[Shadowheart falls into the rhythm with surprising ease, her feet starting to recall a pattern that her mind can't. Perhaps she has had occasion to dance before. Something stirs in the back of her mind: not any particular memory, merely a feeling of what it was like to be in a place like this, granted a rare opportunity to pretend to be anybody but Shadowheart for a little while, knowing she mustn't return empty handed yet desperate to lose herself in another life before focusing on the mission at hand.
She always did like pretending to be somebody else, she remembers.]
I need to thank you as well. I didn't expect to enjoy myself tonight, but I've been pleasantly surprised, thanks to you. [For a little while, she might just be able to pretend she isn't trapped here in Etraya, that she's some Baldurian aristocrat dancing without a care in the world.]
