[QUOTE="Kobold Stew, post: 4787834, member: 23484"] [COLOR="DarkRed"]"There must be something about me,"[/COLOR] Gala says to her new table companion. [COLOR="darkred"]"I wander into a Dwarf village, and I've yet to have a conversation with a dwarf."[/COLOR] She laughs to herself, though the laugh is an uncomfortable one, and emerges in short spurts, a series of high-pitched barks, as her lips pull back into something that might be a smile. As she looks at the half-orcs, standing by the bar, their shoulders pressed against the ceiling beams, she wonders how bad her conversation has to have been. Gala licks the back of her hand, and pulls it past her ear, smoothing her short hair, and begins to speak again. [COLOR="darkred"]"I don't know when I've last seen a drow on the surface. What are you doing here? Have you heard anything about the orc advance?"[/COLOR] She's trying to be nonchalant, but she's not a great liar, and even the mention of the orcs brings back the burning feelings inside, as she remembers all she has lost, all they have taken from her. As Gala reaches for her drink, she knocks it over, spilling the dwarven ale over the table, the puddle advancing towards her new companion. [COLOR="darkred"]"Ach. Sorry,"[/COLOR] she says, reaching with her hands to try to stop the liquid's advance, unsuccessfully. She can make the distinction with the half-orcs. That's easy enough, when you know what to smell for. But with the drow it is different. They don't brhave as nature tells them; they choose not to. Gala stares at her new companion, shaking the beer from her hands, but not wiping it on herself. Gala is ready. It wasn't a good bluff, and the dark elf probably sees it for what it is, a sort of test. But she wants to know how he will react. [/QUOTE]
