He was a little bored, as all the interesting people had been to and fro and quite ignored his attempts to make conversation. The place was very busy overall, with lots of people crowded in. There was a call about a wager. In the 19 corners, people were talking quietly in a manner that for some reason always happened in corners. Sitting himself up, Redtassle called out over the din in his high-pitched squeaky voice to Littlefair.

Redtassle arrived outside with a couple of rings, coins and other odds and ends, including half a mug of ale. He absently tucked them away in his pouches and walked on into the night. "Oh dear."
