It was dusk but since dawn a party had been going on in a broad streed in Arca the capital of Serendipity. Whatever the occasion, it was a happy one. With quality drinks, appetisers, and performances. One of the performers, was Leyla. A young adult in the bloom of her life. She would not earn that much from performing today but she did not mind. She did it for the fun. The release. She was wearing her special green dress with yellow and orange flowers embroided on it, and yellow mesh sleeves.
She was agile. Capable of something named contortion which allowed her to make movements impossible for basicly anyone else. Unless they had trained themselves to do so. But most of her dances involved her playing a silver sideways flute. Around her ankles were silver bands with bells making a soft jingling noise with every step she took.
A performance showing off her contortion was her final act for the day. And when her performance was done those who watched clapped and Leyla bowed deeply before she wished everyone a fine evening and took on the offer of the one whom had invited her to eat some of the lovely food. But not everyone on a party was there to celebrate occasions and her moment of calmness were soon to pass when two men widely grinning stood on each side of her.
''Hello there lassie'' one of them said and took a piece of food. ''Nice flexible body you have. We know something else that is usefull for it too.'' the other added. Before Leyla could comment however one of the attendants took Leyla's hand and pulled her towards him. ''Sorry men. She's mine. Also. Invited people only''
The one who spoke spat on the ground. ''Fine. We were just leaving anyway.'' he said grumpily and left with his buddy
''Thank you Olaffson'' Leyla said and sighed deeply. ''Please. Leyla. Its Denzel.'' he said with a chuckle and gave his empty glass to a servant. ''A final dance with me? The party will end soon'' he said and offered his hand which Leyla took.
