After the meeting the previous day Kesi showed up at the manse, with her usual guard following her outside the Keep. She was in a Qartheen gown of white and her hair loose, over her bared breast.
She had with her a bottle of her favourite drink, a gift to the host, as was the custom where she was from.

Sergio opened the door and smiled at her. He motioned for her guard to stay at the door, and took her arm, "Come in my dear. It is a pleasure to see you." He walked into his solar.

Kesi smiled back.
"My thanks for inviting me, it has been being a long time since I have been going out for myself."

"Guards? Are they for you, or for you?" He asked with a smile. He took the wine from her, and poured both of them a drink.

"I am not understanding?" Kesi said. "I am having guards because I am lucky enough to be being valuable to Crown. I am thinking that they are to stop me from running away or trying to sometimes."
She accepted the drink with a smile. "I am sorry, living here has been doing much good but I am still struggling with words some of time."

"And it would not hurt if those you dealt with thought you were just a confused foreigner." Sergio replied. "So they are guards to watch you, not only to protect you."

She nodded slowly.
"After all who is not wanting someone that can do as I do." Kesi had no problem with false modesty. She knew that very few were like her in the land and it pleased her. "People that are knowing me are knowing truth."

Sergio placed a hand on her thigh and tilted his head, "I think I would really like to get to know the truth."

Kesi's eyes were on his hand.
"I am not thinking that you would." She said. "After all, we are only just meeting, would be shame to be scaring you off so soon."

Sergio laughed, "I do not scare easy. My life has not always been dances at balls, and meeting beautiful women at court."

Kesi looked up and she laughed.
"Dancing and court is hardly a life for anyone that is being interesting." She said. "I am much more liking of those that are actually doing more."

"I consider myself quite interesting." Sergio replied, and sipped his wine, "But I suppose I could do more if you wanted me too."

"So be telling me something interesting about you then." Kesi said, with a smile, she flicked her blue hair over her shoulder/

Sergio traced his fingers in circles on her leg, and then said, "There is many different things I could say here." He sipped his wine, "I own several shops in the city." He frowned, "That seems dull. Is there anything you want to ask."

"Why being Westeros, why not being in somewhere like Braavos... Is better customer base there I am being sure, especially after the war."

"I have many interests in Braavos." Sergio replied, "But after a war is always the best time to invest in a place. Economies sing after war."

"That and places are being cheaper to buy, no?" Kesi said, only half teasing. "Is many places being empty too, I am guessing."

"You do know many truths." Sergio replied with a wry smile, "I am quite impressed by you."

"I am not spending life hidden in court." Kesi said, sipping her own drink. "Is being rich mans heaven in city like this."

"Braavos is heaven. King's Landing is mildly amusing." Sergio replied, and then studied her face, "Though it does have its perks."

"And you have been busy finding many perks?" Kesi asked easily. "Is funny, I am always finding perks hard to come by."

Sergio's other hand stroked her cheek lightly. "I have a nose for perks. I doubt there could be many who could refuse you."

Kesi moved her head slightly. "Then you are being wrong." She said. "But this is not something that I am wanting to be talking about, if that is being all right? You were asking about King the other day, why is that?"

"I just have been trying to get a feel for the King. He does not seem a good man." Sergio replied, "But you know him quite well."
