Euphraxia had never ever before been in this district of town. Actually, she didn't even know it existed until just now. It was dark and kind of scary...All the women on the street kept eying her as if she were a hunk of meat. It as unsettling and she wanted to hurry and find the man soon.
She sensed his presence inside of what appeared to be a tavern. It was decorated lavishly in different pinks and purples and looked quite feminine. She, and the rest of the group, entered. Euphraxia had not been expecting to see a bar full of just men when she walked in. Completely confused, she hesitated.
"So, as I was saying, molasses, you wanna go back to my place~?" Nyx waggled his eyebrows suggestively to the man he sat next to. Oh Gosh was the man he sat next to a beauty. A real score, if he could bed him. He grinned, showing his perfectly straight teeth. Well, except his abnormally sharp canines. He just hoped no one notices those. "Well, how about it...?"
Suddenly, the bar grew silent. Nyx turned to look at the door, where a large group of people stood. Everyone looked out of place, and there was something that screamed in the back of his head. They didn't belong here.
In a matter of seconds, panic ensued. Men were flocking to the back door of the bar, attempting to trample each other in an effort to leave. Obviously, they thought that it was the government coming to crack down on them. However, Nyx was not so sure. While most of the people appeared to be a noble of some sort, not everyone looked so well off. He leaned back in his chair, the only calm person in a bar of fleeing gay men.
As the scene unfolded, Euphraxia just looked confused. Why was everyone running? She didn't understand...
"U-uhm, excuse me..." She began awkwardly. "Are you Nyx?"
Suddenly, Nyx didn't feel so confident in his ability to distinguish between government and non. "Who wants to know?" He asked, trying to sound suave. He succeeded, for the most part.
"You have a royal summons."
"A court order?!" He exclaimed, jumping to his feet.
"No!" Euphraxia nearly screamed. "No, no! Please don't run! It's not a court order!"
The dark skinned man paused. "Oh. What is it?"
"A journey summons." She replied calmly. "The kingdom needs you for a mission."
Nyx rose an eyebrow. "The kingdom knows I exist and they aren't trying to kill me? Wow. Color me shocked." He looked pleased, for some reason Euphraxia was incredibly unawares of.
"Well, hey, I'm Nyx, then." He grinned, reaching out to shake her hand. "If you ever need some help in the romance department you should come see me."
He flirtatiously licked his lips, winking at her.
