[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 6035660, member: 4936"] To her credit, Arcata's face betrayed no hint of the storm that the merchant's words stirred up. Only someone who knew her fairly well would understand what the slightly too-long pause meant. She'd been thrown off balance for a moment, but recovered with a smile.
