[QUOTE="Kaodi, post: 7514777, member: 1231"] The early morning at the Creekside had been mercifully short on patrons, leaving Shendra to her preparations in relative peace. But as she approached the Circle where larger crowds congregate her mind became remarkably more turbulent. She had strange intuitions now, noticing things she never would have before. Sometimes it seemed like there were extra voices in her head, though she was not sure whether her mind was just addled or whether she actually 'heard' things. More people meant more 'whispers' . And the things they said often tended towards the scandalous. Shendra spotted Mei Ying chatting with the young woman from the laboratory accident and a man who seemed a bit distant. The voices grew louder. She tried to suppress them momentarily. The Tian woman was a scholar of ancient Thassilon of some kind; maybe someday she would tell her what sort of trouble came of poking around old places where you do not belong! But for now she squared her shoulders and approached. "[COLOR="#B22222"]I suppose I shall have to pray for the second best bargain then,[/COLOR]" she says a bit airily and with a mischievous smile.
