Saeryn welcomed the young man to the Hall, graciously taking from him cloak and name.

"You seek for Eodwine, young lord?" she smiled prettily and the young man wondered who she was and how she had come to be there, for she seemed unescorted and looked little like the master of the hall. "A bite to eat? I fear that it may not be up to the usual standards... as you can see, we are renovating... however it will be nourishing and fresh, if not exquisite. Or perhaps a drink? A kettle is on or cold water could be brought."

Small details seen too, Saeryn led the tired looking lad to Eodwine who had viewed the exchange with a contemplative look. "Gárwine, you stand before Eodwine of the Gap. I will bring you water and see to your mount. She will be comfortable in the stables as matters are dealt with here."

Bowing her head slightly, Saeryn swept away. She pulled on boots before striding to the kitchen. She drew a pitcher of water and gathered some breakfast items, settling them neatly onto a tray. Balancing it carefully, she returned to the Hall and set it upon a table nearby to where Eodwine now spoke with Gárwine. Unobtrusively, she slipped from the building and retrieved the lad's horse. A short time later, she had finished feeding and watering the beast and slid again into the room. Eodwine nodded encouragingly to her as she disappeared through the door toward her room once more.

If the Mead Hall was soon to fill with strangers, she must look presentable. At the very least, she ought to wear shoes.
