Gerulf returns from lunch and settles back down with The Stag, The Hound, and The Prince of the Seven Crowns. He remains focused on his work save for a few concerned glances, and the two study in something of a cold silence with only Tranquillina's occasional outbursts cutting through the thick air. He watches as Alexandria leaves and observes that it is near to suppertime anyway. He quietly closes the book but leaves it in place for tomorrow's studies. As he approaches the door, he turns to say something just as Tranquillina emits another 'Ha'. The sudden stop seems to cause him to reconsider, and he quietly shuts the door behind him as he leaves.
