Mr. Aurelius Barrowclough

About

Steward of Schloss Aurelin for forty-nine years and the quiet architect of the whole romance, conducted entirely through seating charts, corridor timings, and the strategic withholding of umbrellas. Communicates disapproval exclusively through the word 'Indeed.' Runs the household pool. Wins it.
