The room

"What I want you to do is to tell me if Prince Brean comes to you." says Dahlia

“You want me to tell you if he comes to me…” he repeated slowly, to make sure he understood what you were asking of him.

"yes, I'll give you as much coin as you want" says Dahlia

A slight smirk formed on Luke face at her words. He clearly wasn’t going to turn down the offer of money from a princess.

“Of course, Your Highness…” he said, a hint of formality in his voice as he bowed his head slightly towards her. “It would be an honor to take your money…” He chuckled a little. “princesses are an interesting bunch…”

"You don't inspire confidence, but anyway, how can I reach you when I need you?" says Dahlia

Luke chuckled at her remark, clearly not taking it personally. He was used to people thinking he was untrustworthy due to the nature of his profession.

“There is a secret room under the bar we were just in a moment ago…” he began explaining. “It’s a place where I like to take clients sometimes, when I need to discuss things in private. Very few people know of its existence…”

"Well, how do you get in?" says Dahlia with a little suspiciously.

With a small grin on his mouth, he said, "Don't worry, princess, it doesn't have a magic entrance like you think. That would attract too much attention. My room is just down the stairs from the bar."

"then show me" says Dahlia

Luke chuckled at her bluntness but wasn’t surprised. He was amused by her attitude towards him, especially knowing who her were.

- “Right this way, Princess…” he said motioning for her to follow him. “Don’t worry, it’s not far…”

He began leading her towards the bar, keeping his hood up to hide his face.

As him entered the bar, several of the customers who were there looked up and took notice of her both. But Luke just kept walking, ignoring their stares.

He continued walking towards the back of the bar, where a door was slightly hidden in a corner. He pushed it open, motioning for her to go in first.

Dahlia takes a step forward and looks in. The room is magically lit and the aura is strong, there are large bookshelves and a desk in the center with sofas and a table in front to sit on...

Luke follows behind her as her walk into the room, closing the door behind him.

He looks at her “Make yourself comfortable” he says, motioning towards the sofas.

Dahlia looks at the sofas he shows her and as she walks towards them, she removes the hood of her cloak, revealing the blond, slightly wavy hair that only royalty have.

The man watches her take off her hood

He wasn’t surprised, having figured out that her were a princess the moment her first spoke to him. But still, seeing her show her royal features was a different experience.

He chuckled quietly to himself before speaking. “So it’s true…you really are a princess…” he said, his smirk returning.

Dahlia says "yes" after sitting on the sofa and crossing her legs.

Dahlia sees the newspaper on the table and picks it up, she is not sure of the date, so she checks the date.
