Two Eyes Cenote I do not care to serve you with good tidings on my tongue

though meseba is aware of what custom dictates there is a moment of assessment that leaves a small delay. a small contemplation of why the coyote that is the small man's servant hasn't eaten him yet. and then, there was his accent, taking meseba a small while to sort through. i am meseba and this is safiya, we welcome you. though he does not step aside as she stays close behind him, a glimpse over his shoulder at her showing him that she peers from behind his leg.

two fellahin are quickly summoned; one is sent off to find and inform @Eset of gucci's arrival and the other instructed to bring meats and wine for the neb, which is laid out before him in a small spread.

how was your trip? it is filler conversation, made simply to keep it going until eset arrived. the neb's business here was not meseba's and thus he avoids asking those questions, though he is curious as to whether it was a social visit or one of more importance.
