"Fine," Orel nodded.

Enriki got up letting him in. Orel sat down in his place and looked at all of them. They were sitting around the table, in the order he'd chosen for them once. Enriki next to him – self-assured, dignified, clad more expensively than the others. His face was calm and beautiful, free of any scars or paint. His hair combed back showed his high forehead, his ears and fingers were decorated with gold. Then Lis – his long dark-red hair spilled over his shoulders. The stare of his piercing eyes was burning but with cold, not with heat.

Sitting in front of Lis, Bert Squint-Eye was dressed worse than the others. His jacket was old and worn out, its lacing torn and tied in knots carelessly. Squint-Eye's hair was coal-black but there was something very attractive about him. Enticing, bewitchingly dark beauty only a well honed and lethally dangerous blade could have.

Then a bumpkin Tol, rough but incredibly charming.

And right in front of Orel – Nik, the only one in a tight back mask covering his face completely. Only his eyes glittered merrily through the slits, not covered with black glass tonight.

"What's wrong with you, Arel?" Tol asked in surprise.

"Nothing," Orel shook his head. "It's nothing. I just… I just love you all so much!"

Everyone laughed happily.

"Ooh, Arel, thank you! We love you too!"

He looked at Nikto, looked in his grey eyes. Nikto slowly pressed his forefinger horizontally to the corner of his lips hidden under the mask. Now Orel knew it meant a smile.
