Henrix sighed softly too, and both didn't share a word for a while as Karigov wrote some notes on what seemed to be the progression of the town. Henrix looked over at the door and smiled noticing that an old portrait of the family was hanging near it. "The door to the family is friendship ay?"

"Hm yes that is what our father used to say and claim it to be our words." Karigov continued to write noted never the less distracted by his brother at some occasions. At a sertain length Karigov just looked up from his papers and handed them to Henrix.

"Brother what do you think of becoming my head counsil manand a fellow Helexis lord in this town?"

Henrix sat back in the chair and read over the notes. "I hardly think it'll be necesary to have me around Karigov, you're cappable enough aren't you?"

"Well the fact that Horister tried to kill me made it rather clear to trust only same blood in such matters of the town..."

"Ah yes. A rather sad happening I might say too... You're alright are you not?" Henrix seemed rather concerned with his older brother his health as henrix himself is unable to have any kids since a horrible riding accident on horse.

"If you mean having childeren in the future don't worry, unless I do not find a suitable lady to aid with this." Karigov laughed and then looked back at Henrix questioning him for the awnser wether or not he will become the first counsil member. Henrix looked dead serious at Karigov staring back in the same questioning look as his brother is giving him and then he just started to laugh. " Well ofcourse brother you can always count on me, but where shall i find lodgings for myself and my dog?"

"Well I supose that..." Karigov was interupted as someone knocked on the door of the office. " Enter."

"Excuse my interuption milord, but there is frightful news from the counsil." said a tall man wearing what seems to be a carriers uniform.

Karigov looked intently at the man and then Henrix just sighs. "Well spit it out man we don't have all day, Lord Karigov has much work to do."

"Ah yes ofcourse milord. A smaller house has been taken over by Polana Gorboran, and that by force." said the carrier.

"Well that is wonderful news!" Karigov shouts with a hint of happiness, the carrier looked sickened bu the expresion but Karigov explained that Polana was a friend of his although he and she did not see eye to eye on how things should run and had a duel which Polana lost and backed out of the industries that Karigov had set up prior the death of his father.
