Eliza eyed Gull suspiciously even as she schooled her face to look harmless and hapless.  She didn't know what game he was playing, but she was still determined to win it by the end of the evening.  She took a shimmer-silk napkin and set it to the side of her plate, discarding it from her mind.<br/><br/>She decided to change subject for the Gull, "Yes, speaking of<em>festivities</em>will you be joining us, Gull?"  She asked.  "Despite your age, I would be willing to admit you'd make a healthy showing.  We have many fine nubile men and women for you to partake with?"  She said with a wry smile.<br/><br/>She looked to Lakshmi and then to Nadira.  "You'd be welcome to join us too, Sister.  Something tells me you're the kind of girl who loves to be fed grapes from a naked body.  Am I wrong?"  She said with a giggle at her own audacity before sipping her wine.
