Maea's interest in the chef might not have been quite as piqued as Hadama's own, but he was pleased to hear that she was now also intrigued - and willing to follow him into an adventure of a different sort than their usual hunting forays. "That is what we are here to learn." Hadama tilted his friend a subtle wink as their hostess turned away to lead them into the brothel's depths. "Just how extraordinary they are..." But the concern over his reputation had the humor fading to a thoughtful silence and he was quiet as they were seated.
Once their orders were in and they were alone once more, the Tidebreaker turned his calm gaze upon his friend, even if her eyes were on the ceiling and a delicate coral blush lent her pale cheeks some color. "I do not find you ill-favored," he said quietly. "And this is the most respectable brothel in Stormbreak. If my reputation cannot withstand either of these, then it is time it was broken and reforged."
He tilted his head, serene gaze on his dinner companion as he studied her face, concern warming his emerald eyes and gentling his voice. "What has happened?"
