I was judged well enough to walk and followed them down the bathhouse.
They didn’t wantin the water and leftin their alcove. I found a deck of cards and played what I considered a gof solitaire.
I kept my head down, but there were a steady stream of men that walked by appraising me. Several commented amongst themselves what they would bid if Master Damien was agreeable. The scar was present, but it would not overly detract from my use they believed.
