"Have the gifts been delivered?" Laine asked Ollica softly.
"Yes, they have been delivered. Ranger Knight Hex personally delivered the gifts to Winford and into Mr. Francois's hands." Ollica replied, her expression calm.
"Very good." Laine had sent gifts to several of his close great nobles, including Duke Boldro Bodric, Duke Bohemond of Bastogne, Duke of Winford Francois, and Marquis Ascot Connelly, as well as Marchioness Surya. The gifts consisted of exquisite deer jerky, Wood Elf jewelry, silk, and fruit wine. They might not be priceless, but they were rare.
As Laine had anticipated, on this day, amidst the heavy snowfall, the Winford Duchy welcomed two distinguished guests.
