Grayther seemed to swell in his clothes when Mr Hearts introduced himself.

"The honour is ours, Mister Hearts, it's been quite some time since I last attended a dance so magnificently hosted. As for my young friend here, I-" Grayther began, his voice clear despite the band and the general hubbub of chatter around them.

"No, I was at fault, Grayther. No need to apologise for me." Liath cut in. Bowing slightly in Mr Hearts's direction, he continued "My apologies, Mr Hearts, I meant no offence, I'm merely not use to such grand surroundings." Standing straight once more, he smiled kindly at the man. "Allow me to introduce myself: I am Liath Azure. It's an honour to consider myself a guest at a dance so renown throughout Vale as yours."

Grayther couldn't help but smile beneath his mask at the way Liath had handled himself.

"Now, if you would excuse me, gentlemen, I require a drink." Liath said, bowing at Mr Hearts once more and giving a slight nod at Grayther, before walking away towards the buffet tables.

"He's a good man, Mr Hearts, only he was never raised surrounded by aristocracy like myself and others who attend this dance tonight." Grayther admitted once Liath had gone. "Before I say anything else, I feel I must apologise too. I may be using your dance to sharpen his skills as a gentleman."
