A few days ago, it used to overflow with customers, from local diners to travelers, chatting, laughing, and feasting on her delicious food. 

"Don't be." Thalia looked at the man who had given her a chance to set up her place in his building. "This is not your fault. Truthfully, I should be thankful to you."
