[QUOTE="Neurotic, post: 8989122, member: 24380"] Akos bows to the young woman [COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]"I'll convey your greetings and wishes to Sir Tymbek, my lady."[/COLOR] [COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]"Go with the blessings of The Queen of Summer."[/COLOR] [COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]"We shall see.

He smiles at the halfling woman and steps boldly forward [COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]"Hello, hello, good lady.
