She Was Just At the Wrong Place At The Wrong Time
The slave girls that had been at the bar backed away in fear and the bartender girl that served us had also moved away from us. The only person who had not moved away was Des who was still tied up in her chair.
At first I thought the bartender was also in cahoots with Tala but the look of fear and surprise on her face told me that she was not.
I frowned at the woman, "What are you trying to do here?"
She smiled at me, "Seems like you are new around these parts. A tourist perhaps? You've wandered into the part of the exhibition that you should not have, little lady."
"What are you talking about?"
"Well~ Over here, the area is reserved for a much more specific group of clientele and I can tell from a glance that none of you are part of it."
"I thought there weren't any restrictions like this?"
"On the surface, yes. But there's unwritten rules that everyone has to follow, which is why you are in this predicament right now."
