Happy Night?
Kiev have suffered a lot. Yet, a City is more than Ghettos and Houses, Buildings and Churches. It is people.
Inhabitants difer. Some say the Wife of the Khan is celebrating her birthday, some say that the Khan have become a Christian and he is celebrating, others say that the Viking Commitaus are the ones celebrating.
In the end,it does not matter. Tables upon tables, full with fruits, cheeses, breads, chicken, meat and fishes are available to anyone that wants to eat. No one is turned away, not the old or infirm, or the young and strong.
The Noble House that sponsors the feast, it is clean, the garden has been prepared, and even if no one is visible, and no one dares to brave the Vikings and Mongols guarding the House, more than one pour man, woman or child, thanks the generosity of whoever owns that place.
A few whisper that foreigns and nobles are the only ones that can access the House, beyond the gate.
The Cainites that wants to be at the Party, must post his/her entrance here.

[ooc - does nobody want to be first to arrive?]
Salvatore approaches the prince's manor, anticipating a good evening. The prince may be many things, but he knows how to throw a party.

A servant, dressed in finery, gets close to the newcomers, and bow.
Welcome, your Lordships and Ladyships. The Prince will be here shortly. He has requested we offer you refreshments, if you need them.

Re: Happy Night?
My evening has been quite interesting so far. I have just come from a meeting with the various guild leaders and major shop-keepers. We are working toward getting the economy improved. Of course, the Mongols will require a bribe to allow more import/exports, but that is not unexpected. I will discuss this with them later. Turning to the servant. "Thank you, no, I require nothing at this time.""My evening has been fine sir as I hope yours has been."

The servant bows, as he leaves your side, giving you privacy.
The room looks strangely subdued.

Salvatore smiles at Edith's comment. "We shall see, senora, we shall see." He leans in a little and nods toward William, "have you seen this stranger before?"

William looks around the room, looking at the buildings architecture. Waiting for the prince to arrive.

You can hear the people in the street, laughing and celebrating.
No one seems to hate the Mongols tonight.

Salvatore takes the pro-offered hand. "I am Don Salvatore Giovanni, nobile of the most Serene Republic of Venice. It is a pleasure to make your acquintance." He turns to the lady present, "and it is also my pleasure to introduce you to Lady Edith." Turning back to William, "are you, hmmmm, English, no?"

Salvatore looks surprised. "But then you must have English parents or grandparents, perhaps? I mean, your name, Stafford, it is from that noble family, is it not?"

"My Great Great Grandfather was english. He was the Trade Ambassador for England. He married my Great Great Grandmother and retired his position as Trade Ambassador. My Great grandfather married one of the nobel's only daughters. His lands passed on to him. Then of course the lands fell down the first sons linage."

"Ah yes, this is most interesting. Have you ever been to that cold, barren and rain-swept land? Alas, I have never been myself."

"I took a trip with my father when I was but a boy. Its not that bad. It is actually a beautiful country. I went in the height of summer. I did not see any swamps but it might be different during the winter months. The only problems we had was in France on the way back. A couple of Jews starting asking for money. Naturally we knew better than to give Jews money and made a hasty exit. We didnt want to risk them breathing fire on us."
(OOC: Just to point out I am in no way antisemitic. Just meerly roleplaying what people thought of Jews at this time)

[ooc - that's understood.]
Salvatore nods as if this is sound wisdom. "Yes, we have cleared them out of the Most Serene Republic, but the holy father allows them free reign in Rome and it is only a matter of time before they are infesting the market places again. This is most disturbing to me and to my chaplain." Salvatore sighs, "but, it must be said, they can be shrewed in business and it is never a bad idea to deal honestly with them. Perhaps, eh, this will show them sound Christian values?"

"I dont know. I think any dealings with them are a bad idea. Well excluding driving them off your land with torches and pitchforks. So tell me how long have you been in the city?"
