It was a middle-aged man who was overweight. He had dark brown hair and a beard that was darker, almost black with white gray hairs speckled across it. "Hello, my Guest, and hello to your fair young lady. My name is Sebastian Amabilia" Said Sebastian as he leaned a sheathed sword on something then took Jack's sword from his hand and did the same. "Hello, this is my.. Uh.. This is Emilia. My name is Jack Sydes. It is nice to meet you Mr. Amabilia" Jack purposely introduced Emilia first Jack learned that was the polite and proper way to do so. "Please call me Sebastion. Emilia... I have heard that name... Oh, aren't you a royalty or something? My apologies." Said Sebastion as he kneeled down and kissed her hand. This gesture filled Jack with pride as he realized Emilia's high status. Because due to Sebastian addressing Emilia as his he could see himself in this situation as royalty. "Don't get mad Su... I mean Jack it's just common courtesy" Emilia said, nervousness in her voice. "Why would I ever get mad?" Jack said in shock as he saw this as a huge compliment to him and Emilia. "Please come in," said Sebastion. Jack impulsively kissed Emilia on the cheek as soon as Sebastian turned around causing her to blush a bit. Sebastian walked over to a small round table with two chairs, he then grabbed a chair that was in front of a very tall bookshelf that had miscellaneous items on its shelves. He set the chair at the table pulled out for Emilia and sat down.

Sebastian: please take a seat

Jack & Emilia: *sit*

Sebastian: Where are you from Jack?

Jack: A place very far away that you haven't heard of

Sebastian: Are you from earth perhaps

Jack: How did you know?

Sebastian: I didn't, it was a guess, I had a friend from earth. He was from a mountain village in a land called Albania. I taught him English he taught me some Albanian which was a language never introduced to Lagunica before.

Jack: Did he teach you Kanun? (Kanun is translated from Turkish and means law. Kanun is an ancient set of traditions still practiced by Albanians especially in rural mountain villages today. But it is also quite controversial due to it having rules on blood feuds and revenge killing. Thus making it an issue for modern-day Albanians some Albanians particularly dislike Kanun due to this.)

Sebastian: Yes, he taught me a lot about Kanun. I abide by a lot of those traditions. But what land are you from?

Jack: I am from America. But speaking of Kanun umm where's the meat, bread, and raki? (an alcoholic drink drunk by Albanians made from grapes or plums)

Sebastian: I was about to get to that *gets up and grabs a plate of the items*
