Jeremy had been trying to ingratiate himself with Kurt. He did seem a bit out of place as he must have been expecting something much more formal. Stacy had mentioned this about the nobles she dealt with.

"There have been people sent by Odin to your new castle," said a goblin. "They have accelerated the process, this might be one of the last of these."

"I didn't…"
"Lighten up, I'm agreeing with you." Turning back Kurt said, "Is there anything from Lilly?"
"Probably another week or two and she'll start the campaign."
"Campaign?" said Jeremy.
