Charles narrowed his eyes at him for second or so after he'd spoken. He'd gotten the information he'd wanted but he didn't like to think his curiosity had been so palpable. Either that or the fellow was presumptuous and full of himself and either way he deserved to be looked at sternly.
Denmark though. Interesting. No wonder it had sounded so alien to him, the nordic languages weren't at all similar to English or other western European languages, they probably bore a stronger relation to gobbledegook! "Are you now? What could possibly have brought you all this way?" As if anyone looking to emigrate wouldn't have Britain at the top of their list. The young man seemed rather naive and Charles saw a chance to patronize the man without him even noticing which was his favorite kind of patronizing.
