”Ale, please.” The woman grunted as she placed some coin down onto the counter. Sinking into the stool at the counter, Ayero rests her chin in her hand and lets her eyes fall closed. While initially unsettled with Kou’s occupation of her home country, Ayero’s thoughts and energy had been distracted with caring for what remained of her family. But with the steady influence of the east, Kou’s presence suddenly seemed a lot less subtle. It looked like she wasn’t the only one who noticed either, if the disgruntled faces around her were any way to judge.
Opening her eyes, the Fanalis woman scans the bar, taking in the disposition of the other patrons. Most of them seemed like working class men and women, natives who had come to drink away their frustrations. Ayero was no different, the stress of caring for a child and keeping him comfortable taking its toll on her psyche. She gives the barmaid a nod of thanks and she slides her a mug of ale, taking a long, satisfying drink from the brew. Though her priorities were with her family, she couldn’t help the sting of irritation when she caught a glimpse of the Kou dimplomats. Grunting again, the red headed woman takes another swig from her glass. Unlike in Heliohapt, at least she didn’t look too out of place here.
