As she entered the room, she would immediately notice something different.  Gone were the standard cloth sheets and simple chair in the corner.  The sheets were replaced with ones made of the finest of silks from far away lands and covered with thick blankets made of the fur of exotic creatures that were as rare as to be considered myth at this point.  Tucked away in the corner of the room was a low table surrounded by soft cushions and on the table were bowls of exotic fruits and snacks that weren't often seen in this part of the world.  And sitting in a high backed chair made of dragon hide as Shamlen, a soft smirk on his face as he saw her finally joining him.<br/><br/><em>"I was wondering how long it would take you to join me."</em>he said in that same voice that he knew sent shivers through her core,<em>"May I offer you a drink of wine?"</em>. He stood and walked over to the low table where there were two crystal goblets and a bottle of some sort of wine.  Without his heavy fur coat, he had a thin, almost lanky build, but there was an underlaying power to his movements that spoke of hidden strength.<em>"I highly doubt you've ever tasted a wine like this."</em>he said pouring two goblets and offering her one,<em>"It comes from a conclave high in the mountains.....a single bottle is often worth a years wages.  I hope you like it."</em>
