"Why do you look so down?" Judith turned and looked at the man who had spoken to her. She smiled weakly though before she could speak he took her hand and began to walk towards the already dancing villagers. "Don't tell me that you're fine when you clearly aren't. Come and dance with me a little bit?" he stuttered, he smiled weakly at her hoping that she would say yes. Judith looked at him a bit confused by his sudden behaviour before she could speak she felt herself being pulled close to him. When she breathed in she smelled a familiar scent, alcohol. It was almost amazing how much it could change someone. "Fine," she mumbled under her breath she allowed him to place his hands around her waist and she placed her own on his shoulders. "What has gotten into you?" she asked him, Judith laughed nervously. "I don't know," he replied he still stuttered his words as he always did. "Though I have never noticed how pretty you are until now." Judith looked at him alarmed by his response. "Don't say such things, Kane!" she hissed then looked away from him. "I'm sorry," his ears dropped and he laughed nervously.

Bryon lifted himself from his chair and brought himself to stand in front of Vyndria. He reached out his hand and smiled warmly at her. "Will you dance with me?" he asked, he laughed nervously wondering if she thought he was behaving oddly. Though he wasn't trying to be romantic, he was being only friendly. When he felt her hand in his he helped her stand from her seat and brought her over to the villagers who were dancing. Bryon placed his hand on her waist and held her other above. "I have not danced for a while, forgive me if I am reckless." he laughed. He twirled with her though he kept his distance not wanting to upset her.

When it came time to switch partners Judith tried to escape the dancing villagers though she was quickly brought into the arms of another man. She sighed a little, though as she went to tell him that she no longer wished to dance she bit her tongue. Bryon smiled as her, with her he brought her close, he held her gently. Kane had taken the queen, he seemed much more nervous dancing with her. Judith accepted Bryon's embrace, she wouldn't reject him on such a night. Though for some odd reason she felt as if she should have. The way she held him was odd, it felt different.
