Jessica looked at Amber tilting her head some as she heard her to look watch Gavin. She couldn't help but laugh a bit "M'lady? Gavin is Joakim's personal steward, and acting head steward" she added looking at her as she smiled "He is pleasant, cheerful, and very dedicated to his work. Personally I'm somewhat up set tonight is his last night as acting head, he as been good to us, able to balance personal and professional. Evan the cooks like him, and that is saying something." She smiled bowing her head "He is thoughtful about his actions, Take me for example. I was assigned to you because I'm more observant then most and since some people may be targeting you he wanted some one who notices subtle things to better keep you safe." Jessica wasn't lying in the least seeing as this is what she was told and had no real reason to question it. "So anything else you need M'lady"
Walking through the halls it was time for Gavin to return to the main hall and resume his duties of directing his busy little bees as swarmed around the Castle. Before he had even reached it though a man walked up to him, leaning in he whispered to him as Gavin nodded and kept walking. More guest it seems he thought making his way to the main hall. He knew of these mercenary companies, and he loathed them. They were not to be trusted, they didn't care what the job was, they would do it. Even Telth had some ethics, as many as a paid killer can have, but still he had a code to live by. These men didn't care as long as they got paid. Returning to the hall Gavin saw some new arrivals. He didn't know the man as he asked a servant who had been there longer, Jovan apparently. He had never met the man but knew of him as he smiled and nodded. It seemed he was already being taken care of, and since Gavin had no need to watch the man he left it be.
His young lord Joakim came into the hall with the mercenary leader. Watching he moved back and out of site. The ladykiller, was a man he personally didn't like and there was history between them as he would prefer not to be made by a man such as that. Staying out of site from all eyes he closed his own. He didn't trust them, and at this time Gavin would not be needed. Opening his eyes he had returned to Telth, He looked over as Jessica walked up "Scary..." she said pausing as she looked at Telth. She was a chilled a bit as she had never seen that look "Run and hide little girl" he said to her as she nodded moving into the kitchens freaked out a bit. Though It seemed that Telth was right, things started to get heated up as he walked out of the shadows once he saw metal clinking together as sword met sword.
Coming out he saw Joakim chasing after Ladykiller, but something more pressing took his attention. The hillsman was charging at Amber, soon a throwing dagger was flying the air heading for the man. Telth didn't even think, it was simple reaction. Years of training making such actions second nature to him. That dagger was of course on the money, and would plunge into his neck, if he noticed it however he would have to back of and since he was charging the way he was it would make him stumble some. Though Telth didn't have time to see the outcome, that was all the help he could provide with out blowing his cover as he took off running after his young lord.
Telth ran through the halls as he saw the over turned tables, easily moving past such he was faster then most and was soon he saw Joakim who had been stumbled by one of the falling tables. "Excuse me young lord" he said as he quickly flew past him. Despite his speed he often moved silently and he was soon approaching the blonde man, some one that he couldn't exactly let live. Telth threw out the second throwing knife of his at the back of that man. Telth wasn't one to announce him self as he attacked, quickly drawing those twin daggers he flipped the one in his left hand to hold it backwards lashing out. The knife wouldn't kill him, he had to aim between any armor he might of had on so it would stagger him though. Using that he slid down using his left blade to slice the back of his knee.
