Willim Daranek

"Welcome to the Platinum Redoubt, I'm Willim Daranek, your host, will there be something you're particularly interested in that the house can provide?"
"Hi, I'm Piersa Ouranos, I was here recently with a friend, and I just really liked my experience, so since I'm still in town, I thought I'd enjoy it during my leave?" Her blonde hair swayed in the breeze.
"But of course, and as a friend of Amarat Jr(char) Veneer you've been classified as a friend of the house, of course you can visit at any time."
"Amarat can do that?"
"Lord Veneer is the closest thing we have to an owner, he is always welcome here, there is nothing legal I can think of we would refuse if he asked."
"Gee, make me feel better why don't you? I had to interview with him for a job, he's quite scary..."
"The house sympathises, I had to interview with him myself..."
"Oh, what was that like?"
"I was a recent graduate of the Friuli school if Tourism and Hospitality, I applied to the house, figuring they'd never give me the time of day. Lord Veneer invited me to interview on his visit to Ternae, he said 'totally non formal, bring yourself here, think of enjoying our hospitality and tell me what we can improve.'"
"How did that work?"
"I was like totally logjammed, I mean I couldn't articulate any thoughts, I mean, the most famous restaurant in Arnd, and this lordling, I had no idea how important he was, but he was every bit someone who had inherited more money being born than I'd ever see in my entire life."
"His annual stipend is probably more money than you'd see in your life..."
"I'm sure you're right..."
"His annual non-com salary is more than money than I've seen in one place, he gives it to charity."
"Oh dear, I suspect his ownership..."
"I'm sure his ownership of the house is quite genuine, but I doubt it's based on money... He's probably interested in reputation."
"The house has plenty of that, would you have a preference of floors?"
"What, you're kidding, I can't afford the second floor, let alone third!"
"You're the house's guest, you won't be paying today."
"Please, do not play with my feelings like that."
"I am not, Lord Veneer has left strict instructions, you're only behind Skua Flora Rolli, Lanungmei Sirtis de Broceliande , Na-Anormei Avalline d'Ankeryn but you are all to enjoy his table if he's not here to enjoy it himself."
"What, no wayyyyyyy!"
"He left the orders in writing if you doubt me."
"No, no I trust you, it's just unbelievable!"
"What's unbelievable, his father willed him a controlling interest, you are his friend, and his guest, I'd sooner present my arm to be amputated than present you a bill for the house's welcome."
"Hmm... You're just saying that."
"I do not want to see Lord Veneer angry, please, can I guide you upstairs according to his intructions?"
"Well, if you think it'll make him angry at you..."
"Yes, he did say you were to be the next thing to himself."
"Like that's believable, he's like two and a half of me!"
"Well he didn't mention anything about how lithe and graceful you were... He was saying we were to treat you as we would treat him or a member of his family."
"You get a lot of his family?"
"We had Meihomei visit last fall..."
"Meihomei? What was she like?"
"We receive rulers regularly, here at the house, she was, as most rulers are, most considerate."
"And considerable, I'm sure..."
"Ahh, yes, we would consider anything to hamper her pleasure to be most vexing."
"And I'm behind that?"
"No, heavens no, hampering your pleasure, as a friend of the house, would be much worse!"
"You're just playing with me..."
"No, really, there's royalty that comes second to you in here, not by much, but they come second."
"Like the magistrate of Abendeen?"
"No, like the Archduke and Hetman of Sarn, Sarnath, Ralt and Luxem."
"What, no, that makes no sense, he's the husband of another owner..."
"Oh, maybe he's a bad example, but the king of The Grand Unified Kingdom of Breezh, Pickt, Mannheim, Delite, Dejoisey, Deguernsey and Kelty would have to wait until you were seated."
"Now, I think you're making fun of me, a commoner Flag Officer from Kagomei, a nation not even in the G-12?"
"All of that is irrelevant, any of us who offends a personal friend of Lord Veneer would find their employment quite shortened."
"Just how high is he?"
"As the owner, he makes the rules, as the second in line in the line of succession in Kagomei, not many would say he's irrelevant, didn't his mother sign the largest treaty in the history of Arnd?"
"He's now first in the line of succession too, and second in line to be Telbun."
"What's a Telbun?"
"It's a rank above major of the Navy?"
"I had no idea he was that high, we definitely should call him Zim."
"Zim's in Kagomine, not in Alessian, are you making fun of me?"
"No, I wouldn't dare, I mean we should call him Monsieur."
