[Rilan had not missed the table already prepared for his arrival, and while he's curious to try what the native food of this planet is, what will be the food he enjoys in the future, his interest is still primarily on the young woman he's come to stand near.
He inclines his head to her as she does the same, and offers her a faint smile in greeting. There doesn't seem to be any reason to hide his interest in her, after all, this is the first time they have met, so he does not. She looks just like the photographs, and the holo vid, but there is a certain vibrant quality that gets lost in translation of reality to technology. For a Barrithian, she is human. But for a human, she is stunning, and already he finds her presence enjoyable. Something in her voice, or the way she holds herself...
Her distinctly un-Barrithian qualities make her very appealing.]
I have absolutely no doubts that I will. [Pollux V is not Barrith. It already has everything to recommend it. Turning, he reaches out to offer his hand to shake, a gesture of equals.] While you already know my name and a little about me, let introduce myself officially. My name is Rilan, of the Dareth family, soon to be of the Primarch family.
[And oh, isn't he delighted to be able to say that. Leaving behind his family name for hers will be excellent. As part of a political marriage he can hardly cut ties with the planet and people who put him here to begin with, but what distance he can gain from them he'll do so with eagerness.]
