Theodor Lennox appeared under the shimmering afternoon light, tall and calm. His chestnut wavy hair lightly fell over his forehead, and his deep brown eyes gleamed with a calm intelligence. His smile was not dazzling, but it held a warmth that put those facing him at ease.

"Your Grace, it's a pleasure to see you again."
Glancing past Rosalind, he caught Elise's familiar smile — the same quiet warmth that never changed.
"And you too, Elise."
"It's a pleasure to see you again… my lord." Elise reply with bright smile.
After a brief pause, a gentle smile curved on her lips. She stepped forward, wrapping her arms around the friend she hadn't seen in so long.
"Hello, my friend… it's truly a joy to welcome you here, Theodor."
"Likewise, Your Grace."
