'Oui, c'est vrai. I'm a Paladin.'
.o0('I was a Paladin.')
She finishes her drink, wondering if it'd be appropriate to ask for another one.

Cool! Who do you serve?
The door popens and the servants return bearing trays coontaining the food. Onion soup with fresh bread and butter, followed by roast turkey with an aromatic chestnut stuffing, potato and peas. With this comes a bottle of a dry white wine.
*Eowung enters and smiles.* Dinner, everyone.

'Kord, mon petit ami.'
She gets up out of her chair, and walks over to the table, waiting until the family's seated before sitting down herself.

*Thranor seats Eowung. A stern look recalls Sadron his manners, and he stands to hold the seat for Ameena.*

She looks surprised, but sits down.
'Merci, mon ami.'

Eowung carves the meat, Sadron dishes out the vegetables and Thranor pours the wine. Sadron gets only a small amount, and that is watered down.

As a guest she doesn't have much to do but hold out her plate for the food, accepting the wine, and thanking them. She waits before starting eating.

*Thranor eats steadily and sparingly, casting the occasional longing glance towards the dishes, where there are enough leftovers for one more serving.*
*Eowung eats sparingly, not apparently very hungry.*
*Sadron eats rapidly, his eyes mostly on the food.*

She eats steadily, enjoying the meal. It's quite good. When she's finished she drinks the rest of her wine, relaxing some more.

*Eowung, seeing Ameena has finished, looks at her.*
Perhaps you would like some more?
*Thranor offers to pour Ameena out a second glass of wine.*

She smiles at Eowung.
'Non, merci madame, I've had enough. It was very good, merci.'
She does hold out her glass for some more wine.
'Merci, monsieur.'

The servants appear and clear away the dinner, bringing in a simple range of fruits for dessert.
*Thranor pours the wine.*

She sips her wine, helping herself to some of the fruit.

BothThranor and Sadron look somewhat disappointed at the dessert. Nothing sweet and filling. Eowung seems satisfied with the handful of plums she eats.
*Sadron rapidly eats his food and asks if he can be excused.*
*Thranor dismisses him with a wave.*
Ameena has gradually become aware over the course of dinner that Thranor seems a little tense. When Sadron leaves the table, Ameena sees a slight scowl pass across Thranor's face, while Sadron seems a little relieved.

Drinking half of her wine she surreptiously watches the family. She wonders what's going on here, but it's not her place to ask. Shame, she'd like to help if she could. And more to drink, but that'd really be not done.
