[QUOTE="InVinoVeritas, post: 3189802, member: 41485"] The crowd grows silent waiting for the answer to Torhan's question. [COLOR=Red]"Here last midnight? Oh, by the gods, no! That's the witching hour! Only foul demons and devils would be up and about at midnight last night."[/COLOR] The crowd bursts into raucous laughter in response. Even the butcher starts doubling over, grabbing his sides, occasionally oinking. [COLOR=Red]"Why, we were all here last midnight! It's the New Year! We can't let the witches claim that hour every night! Still, I suppose the naked folk wouldn't understand proper wear! If ye care to join the festivities, I'll tell you all about last night."[/COLOR] The gnome in white steps forward to address the trio amidst the cacophony. [COLOR=White]"Come, you showed me and my girls mercy when we accidentally startled your horses. Let me help you understand the new year. First, you will need new faces.

The jester tries to sneak away in the confusion, but Darian's keen eye remains trained on him as he slinks down Markovstrasse, toward the carriage and shop.
