Watching as the bedding ceremony began, Steffen yawned, before turning back to Lord Baldwin, who was watching Lady Sara. "A fine specimen no?" Steffen murmured. "Let us hope she is as fecund as she is comely. I will await you in the map room my lord." The worm turns and leaves the celebrations.

Taking a bite of his honeycake, Baldwin grimaces at the sweetness. Baldwin waves over another servant and places the cake back on a tray. Watching the bedding with a slight look of disgust. He had never liked this tradition.
While every one was busy with the bedding Ser Piers slips from the room, before returning several minutes later.

Elane watched with her usual easy smile as the women stripped off Allard's smallclothes and bundled the blushing boy into bed with his wife, who had turned completely pink. She could hear some men called out obscene suggestions and jokes from the other door. When the doors closed, several women remained with their ears to the door, tittering. Elane took Lilith by the arm and drew her aside so that there was some distance between them and the others.
"It's stifling in this castle," she said quietly. "I think a walk outside might do us some good."

Lilith nodded and followed Elane, reversing the showy dragon over her dress, becoming a dark figure that could slip into shadows.

When they found Rhodri, they went over to Selwyn and Breyn, and Elane spoke quietly. The Royces listened, and after a moment Elane went and sat with Lady Serena. They chatted for a few minutes, Elane listening attentively, and then Elane excused herself and walked back to her family. They went for a stroll to get out of the hot air in the castle.

OOC: Rhodri is not in Lannisport or Casterly Rock. Rhodri is at Horn Hill. Only Selwyn is here.

Ser Piers does not see Lilith return from the bedding and breifly plays with his beard before walking to his Lord's side.

Elane and the Royces stroll back into the Great Hall, looking much refreshed after their stroll in the cool night air.

Lilith, back in her finery, links her arm through Ser Piers's.
"I saw you make eyes at Lady Annanicola, you evil creature, you'll have her eating off of your plate."

Elane introduced herself to Elena and Benedicta Lannister, and began chatting with them. She called for more wine and another wheel of white cheese, and whipped out her hankerchief to gently pat her face.

"Evil creature, if I were to let that wrinkly toad eat off my plate it would be an act of most saintly charity." Leading Lilith away from his Lord, Piers asked, "How did the bedding go? I can't watch such things I become too embarrassed."

Elane left Lord Baldwin's daughters and walked over to Ser Steffen. "I didn't see you at the bedding, ser. I am hurt. Was my cousin not lovely enough?"

She grinned at Ser Piers's come back. "I understand your delicacy on the subject, steel is such a sensitive material. The children seemed to do well enough, Sara was not happy but she is a willing part of this marriage and Allard was blushing, which gives me hope he will not be too rough with her."
Lilith shuddered slightly. "With any luck it will be a happier place than my bridal bed. I don't recommend drunken old goats to any innocent girl." She smiled, "Allard is much prettier than he was."

Piers laughed deeply, "Allard is a lion on the battlefield, but every time he has fallen in love, he has allowed his paramour to lead him around like a sheep on leash."
His eyes looked up into the air and seemed to be pondering deep thoughts, "I am sorry your bed brought you such displeasure, but I can not imagine a place I would be happier. But to each his own."
