No need for a stripsearch

Lily (thinking): Nah, let's be civil, it's cold outside here, nobody should be stripped naked like that! Besides, they know Julia, they can't be bad people now, can they?

You tell your men to let them pass into the manor's interior area, where you meet them personally. {if Erik = true}Erik and Robert are both on their guard though, they have both warned you about the dangers of leaving the manor itself. {endif}{if Erik = false}Robert is on his guard though, he has warned you about the dangers of leaving the manor itself. {endif}Two of your knights checks if the couple has any weapons on them and they let them near you once they found nothing. They both bow and kneel before you.

Giovanni: Oh, great, honourable {if Social hierarchy = 80}Duchess{endif} Lily! We are ever grateful for you listening to our plea! We departed the lands of Duchess Julia some time ago, ever since that time, we have been travelling and trying to make a living on our own, with little luck so far. We were offered to settle down at a nearby noble's lands, but one day, some mad nun appeared, preaching of nonsense, almost enslaving everybody in those lands! We had **** but to leave as soon as we could to get rid of that maniac! I'm a stableman, I could take good care of your horses, I promise! My wife here, Cornelia, used to be a servant in Duchess Julia's house, she never received a singe complaint from her! You have my word, we will be your faithful servants if you would have us!

Cornelia: Please your highness, we have nowhere to go! Our spare money is running out, the weather is cruel, without a place to stay we are certainly doomed! We barely have enough to pay for an other night in a tavern!

Robert (whispering): My lady, I would definitely recommend not allowing anybody into the manor in these dire times, you better think twice about having new servants!

Lily (whispering): Thank you Robert, your concern is noted, I'll think think this through now before I make a decision...

Lily: I would like to tell you, that about your plea, my decision is that...
