[ He knows full well what is expected of a servant, but he slips up sometimes. Fortunately for him, he has a relatively forgiving master, but he still tries his best to learn and remember how he should behave. Staring at the master's daughter is hardly appropriate behavior, although he has already realized that he wishes he could look at her again, and for a little longer this time.

But even though Lord Fortemps is forgiving, even he would not tolerate someone outright ignoring his orders, as Aymeric well knows.

He offers first his master and then Alkaid brief bows before straightening up once more. ]
Yes, ser. I will show her to her room and help with whatever she needs.

[ And once Alkaid steps forward, Aymeric moves to join her, standing beside her but a little bit behind her too, out of respect. ]

If you're ready, I'll escort you to- to your room. [ Again he stumbles over his words, but he tries not to draw attention to his fumble. ]

[ How indeed... It might appear silly, but as a servant, he believes he should not walk beside her as an equal would, but slightly behind her. He can still give direction should she be uncertain where to go. It is not a long walk at all, nor does the path there take too many turns or changes in direction. Perhaps he has grown too used to following along behind his master.

But before too long, they arrive at what is now her room, and he is quick to hold the door open for her. Once they are inside and she takes her first look around, he very nearly grins at the sight of her reaction. But he must act as a servant would, behaving properly and with what those older than him call decorum. ]


A lot of them are, yes. The master and the mistress have the largest, and their sons' rooms are also large.

[ There isn't any point in mentioning the servants' quarters, as she did not ask that, and why would she? Even so, their living arrangements are just fine, and as Aymeric has been reminded, could be much worse. ]
