Greater vakolicci haven wrote:Maria was immediately excited at the prospect of a hunt, and she nodded eagerly. "What do you hunt with around here?" she asked. "Guns...bows...dogs? It's all very enjoyable." She held up two fingers and smiled as the glass was filled with mead before continuing, managing not to speak with her mouth full but still devour the food incredibly quickly between sentences.
"My family hunts a lot, but when my dad does it it's for food. One of his obsessions, even though we are the second-richest family in the whole country, is to eat food he's killed himself. Growing up we had some...rather interesting dinners, I won't lie. Did you know, really weirdly, that falcon doesn't taste nice? I know, how weird?"
Kuronami wrote:Hunting eh? She'd never been but her brothers certainly had. "I-I would be interested in going." She did kind of hope bows would be used though she wasn't a great marksman at least she had experience in archery. "Even if we don't find anything, a trip through the snow covered wilderness can be quite soothing, don't you think?"

Camelone wrote:Noticing a slight hesitation in her voice Frederick turned towards Kirie "Yes the Lord's creation is truly breath taking during the winter, seemingly devoid of life lends to it a rather supernatural feel. Riding through my lands is a favorite past time of mine for not only do I get some peace and quiet for the hectic life of royal life but I also get to such beauty that is not matched till tonight." To that last part he leaned back with a smile though he was watching to see how either one would react to the vague compliment that he didn't specify who it was to.

Camelone wrote:"Lady Kirie if you do not feel comfortable riding by yourself you may ride with me on my horse, it is nothing to be worried about. I am glad you can use a bow though it shall make the hunt a little easier all in all." Frederick said his voice warming up a bit to her, at the dinner table he seemed to be loosening up a bit then he was earlier in the day.
"What me a flirt? Never. I am happy that you know how to ride a horse though Duchess Maria it makes sorting out who rides with who without making it an awkward decision for me." Frederick held up three fingers then held up one signaling he wanted watered down wine. "As for the falcon tasting... odd I would expect as much. Now when it comes to the white stag I do not know if it will be even possible to catch a glimpse of it once more, folklore says that it is an emissary of the afterlife so I wouldn't eat it but I will hunt it, such a divine beast would certainly be a great gift to the Church." He was revealing his superstitious side slightly and coughed slightly to recover.
More food was brought out and set in front of Maria and Frederick told Odilo to begin the final preparations for dessert.

Camelone wrote:"Lady Kirie I hope you had a restful night and are ready for today." Frederick said civilly as he turned and greeted Kirie. "The Royal Hunters are currently getting the horses so we will be leaving soon. I take it you will be warm enough correct?"
The door opened behind Frederick to which he didn't pay any mind to revealing a middle aged man wearing the winter uniform of the Royal Hunters with two extra bows and quivers in his hands. He spoke to the king in Camelonean "The horses are ready your majesty."
"Thank you sergeant. We shall depart soon." Bowing his head the Hunter left and closed the door once more. Frederick was examining Kirie critically to see if he could ascertain anything from her mannerism to get a better idea of her personality.

Camelone wrote:"Idurin? Unfortunate. What did he do that warranted his arrest?" Frederick asked from atop of Glad slightly intrigued by it, though he didn't know Idurin all that well so he wasn't truly concerned especially because he didn't know if a true injustice was committed. He also looked Maria up and down. "Are you sure that you will be warm enough wearing only that?" He asked as a Royal Hunter brought over her black palfrey and was holding her bow and quiver.

Camelone wrote:"I am glad that you have chosen to accompany me today. I do believe that whether we find the white stag or not today shall be a truly good day. Now let us not delay any longer, we shall mount up and wait for Duchess Maria outside, I do not believe she should be much longer." Frederick said before he turned sharply and walked out the doors that Cormac was holding who gave Kirie a bright smile.
Outside two Royal Hunters were atop two black palfrey horses as they held the reigns of two other horses, another black palfrey horse and a strong looking white destrier, the Royal horse. Frederick walked up to his horse and gently held the horses head, to which the horse seemed to lean into Frederick a tad bit.
"How's my boy doing today? Are you excited to be out on another ride?" He asked the horse to which sounds like affirmation were produced. With a chuckle Frederick explained in English "This is Glad, he's one of my closest friends and confidants. I've had him since he was born nearly 14 years ago, he was a gift from my father." Grinning Frederick walked to the side of the warhorse and gracefully pulled himself up into the saddle. Giving a hand out to Kirie he bowed his head slightly "Would you join me dear lady?" He asked as he would let her decide whether she would want to sit in front of him or behind him. Behind him would allow both to shot their bows relatively easily but in front meant that Kirie would be much closer to Frederick.
