Apologies, Apologies.
A wooden desk sat in the middle of the room. The man behind it seemed to be an Adult, maybe Younger, but he was not elderly. He kept his eyes trained on the woman sat in front of him.
"And your name is..." he said, waiting for her tongue to form the words.
"Pam Marsden. I am a friend of your father's" she replied.
"With your permission, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Max Skills and I can be, with no doubt, the best butler you've ever met.
Take a look at my Skill Journal below if you are considering my services." He spoke to her as if considering the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. He also gestured at a book. Opening it, Pam saw that he was skilled in all areas.
"I can take care of your house completely, be a good friend for your family and a teacher in any skill you want your simbabies to learn." he continued. Pam stopped him there.
"Listen. You somehow knew my phone number, and booked yourself an appointment with me, phoning me in the middle of the night. I am impressed. That entity that called himself the body of the Sea ensured my privacy. You're hired Maximus."
"Please," he told her, "call me Max."
Suspense over! And extreme delay.
