these?

???: pastries, good sir.

You grab one pulling your scarf forward to bite it in one, noticing her slightly tippy toeing to catch a glimpse of your face before giving up as you fix your scarf back leaving before you can grab another

???: I am from House Dorn, a glass of wine my Lord...

Another maid with white hair and blue eyes offers you a plate with glasses of wine

(Y/n): thank you, but I am not a Lord yet.

You cautiously grab one pulling your scarf to sniff it, a few other maids slightly turn their gaze to you when you find it poison free before drinking more giving her smile as she leaves

More and more maids came over to offer you some sort of drink or horderves giving you their House names there was nothing wrong with it, but typically maids do not give their House names

It is something you pick on that they only do with you and not the other guest, that's when a grumbling Noble talking about his daughter trying to work as a maid within the palace does it click in your head

As Huntsman you are a dishonored Noble trying to reinstate your noble line it is no surprise that these Noble ladies would try to win your attention whether because their fathers wanted them to or because they wish to at least catch some of the bigger fish in the pond before another does

???: you seem to catch a lot of the ladies attention, Sir Huntsman.

You turn to the voice finding Gazef Stronoff even at such a prestigious event the man still continues to wear his armor, then you realize that your technically wearing yours too

(Y/n): Sir Stronoff, we meet again.

Gazef: I wish to congratulate on your rise to noble status.

(Y/n): thank you.

Gazef: an adventurer becoming a noble, sounds like a fairy tale.

(Y/n): it sure does, but I am more adventurer than noble as I'll still be conducting in my current profession...I find it more comfortable.

Gazef: brave to face beast, but not politics ha!

He laughs nodding your head to confirm his assumption when he catches the eye of a noble sneering at him before turning away

Gazef: I am jealous Sir Huntman.

(Y/n): why is that?

Gazef: you are of noble blood these are your people, yet you have the heart of a warrior protecting the many who cannot.

(Y/n): ...that is true yet I am still no different from these nobles I desire wealth and power, so while I may save people...in the end it means nothing to me.

Gazef: hm, that is understandable not every man is pure at heart, and if such a man did I would punch them in the face.

(Y/n): I misjudged you Sir Stronoff, I believe you to of pure heart?

Gazef: hah, me? no, even I am not foolish to believe in such things, serving the King and honing my skills are the only desires I hold.

The music finally picks up as Nobles picked their partners to dance even then only a few joined in with the music
