Even though he didn't keep the visitors waiting, by the time Valentine arrived at the border a small crowd had gathered. His gaze was immediately drawn to Kassander. The King was relieved to see him there and in, as far as he could tell, good health. That last time they'd spoken the Ebony king had been rather down. Not long after that Katja had come to Imperium claiming to have taken over Ebony and she'd been rather vague about how exactly she'd come into possession of it and not a word had been said regarding the fate of the former king. He appeared well and for that Valentine was grateful.
His gaze flicked to Katja and he addressed her first. "Katja, Kassander, welcome." Valentine dipped his head to each in greeting before the jars finally caught his eye. He was vaguely familiar with those things, familiar enough to know that they usually held something of interest. "What have you there?"

NOTE: Valentine has a female striped skunk companion named Lefty. Unless stated otherwise assume she's present.
