"Well, yes. It will be easier if you know something about the man. At least you can get a good look at the contestants before the tourney begins," Violet suggested.

"Well were would I find it? I didn't see it when I signed up for some of the other events.."

Violet had neither participated in or attended a tourney so she wasn't quite sure, but she had at least read some books and listened to songs on the subject.
"You could ask the Master of Ceremonies, whoever that is. Belric will know. There has to be a list, for matching up the contestants, and the man in charge of that will know who is entering."

"You're right but I'll tend to that after I sit here for a while." She smiled at her cousin,"What do think of our family stature now?"
"I mean we're being graced by some of the great houses here."

"Perhaps," replied Dacey, also somewhat amused. "Our brother would get a good laugh out of it. Should the bear take after his namesake, however, perhaps you ought to name him Jormun or Dacey instead," she joked. "We'll stick to Belric unless he starts to terrorize the villagers. A strong temper would suit a bear well." Jormun glances at Aelison and Violet conversing together, a small frown forming on his face. "I've had enough of this hall, however. Let us hunt."

"Yes. We've risen higher than I once dreamed possible," Violet admitted. "I'm grateful to Belric for that. I'll have a better rank of husband than I ever dared hope for and it seems you will too. But I won't forget where we came from."

She smiled, the statement was true, if Belric had not gained his favor and fame the familu would still be ... On the low end. "Oh I'll never forget, no matter who my husband turns out to be."

Violet smiled. "It would be wrong to forget, anyway. But do you have any thoughts at all yet who your husband might be? Come on, I'm dying of curiosity!"

"Well..", she thought,"the young See Bracken doesn't seem too bad, but I believe I heard he has wandering eyes for the ladies.."
"Ser Piper also, not a bad specimen", she chuckled. "But I do not know them, so I can only go with what I heard."

Violet flushed and gazed into her wine cup. "Yes," she murmured. "He was flirting with me earlier. But perhaps marriage would steady him. He's pleasant company, though, flirting aside." After a moment she asked "He's handsome, isn't he?"

Aelison grinned,"Very.... And marriage may steady him, but that would dependnd on the woman" Smirking as she sipped her wine,"but there was also another that has had my attention for a while but I don't think Belric would let me marry him..."

Violet's eyes widened. "Who is that?" She asked. "Is he a lord?"

"I'm not really sure", she looked puzzled fit a moment. "And I don't think he knows that I'm interested either..."
"His name is.....",Aelison leaned and whispered to Violet,"Hoster Shoreham.."

Violet frowned as she tried to picture the man. She knew the name but could not recall having ever spoken to Hoster personally.
"He and I are not acquainted," she admitted. "But I hope, if you like him, he is the man you will marry. He's a younger son, I think. But would you be happier with a younger son?"

"Unfortunately, he is the second son", she replied," but his father, I guess is one of our vassals?" She put it in a question, because this is new to her after all. "So I don't see Belric approving that union."
