It was true that he was not the most handsome but he cleaned up pretty well and she liked his earnest strong silent demeanor. Now she just wondered what sort of trouble she could manage to get him into this evening. And that was the thought that had her smiling.  She took the few steps to close the gap between them and attempted to slip her arms in his, a slightly clingy gesture as she very literally was going to hold him by the sleeve if she could get her arm through his.<br/><br/>"Look," Ishara pointed to a gathering of people about a block away at the intersection. Behind the people was a large stone fountain and all around the circle an array of colorful carts. "I bet there will be gleeman and prestidigitators down there. I know it's all just trickery but it's fun. Let's go."<br/><br/>She was pulling him along in that direction, a flute beckoned onlookers to gather and voices could be heard singing a variety of songs. The light hearted tunes with their tawdry lyrics gave rise to rounds of laughter from the crowds.<br/><br/><em>"We'll dance all night til the moon runs free,<br/>And dandle the lasses upon our knee,<br/>And then you'll ride along with me<br/>To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."</em>(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-8jkmZIzBI)<br/><br/>At one cart a gleeman with colorful patchwork cloak danced a jig in time to the tunes and juggled flaming torches. Still another there was a slight of hand prestidigitator showing card tricks. Ishara would run up to watch him for a moment. With the cards, the man told a story to gathered children, a card with a bunny on it disappeared into the deck and the children would choose a new card. Each card had a wolf on it with snarling teeth. "The bunny he must go, run run little bunny, hop away to your freedom," the man said. In the next moment he waved his hand over the deck of cards and out popped the bunny card, slowing peaking it's head then hoping out onto the table. With another wave of his hand a puff of smoke and a real bunny appeared. Letting go of Yfan's arm if she held it still, Ishara cupped her hands to her mouth in surprise at the trick then clapped her hands. "Bravo, bravo," she said.<br/><br/>Turning back to find Yfan. "Tell me that wasn't adorable," she said. Twirling as she pivoted on her tiptoes to look around  her robes fluttered outwards. Then she hopped up and down to look over the heads of some gathered folks. "Oh, let's go there." Off in the distance a rowdy group in a pub all pounded on the tables and sang along to some unseen gleeman inside. They were half spilled out the door and leaning against the walls, the scent of heavy<br/><br/><em>"A Lugard girl, came to town,<br/>to see what she could see. could see<br/>With a wink, of her eye, smile on her lip,<br/>She snagged a boy or three, or three.<br/><br/>With an ankle slim and skin so pale,<br/>She caught the owner of a ship<br/>With a soft little sigh and a gay little laugh,<br/>She made her way so free. "</em>(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uC_5sM_l3oQ)<br/><br/>Drawn to the rowdy crowds like a moth to the flame, Ishara heedlessly dove into the drunken crowd. Her pale blond hair all that could be seen weaving among the pub patrons and moving ever deeper inside. In a second she was gone from sight somewhere inside.
