{{ In case anyone was wondering Xarces is going more on what he discovered the night before in the rumor mill/ what he thought about himself (which just so happens to be what Alizome and gunthar where talking about)  and the discussion with Alizome last night coupled with the discussion that just took place in front of him, he doesn't of course know for a fact anything about the man, but he knows well enough not to trust him and simply went along with the same course of action that Alizome was already displaying. Mirroring her performance, as even though Xarces may not pick up on things, she very well could. Xarces is quite good at bluffing and so even if he does not grasp the entirety of what is going on I believe he would be able to jump in as he did, going along with her course of action to either ask or be filled in on the details later. he did ask that the mules would be the meal as that is what he would assume to be the alternative to his over imaginative thoughts from the night prior. ]]
