"Well, you've no reputation here. I know the stories from Westeros...but this is not Westeros, nor volantis, nor Tyrosh, nor even Mantarys," he said. they enter a garishly decorated room and he opens a closet door. "Please, take your pick."

Reyna looked through the gowns and choose on in deep crimson.
"The fabrics are so beautiful," she said with wonder. "They are so much finer than those we have in the west."
She looked over her shoulder at him.
"I confess, I am not as well informed as Your Grace."

"I hope not! I have to know everything," he grinned. "It will look splendid on you."

"I'm sure it will," she said. "Where shall I meet Your Grace once I have changed?"

"Back on the balcony, if you'd please. Do you require any assistance?" Sirius asks as he turns to leave.

"No, I'm sure I don't. The robes here look much easier to get on than our gowns back home."
So Reyna dresed herself, brushed her hair smooth before binding it up to stop her neck and shoulders from becoming hot, then went to meet him on the balcony.

A small table of fruits and finger foods and several bottles of wine that cost more than a typical ship are awaiting her. Sirius nods in admiration. "A vision of beauty, my lady. Now, how can New Valyria help you?"

"Ah, well, since you know who I am, you know that I came here seeking an alliance between the Iron Islands and New Valyria."

"Of course," he smiled. "The Iron Fleet will be invaluable should Volantis make good on their threat to join our enemies. And having an ally with a dragon is never a bad idea," he said. "What terms were King Euric thinking?"

"He means to sack Volantis and all our enemies," she said. "The spoils to be divided up fairly between your people and ours. I would suggest a binding alliance. Perhaps through marriage?"

"Interesting...with the Ghiscari alliance perhaps a war on the Free Cities would be in our interest, to ensure they cannot support Vhagus. Who would you recommend for marriage, now?" He looks her over with a slightly new interest. Tristessa's bust is smaller than Reyna's so her dress definitely accentuates her chest.

"King Euric has children," she said. "A boy and a girl. I regret I do not know your family well enough to be sure who would be suitable among your kin."

"No one of those ages, sadly. I have yet to find a wife, and my family is but recently betrothed." He thought.

"Oh. I see. That is unfortunate. May I ask why it is that you have not yet found a wife?" Reyna asked. "It's so sad that you have nobody."

He nodded slowly. "Well, I have people, but it can be lonely at the top. I am surprised, if I may avoid offense, at you. I had expected a great admiral, or perhaps a pirate lord, but I got the flower of the Islands, it seems."
