He smiles.He picks out three of the starfruit, testing each one to make sure that the meat of the fruit does not yield too easily to the slightest pressure, ensuring that each one is of ample ripeness.  Then picks up two bunches of quince and an appetizing loaf of bread.  Waiting for Felix to pick up his lunch, Hedowin finally turns around and looks for a bench or table to sit down at and begin his meal.  He then notices that Ebony had left his shoulder, when, he really can't remember, but he sees his raven sitting not more than 15 feet away perched upon a free table.  "Come, come!" He chirps, bobbing his head up and down."Ahh, I see that Ebony has procured us a table, let us go join him."Hedowin goes and sits down, and draws a slim dagger from his belt and sets to work slicing the bread and starfruit.  He throws a hunk of bread to Ebony to begin working on."Nothing more odd than the star-shaped cross section of the starfruit," Hedowin says,"it sometimes makes me think that this fruit might have something more in store for it, besides plain consumption."He drifts off slightly, thinking of the stars and cosmos and the various outer planes.</blockquote>
