He had yet to really internalise that it was peculiar to the man's time and cultural background, because apart from the colour it looked like something he himself might have worn to a court event in his younger years. He beamed and waved, producing a tightly-furled scroll from within his robes as he came to the above-decks door.]

Good afternoon! I hope you are well, Valmont? [He touched one cap of the scroll to the doors and they opened; he ushered his Inmate inside.] Please, after you.
