Closed starter for @warscorned
While Renaud considered himself a man of many talents, he was humble enough to admit that he wasn't infallible and perfectionist enough to grow irritated when he didn't have an answer that he thought he should possess. The guard should have been nothing more than a brief acknowledgement, someone that Renaud saw and then allowed his eyes to flick past, but something about this man bothered him. The plague had stopped royal travel for years, so why did this one man stick out to him so?
"Have you ever been to France?" It was said congenially enough, the sort of idle question that might come before an invitation after their current engagement ended, but Renaud's interest was hardly polite. If the man said no, then perhaps Renaud would need to send a spy after him to figure out exactly who he was and why something niggled at the mind.
