There are certain rules of courtesy when interacting with nobles that are
commonly known throughout the realm. Here is a short 'Points of Conduct'
list to provide guidelines to what the average noble might find rude.

1) Never wear a cloak or another garment to the extent that it hides one's
identity

2) Never whisper in front of a noble.

3) When in Lithmore, speak the King's language or the native tongue of the
noble in question, no other. Nobles should understand all speech in
their presence.

4) When one wishes to leave a noble's presence, one should ask for leave
under the following conditions:

a) When in direct communication with the noble.
b) When you and the noble are the only two people present, whether
or not communicating with them.

Note: If given an order or request requiring one to leave, it is
courteous (and often simply intelligent) to ask if the noble
requires anything else before doing so, but one does not need
to ask to be excused as the implication resides in the order.

5) When wearing a weapon with a cloak or other possibly concealing garment,
one should push the garment aside to indicate that their weapon is
secure and their dominant hand away from it. (Ex: tossing one's cloak
over their right shoulder. Note that a movement to draw the weapon would
give the noble, or the noble's guards, the chance to react properly.)

6) An inferior, be it noble or otherwise, shall always walk on the left of
their superior. Therefore all retainers of a noble will walk on the
noble's left, as well as nobles of lesser station. Likewise, all
retainers of a noble shall stand at least three feet behind the noble to
the noble's right or left during audience or casual meetings both.

7) If seated when a duke or the King enters a room, one should stand when
they enter and only seat themselves when indicated to do so by the
duke or Queen, one of their retainers, or after they seat themselves.

8) When traveling with a noble, the noble should be allowed to mount first.
If one noble travels with another, the superior noble is to be allowed
to mount first. This holds true for dismounting as well.

9) If one speaks to a noble, or enters a noble's presence (or a noble
superior to one's self) while mounted, one must take steps to ensure
equal footing. That is, one must dismount if the noble is not mounted.


Note: This is just a short list of things that would be 'commonly known' it is not
intended to be all encompassing. Each noble may have their own personal
preferences as well. Act accordingly.
