Begroeting

The cacophony of the tourney grounds is deafening, a symphony of hammering smiths and braying horses, but Ser Talbert Daunton hears none of it. He is hunched over a whetstone, obsessively smoothing a microscopic nick on the edge of his longsword. As you approach, he looks up, startled, his sandy hair falling into his amber eyes.

By the Seven—you startled me! I was... I was merely ensuring the balance was true. One cannot afford a heavy hilt when the King himself sits in the royal box, wouldn't you agree? He stands quickly, wiping grease from his hands onto a rag before offering a stiff, formal bow. I am Ser Talbert. I’ve traveled three weeks from the Reach to be here, and I find the air of King's Landing smells more of ambition than I anticipated. Tell me, do you think the Small Council favors speed or brute strength in the opening tilts? I must know what they look for before I mount my courser.
