There was a flurry of pleasantries at the tables as Fade greeted Guido, Marcus and Fade exchanged handshakes and Marcus briefly spoke about his work as a weaponsmith. Guido was about to say more, when another figure approached the table. From his seated position, it was the sword and dagger that first caught Guido’s attention and his eyes swivelled up to appraise the new arrival. He was a youth of around the same age as those already present at the table and, in common with the reimancer, had a pair of bright green eyes.
“Please, join us, I’m sure that we are all happy for more company.” The youth shot an inquiring look towards Fade and then motioned for the new arrival to take one of the empty seats. “We will soon have enough for a party. Perhaps I can make the introductions: I am Guido and these are my...friends... Fade and Marcus. Marcus was just speaking about his work as a weaponsmith. I can see by your attire, that it is a subject that might take your interest.” He let his eyes rest on John’s sword. “Personally, I favour the bow, although I do not claim to have any expertise.”
