Sharon merely stared at her as Rithrynn did her odd and unceremonious exit from the room and flight from him. Although some might call it weird and almost suspicious, Sharon knew that such behavior wasn't all that unusual from Rithrynn who by all definitions was a little weird.

[i]"Great, here I'm waging a shadow war against my fallen brother but all around me my only allies are each part of some hidden plot or conspiracy."[/i] Sharon muttered under his breath while throwing his hand up in the air.
Ironically, the only allies who had been with him the entire time and held no secrets was no one else but Serphia's own warband. But that didn't matter all that much, considering the fact that the vast majority of them were either too inebriated to ever understand the concept of a plan, or too wasted after their legendarily heavy partying to even walk.

[i]"What's next? Sherpa's now got secret agents within my own house plotting to kill me?!"[/i]

"I found him; my servants found him, they are all part of my household and all the same." Rosamery answered in a slightly irritated tone, apparently not too happy with Kathlin's sharp questions.

"It was Eddick Murphy who found my husband. This is the man you would like to speak to."

Rosamery motioned towards the servant who had been escorting Ragnar and Kathlin earlier, and who was standing right next to them at the moment. Returning from his formal bowing position, Eddick looked towards Kathlin and Ragnar.

"My name is Eddick Murphy. It was I who made the gruesome discovery of Master Alfidious abrupt demise." He replied in as dry and professional manner as he could, his pristine face unmoving.
"I have to greet our new arrivals. But if you will but accompany me down to them, I can answer any questions that you might have on our way down. It would also give our dear lady time to mourn the loss of her husband, which she sorely needs."

Eddick explained as the servant motioned towards the exit of the green observatory. The mansion was no small in size nor stature, and the journey to the first floor could take some time.

"What? Who goes the - oh by the light!" Miss Collins immediately reacted as the door to her kitchen went up. The pudgy woman turned around, pausing in the middle of hacking the head off a dead bird with a giant meatcleaver when she first saw Rithrynn, then the big nightsaber following her.

"By all the king's follies, how many times must I tell you that there are [b]NO[/b] animals allowed on the kitchen!" Miss Collins exclaimed when she spotted Nisha who was accompanying Rithrynn, slamming the meatclaver down into the wooden table where it buried itself into the thick planks.

Walking up towards Rithrynn and Nisha, she folded her arms as she gave Rithrynn an angry look.

"It's strictly forbidden. Do you want your food spoiled or half eaten by the time of serving or what? Then you don't bring cats into my domain!"

Collins turned to look at Nisha. But as her eyes met with that of the nightsaber, her angry features suddenly abated as her face turned into a lovable smile. Grabbing the sides of the nightsaber's head, Collins began to playfully ruffle the saber's head around.

"Ohhh aren't you such a big, lovable little girl?!" Collins switched to a lovable baby voice as she addressed the big war cat.
"You look malnourished, sweets! Haven't those big elves fed you anything? Don't worry, my little tuffy, mamma Collins has a special treat or two waiting just for a nice cat such as yourself!"
