[QUOTE="pathfinderq1, post: 6538192, member: 48394"] As soon as she realizes just who is approaching, Lenya relaxed the pull on her bowstring and slipped the arrow off the nock. She did not, at least immediately, go so far as to drop the arrow back into the quiver. Her trouble had been with humans, so far, but she did not know the tiefling or the dragonborn... As Markus approached, she bowed, ever so slightly- enough to show some respect, but not enough to break her gaze at the corner that the group had rounded; it was almost as if she expected a threat from that quarter at any moment. Indeed, as Markus stepped closer, he would be able to see that one sleeve of her bulky coat was slashed open, the edges of the cut stained with blood beneath a crude bandage. Her voice was as quiet as ever- only those who stepped closer, like Markus, would be able to hear her clearly. "[COLOR="#00FF00"]I am sorry to impose uopn you, but I know so very few people in this city.
