Indeed. It is a place named Alfonse from which I hail, although I doubt that you have heard of it. You don't strike me as a young man born of the same world as I.
Nevertheless, the northern lands of various worlds on the other side of the Door seem to have the blistering cold in common. It has been brought to my attention that you too are from such a wintry region.
[A brief pause, for dramatic emphasis, and then Isley continues once more. At last a smile alights upon his face.]
Strangely enough, we've more in common than that, or so I am told.
You own a creature known as a direwolf, correct? Quite recently I've also come into possession of one. I was wondering what you might be able to tell me of these animals, and whether or not they come from your world. I've already seen for myself how quickly they grow, and how territorial they become.
[Listening listening listening - oh, there we go.]
Direwolves are rare where I'm from, rarely seen South of the Wall. They are also the sigil of my father's house. Ghost was an orphaned pup and now my companion. If you have one, it would be wise not to underestimate it.
I have invited your father to dine with us in our household, but I am charged with arranging a date and time. Do you have a preference, Jon?
As well, I would like the rest of your family to attend if they are able. Would you speak to them on my behalf?
I also expect to have in attendance Rigaldo, Dawn, and Lelouch. The first because he lives with us, the second as a personal guest of my own, and the latter because I have taken him into my services and he shall be taking care of all the preparations.
[Jon grits his teeth. He doesn't say that Ghost kept her from falling. That the direwolf and his master had been of opposing opinions on what should've happened to that woman, or that he's fighting the urge to slit the animal's throat for it. He can only say one thing, spitting the words out like venom.]
[ and backdated to late evening, same day this post went up. ]
[ well... this was an internal battle. first it was the battle between to call or not to call, then to video or not to video, to text or not to text, and when she finally settled on voice, the first battle'd had a second wave. it was a never ending sort of internal debate, and by the time she actually bit the bullet and turned on the Forge, it was late and growing cold. the grass beneath her was growing cold to sit on and though it was a warm summer day, she'd begun to shiver. ]
[ her throat hurt. there were bruises in the shaped of fingers. that's another good reason she hadn't used the video feature. there's a hoarse quality to her voice when she speaks; she might be trying to hide it, but it's there. ]
[Jon was...mostly certain that it was her, even if it didn't entirely sound like her. But it was her Forge ID number. And really, Jon doesn't get a lot of girls calling him at any hour.]
[ She should feel bad for calling on him this late. She should feel bad for calling him at all. It only takes a few seconds for for feeling bad to set in, actually, but by then the voice in the back of her mind is already screaming to out with it, Everdeen. ]

[He folds his hands beneath his chin, but a smile has yet to grace his smooth features.]
My name is Isley . . . Isley of the North. Pardon my forwardness, but I am told we have a few things in common.

...Tyrion Lannister has asked to speak with me in person. Would that I could say no.

Is there an occasion for it?

And, come to think of it, it is about time I put all those chairs in the dining area to use.
[Never mind the dining area itself.]
