"No more reason than to see if your noble mother needed my assistance. It's to my advantge to keep a good reputation with the Lords and Ladies in the area."

Nicolette smiled. "Makes sense. I certainly wouldn't seek enemies with the rival lords, even with our dragons."

"It's never a good idea to have powerful people dislike you, particularly when they have enough power to hurt you from a distance." She agreed. "Still, I hear favourable things bout your mother, so I hope Lady Cassandra will agree to employ me."

"I presume you mean in the same manner you take most of your employment?" Nicolette asked.

"Of course." She smiled and nodded to the girl. "My system has been working so far, I see no reason to change it."

Nicolette smiled. "Surely you don't intend to do this forever?"

"Perhaps not, but for awhile longer, m'lady." Madame Guillotine answered.

"Why are you interested in my future affairs, my lady?" Madame Gullotine looked to her, her lips pressed thin.

"Information is fragile and dangerous in my line of work my lady. In the wrong hands any piece could be wielded like a weapon against me. And the very walls have ears to receive it. I prefer the world to know as little about me as possible."

"As you wish, Madame. I do not know of anything my mother might need your services for, but there may be something she has not discussed with me," Nicolette said. She was not the favorite daughter.

"And that's why I was down here rather than heading immediately up to the castle." She said with a couple. "The sorts of things I'm wanted for, and the sorts of things discussed with anyone who doesn't already know, are never the same thing. I never did get a chance to inform myself. Oh well, hopefully she'll take me helping you as a show of good faith and I won't need too."

"I am her eldest unmarried daughter," Nicolette muttered sourly. "I'm not just anyone."

She laughed. "Oh, my lady. There are so many people who think they 'aren't just anyone.'" She shook her head. "The fact is, who 'just anyone' is changes from situation to situation and it doesn't matter who you are, there will be times where you are considered to be 'just anyone.' I mean no disrespect, that's just how secrets work."
