A pretty room for the charming young Aryanna Dayne.

A servant with big eyes opens the door and calls for Aryanna, who was sitting in front of a mirror adjusting her hair. "Oh brother! It's good to see you." She turned on the chair and went to hug him.

Rhaegar favors a smile and opens his arms. "Sister, it's been too long," he says, laughing.

She hops up and kisses both his cheeks. "It has. But I understand that Lord's business keeps you busy. And I'm almost always busy too, attending the queen." Arya's maid frowns and begins combing the young lady's hair anew. "It's good that you have come."

"I would not forget to visit you," he assured. "I missed you at the Feast," he noted. "I saw you for a moment, but you were nowhere to be found the next."

"I went out on an adventure. And came back later. IT was certainly fun to dress up in costume. I will ever look forward to more masques at court. There were surely many other persons that would take up your time. Especially ladies." She giggled into her hand.

"Now now, Arry. There are countless ladies out there, but I only have two sisters," he laughed, mussing her new combed hair.

The servant huffed, and withdrew to tend to Aryanna's clothing for the day. She grinned at the attention given unto her. "It has been some time since I have seen you or Arys...and well, Arys was just a small boy when I last laid eyes on him. I almost forget what it's like to have a brother." She looked over to see what her maid was doing and was happy to see that her clothes were ready. The maid took up the garments and lifted them up onto the tallish screen so that Arya could start changing out from her small clothes.

He smirked at the servant's behavior and gave his sister a nudge toward the screen."I visited Arys recently. He's a man grown now; a Lord in every right," Rhaegar replied, taking a seat. He drew a grape from the bowl on the table. "Last I saw you, you were still hanging on every word of the stories of old. Now you're nearly a woman grown," he laughed.

She went behind the screen and her voice floated from behind it. "Oh I still like stories and song, not as much as I used to though. It is charming to hear of a man write or sing of his feelings for a woman." The maid went behind the screen to help Arya get into some of the more complex clothes. "Perhaps the court will come to Summerhall next, and I will be able to spend some time at your home. It would be close enough for the rest of our kin to travel to." "Inhale my lady." Said the maid as she began tightening up Arya's bodice. "It was much simpler getting dressed when I was still a girl."

"My people won't be happy to give up such copious amounts of stock to feed the court," he smiled. "But I would be happy to see you more often then as it is," he noted.
"Can it be so different?" he asked, on the subject of getting dressed.

"The people would be happy to see the King and Queen and knights. But I suppose not all lands could support us. Push them up a little bit Emma. Yes, dressing is much different and more time consuming." There was some shuffling. "Yes, and those ones will do." After 10 minutes Aryanna emerged more dressed than before. Her hair was tied up in a bun and she smiled. "Sorry to keep you waiting, will you be doing later?"

"Likely a warm bath," he mused. "Slipping up at the end yesterday rewarded me some aches." He bit down on another grape and stood. He regarded her for a long moment. "You should not wear your hair so tightly. It makes you look so serious; intimidating for those helpless boys, I'm sure," he laughed, standing.

"'Tis only temporary since you had to go and fuss my hair." She chuckled and her maid followed closely behind her, "But I will take your advice and have it straightened out again. I'd not want to scare anyone away." She looked at him with sympathy, "Oh well I hope you weren't hurt too bad? Perhaps we can arrange for dinner with father at another time." She let down her hair, and her maid sighed again, resigning to go get some combs.

"Do not think me weak," Rhaegar said slyly. "A bath will scarcely take any time." He showed a toothy smile when she let down her hair. "I can barely recognize you, Arry. Though you're as much trouble to the maids as I remember."
