"Yes, they should be here. Aurane did agree to it." He was about to step and grab an orange and stopped,"Lord Tully? You invited Lord Tully?" Evan pressed his hand against his brow.
"As if Aurane wasn't paranoid enough..."He sighed,"It was hard enough to convince him to come here. What do think is going to heppen when they are in the same dining room?" Evan then paused and took a thought.
"Fine, we can work this to our advantage. I will send another raven to them before they leave the capital telling them something creative. Keep preparing for Lord Tully." He kissed her cheek lightly and darted off to get the message together.

She wondered why they would care who she invited to see Sunspear. She shrugged as her brother ran off.

He smiled as he returned to his siste,"The message was sent. I will try to bring you to speed before Lord Tully arrives."
He was hoping they did have time, with the way the house was almost finished he assumed Lord Tully maybe arriving that day or that evening.

By the time he returned Lyssandra was eating while standing at a table speaking with a roguish looking fellow dressed in moderately fashionable attire that seemed to be well travelled in. She looked at her brother, who seemed proud of himself for sending the letter. "Should I come to your solar for the discussion?"

Evan stoped short as he looked at the man she was talking to, his eyebrow raised, then he answered her,"Yes... My solar would be very good idea.

Lyssandra set her food down and followed her brother to his room.

Come midnight, Lord Tully makes his way to the Tower of the Sun, he carries the box that he offered before with him and sets it down on a table, he waits for Lyssandra to arrive so they can begin talking.

Lyssandra arrives in the hall dressed with slightly heavier clothing than in the daytime. Several servant follow her carrying a tray with cups and a canter of Dornish wine. "Were you able to sleep for a little bit?"

"A little, I will admit I was too much entralled in the books that was in my room." He smiles. "It has been a long time since I have seen a title that I have not read before." He places the box before her. "And since this seems like an appropriate time, this is for you."

"Ah the gift," she said with some interest. "What did you bring to me hm?" Her gloved hands opened the box slowly. "Are they books from the Riverlands?" She wanted to guess as she opened the box up to reveal its contents.

He smiled, as her hand finished opening the box, she sees a finely crafted Crevasse set, each side its efferent wood, the light Goldenwood and the left Sentinel Wood on a finely finished wooden top. Harold also places the books she saw before next to the box. "These are books from the Riverlands, I know you wanted to hear about wars and travels and this is all I could find for you. I hope you find then as enlightening as I do."

Lyssandra looked up at Tully, the gift was a nice touch but as she thought about it she knew she could not show him how it made her truly happy. "Thank you Lord Tully, it was very welcome." She picked up one of the books and brought it to her nose to sniff, something peculiar to most other people but she liked the smell of old parchment. "I will put them at the top of my list to read."
The servants poured some wine for them and provided some light dried fruits for their refreshment. She felt awkward as she looked over the gifts, the book held in one arm. Her hand reached out for some wine and she looked at Tully. "Practical gifts are the best. I will put the board to use."

He chuckles. "I figured you would like it, I knew how much you played as a child. The books just happened to be in my Manse, I knew you wished to learn about them when we first met." He takes the wine glass offered to him, if Lord Tully sensed or cared about her awkwardness, he didn't show it. "I am glad you think so, so" he leaned forward. "This plan of yours, why do you need my wood?" He looked to her with interest.

Lyssandra was relieved he turned the topic to business, "Yes I need your hardest wood. I am aware that the Riverlands is renowned for it. I was also interested in the devices you showed me. I would like to build some for the walls. Secondly, I want new doors built, walls reinforces and structures in the city to also be reinforced. I need it for spears and arrows, torches and so on. There are many other projects in my mind I am not sure on the feasibility of them yet."

He tilts his head. "Are you expecting War, Princess?" He takes out a book and opens it to a blank page.

Hope you all are well and happy.
