Niamh looked from the flute to the woman. "Who are you, anyway?"

@J. Magi

"That's a deep question. Not sure if even I know the answer yet." She looked down at the flute. "For now, I'm a traveler. Far from home in an alien land. That's the jist of my life right now."

"You should really stop coming here. You're only making it worse for the both of you."

There was a pause.

"I have to try... and even if I fail, I still get to see her."

Robert sighed and put a hand on his forehead. "If you were able to beat me, you would have by now."

"I have to try," the man repeated.

"It was only going to be twenty years at the start. You know that."

"... yes."

"Your doing this has gotten it to be over five hundred."

"Which makes me that much more desperate."

Once again, Robert sighed. He seemed to do that a lot with this man. "Your dedication is honorable. Really. But if you hadn't done this, she'd only be here for another two years."

"Please, just let her..."

"If I could, I would. But you owe me a debt you can't pay me any other way, and every time you come here it gets larger. It has to be either you or her, and we both know it can't be you. Your wife has to stay at home, and I can't take your wife from you."

"Please-"

"No."

A longer silence. The next thing the man said was shaky and quiet.

"But she's my daughter."

"I'm well aware. But you could pay no other way."

"Then let me-"

"No. We're not doing that again. You'll lose and make it worse for the both of you."

"Please-"

"Go home." Pause. "Go home."

The man got out of his chair and began walking towards the door.

July did his best to hide any expression that would give away the fact that he was listening. Hearing the conversation rap up, he hurridly grabbed his tray and went back to working at tables. Luckily he did so before the door was opened.

Arke smiled from the corner of the ceiling he was hiding in. Novice.

Too late.

HOW DO YOU HORRIDLY PICK UP A TRAY?!

I imagine him fumbling and almost dropping the tray about six times and almost getting caught because of it and bumping into everything but miraculously not breaking anything or making too much noise.

That's a run-on sentence and a half. 😂

She smirked. "Ma'tani. Sometimes you have to be more specific, or people will think you're waxing philosophical."

July approached her table, her stew in hand.

"So you take the time to introduce yourself to others, but not me?" He wasn't being snarky, just genuinely confused.

Niamh gave her a blank stare. "Anyway." She held out her hand. "I'm Niamh."

Ma'tani blinked. "I never told you my name?"

Arke chose this moment to make his entrance. throwing his kunai dagger into the table right next to someone's hand, he drops from the ceiling and sits down calmly at the table like he totally didnt just do that.

Niamh immediately jumped up and pulled two silvery daggers out of the folds in her clothing, the lute hitting the ground.
