   Knock, knock. The sound rang on the young Earl's door, "pardon the intrusion, but dinner is ready."

  The door opened, and Ciel and Sebastian walk out.

  "My you two look refreshed, I'm glad to know", Vincent began walking to the stairs, but met up with Kassidy, "My Lady, please allow me to escort you to the table."

  Kassidy held her hand out, and Vincent took it.

  "Have you gotten the rest of the mail from the coach yet", she looked at Vincent.

  "Yes my Lady, I locked it away in my office", Vincent stated as he led the way to the dining room.

  "Good, the food smells incredible", Kassidy replied.

  Once in the dining hall, Vincent pulls out a seat for Kassidy, but by the time Vincent could get to Ciel  Sebastian had already pulled the seat out.

  "Sorry force habit", Sebastian grinned.

  "It's alright, please sit and relax, I'm the butler here, you're the guest", Vincent said as he walked into the kitchen.

  Soon he walked back out, "tonight the chef has prepared  for your enjoyment Tartiflette, a luxurious dish from the French Alps, in it is potato, melted cheese, onions, all of which grown here on the property, also in the dish we have lardons or French bacon. Next for your entree is Croque Monsieur, another French comfort food, it is French ham and cheese sandwhich with cheesy bechamel sauce then baked. For dessert we have a French cheesecake made with fromage blanc and quark. Please enjoy.

  Vincent walked back into the kitchen, and came out with a bottle, "to drink we have sparkling cider, I apologize, but my Lady does not allow alcohol in the Mansion, so this goes best with your meal."

  "Why is there so many French influences in this meal", Sebastian looking interested in the meal.

  "Are chef was born in France, so he learned a lot of the cuisine, especially comfort food.

  The doorbell rang followed by a few knocks.

  "I wonder who that can be", Vincent looked out toward the grand foryer.

  "Vincent answer it", Kassidy groaned, "it better not be ridiculous."

  Moments later Vincent walks back into the dining room, "My Lady, you have a visitor from the Queen. "

  Kassidy stood, and walked out to the foryer.

  Out in the foryer...

  "Hello you are the Lady of the house I presume", the messenger said in a bow.

  Kassidy looked at Vincent, "yes that's me."

  The messenger stood akwardly, "I have an ergant message from the Queen."

  "Go on", Kassidy said with urgency.

  "Recently the Queen's guard dog had plans to travel through this region, he was to message back to her when he had gotten to the town he had told her, it is way past that time with no contact from him, or his servants. This is making her highness very nervous", he stopped, "she had hoped that you have heard from him."

  "Tonight you eat at my table, the young Earl you are asking about is at my table", Kassidy smiled, "I will call the Queen, and tell her he is safe."

  "Vincent set a place, we have a visitor", Kassidy turned to Vincent.

  "Ofcourse my Lady", Vincent bowed.
