[ Perhaps surprisingly, Mielle's showed her face today after being a total nonentity all of Monday. She looks a little uncertain, shooting more or less everyone a sidelong glance when she thinks they're not looking – it's pretty clear she's trying to feel everyone out. And given what they're here to do... who can blame her, really? ]

... Before we start... I'd ask that you forgive my prior... unbecoming behaviour when we arrived here. It's true that our situation is quite dire, but that's no excuse to behave so poorly – or for failing to properly introduce myself.

[ She gives an abbreviated curtsey, juts a spreading of her skirt and a bow of the head. ]

My name is Mielle Roscent. I am the second daughter of Count Roscent and the youngest child of House Roscent. I do hope you'll see fit to support me in our time here.
