(OOC: Thankees, very nice writing, Sard. :) )

As the Duke walks slowly back into the council chambers, he pauses as moment to speak into the ear of a servant.

"The evening is growing late, and I do not expect to hear from Toren Lake until morning." Diomedes says tiredly, "I'm sure than we will have our fill of war shortly, in the meantime, please allow me to submit a form of entertainment to you, my most honored guests."

A few moments later, a troup of scantily-clad young women walk in and begin dancing.

Teasing the lords with seductive poses and suggestive winks, the troup slowly dances closer and closer, until the Emperor leans over to the Duke and whispers, "Who is the young one there? With the mask?"

A puzzled look comes over the Duke's face as he anylizes the young, lithe dancer, "I am not sure...Allow me."

Clapping his hand, the Duke orders the masked dancer brought forward. His look of mild interest and simple curiousity changes to shock and anger as the girl's mask is pulled down.

"Katya!" he yells, rising to his feet and ordering immediate attention.

The girl and the Duke leave the room, one backing away slowly, trying to explain, with the other yelling and raging, threatening to beat her "Until you cannot be beat anymore".

As the duo leaves the room, one of the head servants claps his hands, and the dance is began anew.

Beckoning over the servant, Franz looks to the young man and asks, "What was that all about?"

The servant, with a grin that spoke of wisdom beyond his years, says, "Why Katya, of course, the Duke's daughter, rightful heir to the duchy."
