The Lord Regent and his Lady enter the hall, and both go around and greet guests great and small, the lords of the land and the two very young men huddling in the corner. "Lord Randal, I was very sorry to hear about the death of your lovely wife. A great loss both to you and your people," said Lilith when she finally was able to speak to Randal. Randal nods, "Thank you for your thoughts, I am struggling, but I shall get through this."

Tallahar who was still standing next to Randal looks to Lilith, "I am so pleased you could make it Lilith. Haley will be thrilled to have you here."

Lilith patted Roland on the shoulder. "Let me know if there is anything we can do to help."
When Lord Tallaher greeted her, she turned her attention to him. "Tall!" said Lilith, "So nice to see you under happy circumstances. Where is Haley now?"

"She is resting at the Pavilion. Yes I am also glad to see you under these better things and I glad that the Gods knew the truth about what I done. I must ask though have you forgiven me?" Tallahar looks at Lilith hoping for the answer he wishes.

Lillith laughed. "I'm so glad that you managed to survive the gauntlet of troubles you have faced that I'll forgive you just about anything." Then she turned serious, "But your life has been granted by the gods and you need to live in ways that honor the Seven. You are a man of huge talent, you need to use it well."

Francis steals a moment of Lady Lilith's time.
"Lady Lilith, we've not had a chance to speak, but on behalf of the Far Reach, I wanted to apologize for your previous treatment at Sun House. And if you can find the time, we would love to have you back with an opportunity to show our hospitality."

Lilith grabs a large glass of wine and nods to Lord Francis to continue.

"We aren't quite there as yet. I have some improvements and rebuilding plans to implement, but if you would be willing to consider it, when Sun House is ready, I'd like to invite you to revisit as my distinguished guest, with perhaps a detour into Oldtown to see Lord Justin."

"I would like to see Lord Justin," said Lilith. "I believe he is about the age of my younger daughter. Would be interesting to them interact with each other. And I will admit that I am curious about how the area around Sun House are doing. Have people recovered yet from the meteorite hit?"
She paused and then continued, "Will my niece Anne be there? It would be lovely to see her in her new life."

"Not as quickly as I'd have hoped. Many people have chosen to uproot and live elsewhere rather than stay in the aftermath of so much horror. We settled hundreds of families on my own lands, and elsewhere in the Reach as well. To see the area grow again will require an increased in commerce, which has been lacking because of the conflict. Thankfully that its behind us now, and We can see to making the area bloom again."

"Do you know Ser Arguel Flowers in King's Landing? He is the head of the Merchant's Guild there and I know he has been helpful in assisting other areas restablish trade."

"I am familiar with the name but not the man. I will certainly seek him out with your recommendation. I had some rather ambitious plans for a road network as well. With the separation from Highgarden, it seems reasonable that we direct some of the land traffic further east through Uplands, Stoatheart and Sun House, and to better connect them to Oldtown as well, since that is where their attention needs to be focused now." Francis said with a polite smile.

"Given how the landscape has changed both physically and politically, I think new road works would be an excellent idea. They would also provide some employment for displaced farmers and other workers, always useful."

"Employed men are peaceful men." Francis agreed. "Perhaps when we finish you can travel down it on your visit. I would rather like that."

Then she turned serious, "But your life has been granted by the gods and you need to live in ways that honor the Seven. You are a man of huge talent, you need to use it well." "I have decided my life is more about my family then ever. As you know I love them so much but now I am planning on simpling caring for them I care no more for titles are anything I just want to live to see my children grow." Through out this Tallahar voice is gravely serious. Then a boyish grin comes across his face, "And maybe add a few more children."
