Inside the Tavern
The Black Void - Episode 2361
|
The bar is poorly lit and crowded, and it has lots of alcoves, so we have
to go inside in order to search it thoroughly. It has been a long day and
I'm tired, but if we want to catch up with Teran we can't afford to have a
night's rest first. Perhaps my weariness is why, as I pass a chair, I fail
to give it a wide enough berth. My robe catches on the end of the wooden
armrest, and with a ripping sound is pulled away.
Underneath the robe I am wearing a very similar outfit to the one that I wore for my ill-fated visit to the Sultan, except that this one is in pink rather than sky blue. [2174] I'm wearing less jewelry than I was on that occasion, not having anticipated a special occasion to wear it for, but I still have a gold bracelet on one wrist, diamond earrings and a necklace of diamonds and rubies. As ill luck would have it, I'm right beneath one of the oil lamps that are suspended from the ceiling, rather than in one of the darker corners, so I am very obvious. From the all-male clientele I receive a chorus of wolf-whistles and ribald comments. Someone grabs me by the arm, swings me round and plants a kiss on my lips.
