I bow. "As His Grace, Prince Diocles, has already told Your Grace, we will be staying in your fine city but a fortnight, after which time we shall be moving on."

"I would be curious to speak with you about what it is like to serve in the Court of another Cappadocian," he says, with a polite nod. "If you have the leisure during your stay."

I return his nod. "I would be happy to speak with Your Grace on such matters, perhaps we can plan a time; I would hate to have stayed in your lovely city, yet missed the chance to speak with you on such things."

"By all means," he says.
(If you want to do that, you will need to open a private thread.)

{Five successes on my Perc + Etiquette}
Out of courtesy for the officials in our group (presumably I will also wait until Sir Roland has made his introductions?), I content myself to make my introduction last. As I wait politely, I take in everything (and everyone) in the room, trying not to show my enthused curiosity amidst this exotic new location. Alas, I am not well-traveled, and perhaps it shows.

(3 successes on Perc + Etiquette)
"I am Sir Roland Desprez of the Courts of Love and Muse of Performance to Lord Michael." I bow deeply. "It is a pleasure to meet you Prince Bela."

The Prince inclines his head. "Even here has the fame of the Muses of Michael reached. Perhaps you would do us the honor of a dance sometime during your fortnight?"
Clearly, he expects that you will dance for them, not construct a dance for participation.

I bow low, with a slightly flushed enthusiasm that I try to mask with a casual flourish.
"I am Alexios, childe of Khay'tall, resident of Prince Alexia's Byzantium."

There is no flicker of recognition in any way. The Prince says, "You are welcome to Sofia. Your assigned grounds, all of you, will be with those of Prince Diocles for the duration of your stay."

"We would appreciate it," says Prince Bela. "You could speak to my Chamberlain about a night." He gestures vaguely toward a knot of Kindred, chatting quietly by a window, overlooking the courtyard.

I bow and head over towards the knot of Kindred. I stand and wait politely to be recognized so as not to interrupt their conversation. Although I do enact my superior hearing to see what it is they are discussing.

(You probably don't want to do that since it is a huge crime to use Disciplines at Elysium, like, blood hunt level crime.)
You approach, and a female Kindred, tall, elegant, and with a warrior's grace, is the one who looks at you. "I am Ilinca, Chamberlain to His Grace. How may I direct you?"

I bow low again to the prince.
"Thank you , your Grace. Honor and glory to your fair City."

The Prince inclines his head toward you. "Enjoy the sights of Sofia, Alexios of Constantinople."
