As he sat, Kaladin noted that most of the patrons in the bar seated themselves in groups. He recognized some as from Northhaven while others were strangers to him. Either way they all kept their distance from Kaladin, well most of them did anyway. The strange, multicolored eyes flicked over to the brunette he had seen earlier as she took a long swig of whatever swirled in her glass and then rose. She had been alone in the bar as well and Kaladin had been about to look away from her, assuming that she was preparing to leave. Then she did the most peculiar of things and turned around and made her way to him.
He watched her as she walked up to the empty seat across from him, bright smile as she asked if she was allowed to sit, then seated herself anyway. He always seemed to attract the crazies it would seem, Probably because he was half mad himself. At least she seemed to have the proper manners when she introduced herself. Edy had followed him around for half the day before she had offered up her name.
"Clearly not." Kaladin said acknowledging how the rest of the patrons were trying their hardest to ignore Kaladin as he pulled hard straight from the bottle. He grunted as the bitter taste tickled down his throat, this shit wasn't much better then the piss poor wine he made himself. "Had you been from where I'm from you'd realize that I prefer to do my drinking and skulking alone." His tone was rough but not necessarily mean or threatening. Part of him was impressed that she had the nerve to get up and make small talk with a complete stranger, the other part wished she would just bow her head and leave. Kaladin wasn't much for entertaining people these days.
