"Back home, they don't do anything like this."

Serious dresses and stuffy events, yes. Not that those were meant to look like they might be social, but are just reasons for the Sheriff to intimidate the peerage as well as the populace. Was it back in her girlhood, that last time Nottingham even saw a Garden party?

But not eccentric details that seem curiously both serious and silly in turns.

Nor is the comparison one she wants to brood on at present. Not with the sea before them, the laughter of the afternoon behind her, with the pleasant company of a friend, in a brand new wold, and a cup of tea in her hand. Home can wait. A little while longer.

"What kinds of things have they made for your events before?"
