Istredd suspects he is a nobleman from that explanation and he follows it up with his true title, confirming his correct guess. It probably is for the best the Summoned has more people who care comfortable in this setting. Too many of them are awkward like Istredd, they need more like Rhy, so he is all for this.
"Yes, too many of us were still adjusting from our ordeal. Healing took longer than we probably expected." Mental healing, that is no where close to happening yet, but most of the physical problems are wrapped up. Istredd came close to dying a few times, but he was still one of the healthier ones compared to the people who needed to literally have things cut out of them.
"I'm Istredd, I'm a mage, usually in our welcome parties I help people go to the Horizon or teach them new magic if they wish. I can do the same for you, if you are interested. Not here, but later." It is easier when everyone can simply meditate together at the party for the Horizon and go in to handle it. They will have to do what they can.
"I'm afraid you've come at a difficult time, Lord Grey, but the Thorne Summoned do try to look after their own."
