Aurianna glanced at him, her curiosity momentarily piqued. "Where are Peter and the others, anyway?"
"I lost track of them, but I'll catch up." He nodded. "See you later this evening, Lady Aurianna."
With a quick bow, Juvin turned and disappeared into the crowd, leaving Aurianna standing alone once more. She watched him go, shaking her head.
"What a strange guy," she muttered, resuming her walk. After a few steps, she glanced around. "Where are Avriel and Zagan, anyway?"
She sighed, feeling a surge of restlessness. "I'm so bored.. And I guess I'll have to make more suckers faster than usual. This wasn't part of my plan. But I guess some tweaks to it wouldn't hurt," A wry smile crept onto her face before she munched in some cake.
