Abia found herself with the largest bewildered expression upon her face. She had heard somebody asking her for more ale, but when she asked the patrons near where she stood what kind, they all looked at her blankly. None of them agreed to having asked her for anything.<br/>The bar was loud, between the music and the chatting, she wa surprised she could hear anything over it. Perhaps she didn’t? Maybe it was all in her imagination. She mused over the possibility as her eyes scanned the tavern, stopping when she met the eye of the man she had previously spoken to. With the eye contact, she quickly strode over to him to help him, “did you need something else, sir?”<br/><br/>Before he could answer, however, she heard Victor over at the bar pipe up and yell out to everybody something about a virgin. “I swear, I think there is something honestly loose in that man’s head.” She shook her head and sighed. Glancing over back at her current customer, she noticed the empty tankard. She put on a knowing grin and nodded, “I’ll fill you up in a jiffy.” She grabbed his cup and made her way back to the bar.<br/><br/>Once she got there, she noticed Sarah’s face was redder than her hair as she stared at Victor with the most shocked face, mouth open and eyes wide. Her features didn’t look too different from Abia’s when Victor mentioned staying in her room that night. As she poured the glass for her other patron, she gave Victor a scrutinizing glare, “....what is wrong with you? Honestly. Did somebody drop you as a babe?”<br/><br/>————————————<br/><br/>Meanwhile, Guy has been minding his own, ignoring Victor’s outbursts, thanking the ex-soldier for the money, though he had no need of it. He simply sat, and watched. He may not be as quick as he was in his younger years, but he was still sharp. The mind is a terrible thing to allow to decay away too early.<br/><br/>That’s when he noticed the young man walking in while reading. He shook his head at how he handled himself, walking right into a wall. “Hey! Put the book down and read when you’re not moving! Even the dumbest of us know that you can’t get far when you’re not paying attention to where you’re going!”
