Elizabeth
The name definitely strikes a chord, and Elizabeth lets a small widening of her eyes be the only evidence of her familiarity with the demigod's reputation. She takes a small sip of her strong beverage when she pulls her glass back, using the act to take in the same clues Ronin sees. There's one specific man who has a large pile of bets piled before him, looking a little too confident. It has Elizabeth paying especially close attention as she lifts her cards up to see a good enough hand to play out the round.
Ronin's offer makes her smile. "That's very sweet of you, but I've got it." She still has a few extra gemstones from her visit to the Climb with Evie. They glitter enticingly as she places them on the table. The movement is accompanied by a tingling sensation that runs up her leg. Elizabeth glances at the man next to her, wondering if he was getting handsy as she swipes her hand down the bottom of her travel skirt. Luckily, it turns out to be a wine-spider that she sees scurry off to the next table. A small sigh escapes and she flashes Ronin a grin, returning to the game. "I might need some help with this game though." Her eyes twinkle with untold meaning. He seems the kind that would help her foil whatever unsavory plans these men are up to, if he's up for it.
