Cabreus House Inn: Old Forum'
Fabio Cabreus, had he lived two generations ago, would have enjoyed a leisurely life as a son of a gentry family. Not a senator, but certainly a respectable eques. The things he had to do now, servants would have done. And servants would have managed the servants, mostly, he'd spend his time politicizing and bartering goods and favors with peers.
He knew little of those times, the Empire was already teetering and unstable when he was born, and his entire life had been in the chaotic post-Empire order, or disorder, with various kings competing for the lands the Romans left behind- and more importantly, the people and resources of those lands.
Burgundians, Romans, Vandals, and two sorts of Goths, Visi- and Ostro- were the main powers competing, and the wars had cost the family dearly. Still, Fabio knew.
Somehow, Bryon managed to live the life of a woman of the upper class, it seemed. She did fairly little, and yet, the elder Cabreus saw the family's ledger book entries turn from red to black, and credited her with it. Like a fascinating art display, she was mostly decoration, but a decoration capable of drawing people in.
This sometimes bothered Fabio, who considered Bryon exceedingly and undeservedly lucky. So, knowing that most of her job consists of making guests feel welcome, he presses her to keep at it.
Upon his arrival, he informs Godioque and company that the Kingdom of Burgundy has leased the entire third floor for Gondioque's use. Their belongings will be brought up for them, courtesy of Martin Cabreus. Maid service is by Persilla Cabreus and their servant Donna.
He asks if this make-shift embassy is to be a publicly known or secret thing. If it is to be public, he puts Byron in charge of acquiring a Burgundian flag, or a reasonable facsimile thereof. This, he says, falls under the scope of "making guests feel welcome".
