Pelargir

[Vilik]

Vilik smiled, "Of course, my dear." He helped her onto the dock and then they walked together towards town. They passed a few shady looking pubs with a glance before they came to what seemed like a higher class establishment. It was not the type place Vilik was accoustomed to frequenting, but, Idrial was looking so nice it seemed a waste to go to one of the smokey taverns and deal with drunkards and the lot. As they approached the entrance the doorman opened the door for them with a bow and they were led to a by a hostess to a corner table. Vilik pulled a chair out for Idrial and slid her forward before siitting himself. He could help but laugh a little, "I've never been to place like this. You?"

[Idrial]

Idrial nodded a thank you to Vilik for pulling out her chair, and she folded her hands in her lap as he seated himself across from her. "No," she shook her head slowly, "I must admit that I haven't. Unless it was when I was very little." She rested one hand atop the wooden table, fiddling with the cloth napkin that was placed next to her eating utensils. "Are you sure you want to spend the money for this place? I don't know how much it will cost." There was a slight hint of worry on her features.

[Vilik]

"Don't worry about the money, Idrial, its meant to be spent." He grinned, "Besides, you look to nice tonight to be taken somewhere with less class." The waiter came and Vilik ordered a bottle of wine while they skimmed through the menu. The waiter soon returned, sitting a glass before each of them and filling it with wine. The waiter then made a suggestion that they try the lamb, Vilik agreed then waited for Idrial to make her selection.

[Idrial]

Idrial glanced up as the waiter asked her for her order. "I'll, uh...I'll have the same," she said, hastily closing her menu and handing it back to the man. He nodded with a smile and disappeared back to the kitchen. Idrial placed her elbows on the table, tapping her fingers lightly against the top of the wood before realizing what she was doing and folding her hands. "This place makes me nervous," she said with a smile as she glanced in the direction that the waiter had gone.

[Vilik]

Vilik took a sip of his wine and raised a brow at Idrial's comment. "Nervous? Why is that?" He glanced around the room, the lighting was low and the tables were pretty private. "You just need to relax a bit." He reached across the table and placed his hand over Idrial's. He smiled and took another sip of wine. "This wine is great, try a bit." He nodded to the glass that sat before her.

[Idrial]

"Oh, I don't know. I suppose I'm just not used to being in such a setting." She smiled and gave a slight nod at his suggestion. Then Idrial lifted her glass and sipped from the cool liquid. "It is quite good," she said as she placed it back down on the table. The low lighting in the place made Idrial want to rest her head on the table and sleep. It was a very comfortable atmosphere. "Well, thank you for bringing me here, anyway."

[Vilik]

"Well, your welcome, thank you for joining me." He took another sip of wine glanced around the room once more before turning back to Idrial. "You know, you havn't to worry about any guards in this place. They don't disturb the patrons of these sort of places." As he finished his comment the waiter came along and sat their plates before them. Vilik thanked him then looked back at Idrial, noticing she looked tired. "I think tonight we should stay docked here in Pelagir and get a good nights rest. Our next stop is only a days good sailing away, we can leave at dawn. Sound good to you?"

[Idrial]

Idrial tensed a bit as Vilik mentioned the guards, but she said nothing. She nodded at his last statement, looking down at her food as it was placed before her. "Sounds fine." She nodded a thanks to the waiter before he departed. "This looks good." She said with a smile as she took a bite and swallowed it. "Tastes good too." The maiden lifted her glass and sipped from it as she looked about the room.

[Vilik]

Vilik took a bite of his dinner, made an 'mmm' as he chewed then took another sip of wine. "You're right, this is good." He took a few more bites and noticed how Idrial kept glancing around the room nervously. He grinned, "Would you lighten up a little? Nothing is going to happen in this place."

[Idrial]

Idrial glanced up at him and laughed softly. "I'm sorry." She pushed a few strands of hair back from her face as she ate a bit more of her meal. "That really was delicious...but I don't think I could eat another bite." She refolded her napkin beside her plate and looked up at Vilik. She rested her elbows upon the table, supporting her chin with her fists.

[Vilik]

Vilik looked up and grinned after chewing another bite, "Forgive me if I finish mine. The only meal I've had in the last day was a very unfullfilling fish dinner." He gave her a quick wink before taking the last few bites of his meal and washing it down with the last of his wine. He folded his arms and rested them on the table and leaned forward a little. "A fine meal in a fine resturaunt with a lovely lady. It seems this theiving pirate's luck has changed as of late."

[Idrial]

Idrial returned his grin as he commented on the fish and on his luck. "Oh, luck is it, eh?" She reached for her glass, sipping the last of its contents before placing it back on the table with a clink. "If that is the case, then I'd say fate is good." She crossed her legs beneath the table and glanced over to where a waiter had just dropped a plate, shattering it on the wooden floor. "But for him...not so good," Idrial said with a laugh.

[Vilik]

Vilik looked over the stir the dropped dish had caused. It seemed every waiter in the place had gone to help clean up the pieces, causing more of commotion than was needed. He turned to Idrial and gave mischevious grin. "Now would be the opportune time to make an exit, m'lady." He nodded as he stood to a side door that would no doubt lead them to the side street.

[Idrial]

Idrial raised a brow as he led her out into the street. "And not even pay?" She laughed. "A pirate you are indeed." She folded her arms once they were safely away from the restaurant and in amongst the crowd that roamed the streets. "Well, it was a fine meal anyway." She glanced around the area, scanning it briefly before returning her attention to Vilik.

[Vilik]

Vilik laughed, "Free is a good price, don't you think." He slipped his arm around her shoulders as they walked out of the alley and into the stream of passerbys. "Its easy to disappear in a town like this," he remarked as he scanned the streets and faces around him. "Keep a sharp eye, nonetheless."
