"Hey," Frost Lily said with a mischievous smirk, "put the guy's food on my tab but only if he describes in<em>exact</em>detail, in Common, what he's doing when he eats it, to all the ladies here." Getting her blueberry pie, she skipped out of the bakery without another word.<br/><br/>The baker shook his head at the retreating sorceress, but his attention was on his new helpers! "I did not see where they went, I was so exhausted that I fell right asleep, and when I awoke, they were gone! It was a variety," the baker sighed, "to be delivered to a meeting of merchants this afternoon. Oh, there were strawberry ones and blackberry and the little lady introduced me to something called 'choco lat.' It was supposed to be my big break! The merchants are ruthless, they will ruin me if I don't deliver. Oh! They were all about this size." He presented a hot pound cake on a wooden platter, freshly glazed. Despite the name it was a little under four pounds in weight, and it looked light enough that stacking too many others on top would squash it. Forty of them would probably take either a large crew, or a big hand cart and someone to pull it. Neither would have been remotely inconspicuous!<br/><br/>"If the weight is important, you may need to keep this for your investigation? Especially the hungry young man." He nodded at Maria and Sophie, "I did not see them, but I have heard stories about these men accosting rich young women and demanding jewels, they are very armed. I don't know why they would do this to me, I am just a baker."
