I'm about to head for the hedge witch's table—witches tend to be less condescending than humans; although to be fair, everyone tends to be less condescending than humans—when the out-of-place nobleman waves at me.

"Miss!" He half stands up, knocking into the table. "Uh, miss? Miss!"

The hedge witch fiddles with a string on her skirt. She doesn't notice me or look at all in a hurry, whereas the human noble sits back down only to half stand up again, this time with enough vigor that he knocks the table so hard it starts to tip.

Okay. Fine.

The noble is just too darn persistent. Better serve him before he flips the table over -- head to NOBLE: Spiced Orange Hope.
