High Muul was already there. Thane too warmed a seat. Timmay went to practice for the performance competition. Alrissian acted as his guard.A game of chance with cards was another way to win or lose. The elf maiden from the High Company was winning too often. Bartol watched her closely. She was skimming cards off the bottom of the deck. But she was very fast and very good at it. “You cheat,” Bartol accused.No one else noticed. She flashed a big smile and exposed a little more flesh and none seemed to care. She did however collect her winnings and leave the table.“I must prepare for my performance,” she said as she exited.The Wheel of fortunes, the largest draw at the gambling tent,  was easy enough to understand, but harder to win.  Twenty slots spun. Entrants could bet on any of the individual numbers or on the trends, odds or evens. Ten gold talents was the maximum bid, 1 copper penny the minimum.Bartol bet odds. Thane bet evens. High Muul and Bernedette scattered the field.“Lets spice it up, shall we, High Ball?” Bartol enticed High Muul. “Platinum says I win.”“Done,” High Muul replied. “I hate taking your money. It isn’t even a challenge. But someone must teach you a lesson.”The bets went back and forth. The parties killed time until the performance competition was ready. Bartol ended up 4 platinum ahead. Everyone else lost coins.Bernedette tired of losing and frustrated by the team competition’s early end, leaned over to High Muul.“I have 10 platinum and 40 gold talents,” she stated. ”That says we will win the talent competition.”“Oh, little girl,” High Muul answered, “You know not of what you speak. I’ll take your bet. My money’s on Rachel”“Next event,” the crier called, “the talent competition.”</blockquote>
