"No," Rath replied, recoiling. "I don't know how to do any of that sort of dancing and whatever else you do. That's for your lot."

"And your lot if you win the tournament," Tress snapped. "We're not all evil and lazy and useless. You spend your nights drinking at the bar. We have parties. It's not that much different. But fine, forget it, we can do something else." He bent and picked up the satchel that had been resting against his legs and swung it over his shoulder, face expressionless save for the tightness around his mouth. He didn't quite look at Rath as they started walking. "What would you like to do? We could grab a bite to eat at a pub or rent a room for the night and eat in."

Rath tamped down on his racing nerves. If he could yell at the Master of the Treasury on stage in front of everyone then he could suffer through a party for a few hours. "Well, we're going to need to rent a room anyway, because I'm not changing my clothes here on the street."
