Raoudha bows gracefully
Your kind words are appreciated, and I hope Cijara will be able to count on you as you'll be able to count on it
... although I doubt it, she thinks. Words are cheaper than acts. Yet, better a nice, useless, hypocritical resident than a reckless, dangerous one like Claudia would have been
(OOC: It's hard to play a nice character having such bad thoughts!!!)
Now, that would be interesting. Etienne is a nice fellow, and seemed pretty competent, despite the lack of preparation and direction his master gave him. If he doesn't see the value of his servant, she certainly sees it, and it is pretty clear to her he would be a great help in administring Cijara. Being a man, he would also be useful when needed to send a representative away.
This... This is a very generous offer, and it is well appreciated. In the short time I spend with Etienne, I had a glimpse of his skills, and must say I quite need the help given the turmoil here. But what would he think of it? Would it be okay for him?
She'll make sure the family are fed, well housed, explain them the basics of Cijara navigation, and attach them a maid or two, possibly children, so that they have help should they need it. She'll then excuse herself, and go on towards resuming her accounting T-T
