"Nice to meet you Nari, I'm Sylvar. Correct me if I'm mistaken but isn't that Jaskal Dark, the famous chef over there? I hear he makes the most interesting dishes."

Theren nods. "Love is a fickle thing my friend."
'You're telling me! That's why I'm here for a drink'

Theren smiles, his eyes twinkling slightly. "And that I can provide."
Sylvar finishes his meal and excuses himself from Nari.
"I don't wish to appear rude but I can't pass up this chance to meet Jaskar Dark."
Sylvar rises and so does his female companion. He makes his way over to Jaskar's table.
"Pardon my intrusion but did I hear you make an offer for help in finishing all of this? My name is Sylvar by the way and although I just ate I haven't had desert yet. May I join you?"
"Absolutely! Well, met, Sylvar." He passes over a plate of cake. "I implore you, eat as much as you like. I won't mind."
