While Lady Helena always thrived on a good intellectual debate, this was far from that. This was a falling out and her ladyship wasn't pleased in the slightest. She sucked in her breath and watched as Sir Nicholas, whom she always got along with remarkably well, had decided to drift off rather than stay in their company. That was hurtful.

The Grey Lady didn't say anything to him or Alfred when they departed but turned to Baron next when it was just the two of them in the room. "I'm afraid I must take my leave too," she said with a small sigh, "Thank you for taking the wiser route in this, Baron." And with that, she drifted off with as much grace and poise as she could muster.
