Formality had a comfort to it, he hadn't realized how useful it was until the Undersea delegation arrived. Also it gave him something to do after that horrible car ride with May and finding out that Toby had contacted the Night Haunts again.

There was a way to deal with everything though hauling the chair from storage was a pain, but it worked. He could see that even Toby was reassured by knowing that in her position as Countess, there were certain steps to take. Raj understood that too and it was nice to know he was on Toby's other side, they along with Marcia and May would show that Toby had all the honor due a Countess.

Not that those were enough when the Duke of Saltmist talked about how he had been sent his son's finger. His breakfast almost came up, but he had to stand straight though a noise escaped. Raj chose that point to ask embarrassing questions of the Duke, but then there wasn't a reason for him to know that when Daoine Sidhe lived long in the Undersea, their magic could be diluted. At least Toby didn't ask him to help her, he would have to learn more of blood magic but this wasn't a time when he wanted to practice. Helping with refreshments was much simpler and something he knew how to do instead of thinking what she would feel from that finger cut from a living boy.

When they came back, Toby had the scary look on her face, the one that meant she was getting closer to a plan and a way to save the boys. He always felt better when she was determined and thinking, it might there wouldn't be more waiting. The Roane with her prophecies was disturbing but she did mention that the Luidaeg would soon be involved, which was even better. The Luidaeg knew how to point Toby in the right direction and keep her safe.
