Eilidh noticed that Bart had returned, along with that slightly human-hating Viera from yesterday, and waved at them both calm yet cheerfully. Bast offered her the first glass as promised, but thankfully made no other comments. The Centaur gratefully nodded her head in thanks, and took the wine. She didn't savour it like a lady but drank half the glass in a first sip. Centaurs didn't drink in a 'masculine' fashion. Centaurs, of both genders, made the rowdiest of human men feel like they needed to step it up a notch, though if they tried to do what Eilidh had just done with a swift, powerful grace, they'd probably get the wine everywhere. Even the way she held her glass was both careful yet firm and with a grip more suited to a wooden tankard or a drinking horn than glassware.

When the blonde human was given a drink after her and complimented, Eilidh was jealous of her. Not because she'd been complimented by Bast, but because of her ability to not get flustered in the slightest. It must be so nice to be a human female with their comparatively low sex drives.

When Rebecca heard the Minotaur's explanation, her anger disappeared. It was starting to make sense. Those horns would make putting on a turnic, even a loose one, something of a challenge. The woman slowly and deliberately looked Magnus up and down, the color gone from her cheeks. She was clearly serious and focused judging by her facial expression. When she finished, she bowed and smiled. [color=edd902]"Yes, of course. I understand. I'm sorry to trouble you. Let us forget this and enjoy ourselves as we dine."[/color]

When the meal came, Rebecca was handed a drink, and accepted it with a proper, ladylike bow, and gave it a dainty sip. before smiling in a approval, and bowing again at the compliment. [color=edd902]"You flatter me, but I am but a humble servant of my Church, which I have found myself the sole member of, and have decided to pledge to this Guild, for I have realised that this is the side of Grace and Good."[/color]

Church?...And the way she's dressed, and her words were suggesting she had switched sides. It wasn't hard to figure out she used to be a Priestess of the Order. All the clues were there.
