I must say, the gentlemen of Minoc are certainly delightfully attentive and well mannered, if a trifle rustic. It makes a very welcome change to be treated with respect and deference, after my disgraceful treatment in Trinsic. Perhaps Irvyn could send some of his more ape-like guards here for lessons in how to behave when in the presence of their betters. They certainly need it!
A very kind gentleman made me a present of some furnishings and decorative items for my new home. He was quite aghast when I told him of my cruel and neglectful treatment at the hands of my former husband, I daresay it does seem hard to believe, especially as Irvyn was always so obsequious at Court, especially in the presence of Lord British. I wonder if I should write a book about my experiences.........
I must find out where the local caterers are, so that I can arrange an intimate dinner for the dear Commander, to show my gratitude for his great kindness to a lady in distress.
Speaking of ladies in distress, there was one in his office today; or rather a female, she seemed a little unhinged and not a person of quality. I do pride myself on being able to recognise instantly a person with good breeding, like myself. Sadly we seem to be a dying number.
This particular young woman appeared either deranged or simple-minded, possibly both. She sat in Commander Jurrel's office babbling about her family and some dreams. I hope they will take her off to the nearest asylum soon, she quite unnerved me with her ravings |
