Megilien watched a young man walk into the room. She sipped her wine, intrigued by his quiet entrance and the fact that he looked somewhat familiar. She saw him notice her as he grabbed a mug of something, presumably beer or rum. Megilien looked away, but watched him from the corner of her eye.
He watched one of the other men, with a look of terror in his eyes. After a time, he walked over to her. Megilien wasn't in the mood to be drooled over, but didn't object when he asked if he could take a seat. The young man sat down. She turned to face him, and took another sip of her wine.
"What's your name?" she asked quietly.
