Seems like the welcome wagon was out for the visit.

Storyline possesses enough action to move the tale along.

Several different directions you could travel this accounting in from this point forward.

Hi there,

it's probably getting to the point now where you should maybe consider including a synopsis or background information/summary near the beginning. Whilst not ideal, on the site people read a great many stories and books and won't always remember where you are in a particular story. This aides in refreshing their memory and also can entice newer readers to the work. It's almost a month since the last instalment as well.

Marquis Gregoire's father, Lord Charlois, greeted his son Marquis Gregoire as he ascended from the carriage. - I would suggest deleting the repetition of Marquis Gregoire here after son. It isn't needed.

after some years absence.- should be an apostrophe in here.

I like that you kept the more formalised language. It is very fitting for the tale.

All the best
GMG
