Sergio laughed, "On the streets of Braavos your land is slowly being devoured by cruel Valyrian Dragons. It is a land of only children of the forest, ice Giants and beautiful enchantresses who fuck trees."

Jeyne smiled slightly. "We are not as uncivilised as that. We are probably not all that different from your people. But tell me something about Braavos, if you will."

Sergio smiled at her as he reflected on the question, "I almost do not know where to begin. It is the greatest city and with out doubt the most dangerous to. You can stand on almost any street in the city and within an hour you will have heard every language from every land. Just the docks for her trade would cover the entirety of Kings Landing. Anything you have ever desired can be found at any time day or night." He raised an eyebrow as if asking if he should go on.

"What about the rivers. I always thought it must be wonderful to sail everywhere. Is it as pleasant as I have thought?" She wondered, eyes shining.

SeIgio's eyes twinkled,"I own thirteen trading vessels. Two are in docked here right now. You must come out with me one day."

She shook her head. "I wish I could, but I doubt the king would allow it. Not without guards, at least. I am not even allowed to go into the city unguarded."

"Well that merely makes it a challenge. And quite frankly a great deal more enjoyable. I love doing what I am forbidden to do." Sergio replied with às confident smirk.

Jeyne smiled. "And how shall you smuggle me out of the castle, then? I am quite noticeable in this house of dragons."

"I could smuggle you from the keep but I think it would be safer to attempt in the city. How many guard you when you go in to King's Landing?" Sergio asked.

"Two, usually. Sometimes more. But two are enough. I am not strong enough to present much of a threat," Jeyne sighed. "They are always big strong men."

"Just two?" Sergio stroked his chin and added, "I would not harm them but merely fool them. Do they follow you every where? Say if you were going to get dresses fitted?"

"They would wait in the shop while I was in the room trying gowns on," she said. "Truly, they would be watching me as long as is possible."

Sergio snorted derisively, "That is hardly security. A simple matter then. Not too difficult."

"Oh. Well, I shall leave it in your hands, hen," she said. She looked at him for a moment then asked "Have you ever been to Dorne?"

"I was in Sunspear once for a short time. It was a beautiful city." Sergio replied. "It has been years though, I was still quite young."

"I see. So you have never been to the mountains? You have never met my father, Lord Yronwood then?" She sighed. "A pity."

"No I am sorry." Sergio replied, and said, "I have heard of him I believe. Yronwood is a strong house from my recollections."

"Yes. They ruled much of Dorne before the Rhoynar came and allied with the Martells. Poor Father, he hopes one day to wield such power as his ancestors did, but I fear he never will."
She leaned close, pressed a hand to his arm. "Could I persuade you to visit Dorne, do you think?"

Sergio looked her in the eye and smiled, "I do believe you could convince me to dance on the head of a pin. So I only ask you be gentle with your great powers of persuasion."

"I am always gentle, unless you make me angry," she said. "I would be so happy if you could carry a message to my lord father. You have freedoms I do not and even Dorne must trade with the outside world."

"I can take him a message if you wish. Must my own hand safeguard it to him, or can one of my men carry it for us?" Sergio asked, "I do not mind the journey I just need to determine its importance."

She considered. "Can your men be trusted to remain loyal no matter how much money they are offered or what threats are offered to their person?"

"No... quite frankly they can not. I will do it myself then. It will be an honor." Sergio took her hand, and gave it a kiss.

Her eyes lit as he kissed her hand. "The men of Westeros know no such courtesy," she said. "Once I thought all princes and knights must be gallant heroes, but there is no such thing as a true knight, and sometimes I wish I had never met a prince."

"Well I am no gallant hero my lady. Just a rogue who knows how to treat a woman properly." Sergio replied, "But I will do my best to honor you. Even if I must challenge one of your steel clad knights." He kissed her hand again lightly before releasing her hand.
