Fortunately, Ellyra didn’t share the same romantic ideals that SoHalia held. Ellyra could compartmentalize sex and romance into two different spots and thus made a wonderful brothel-goer. But her friend, no, she wasn’t one to frequent such establishments.
Ellyra’s brows drew together with concern. Whatever caused the owl to be in such a place, drowning herself the way she was, certainly must be bad. She imagined that other world leaders got drunk in the privacy of their home or office, rather than outright in public with a scrutinizing eye.
But Ellyra wasn’t one to judge, but she remembered the fear and grief on Sohalia’s face the last time she had found her after a terrible circumstance had happened. So she swallowed herself down, and steeled herself with the soul of her shift, and nodded. ”Sounds like we’re doing the same thing.” She lied. ”Let’s do it together.” and she lifted her glass to clink against Sohalia’s in cheers, and then took a drink.
