Alessandra did not embrace him, nor give a kiss to his cheeks like she may have done. Casting the tax collector a cool glance as he exited the hall, she was trying (and failing) to keep her own expression to something neutral. It was amazing how similar he looked to his brother, yet so different at the same time! She never noticed the way he smiled before... maybe now her opinion was just skewed?
"It's beautiful here at the castle. ...but there are some things that concern me." She had been in such a rush to come speak with him, she hadn't planned out what she would say or how to say it without offending him. Alessandra decided the honest approach would be best.
"I visited the village today. I've never seen a place in such disarray! Did you know that people are practically starving to death and no one can scrape together a living to even feed their children? And what for..? Taxes?" she pointed a finger over her shoulder where the tax collector had just left. "You have to know how terrible it is. Have you not seen your own villages..?"
