*Moiraine comes downstairs from her room. A very close observer might notice that although she looks calm, as always, she appears to be deep in thought.*

*She accepts tea, fruit, and bread from the bar, then takes a seat at a table. Once there, she takes a small book from her belt pouch and begins to look through it.*

Peter, who is staggering through the bar, looks bad. He is not drunk--rather, he seems too sick and exhausted to see where he is going, and he is continually bumping into chairs, tables and people. His face is haggard and drawn, his mouth tense, and there is something dark and vicious swimming in the depths of his eyes.

A chair sticking out from a table proves to be his downfall. He collides with it, goes reeling, trips over his own feet, and slams into the table that Moiraine is sitting at. For a moment, his expression is terrified, but this is immediately swept away by a look of enraged hatred.

*Moiraine looks up at Peter, serenely, then her eyes widen and several expressions flicker across her face, resolving into a look of calm determination.*

Peter. You are not well. Please, sit down before you fall.

*looks at Peter as Moiraine greets him*

Are you ok sir?

Peter takes several deep breaths. "I'm fine," he says in a weak but recognisable voice, knowing it is anything but the truth. "Really. Just lost my balance. I'm f-"

He breaks off, as the darkness within him chooses that moment to attack again.

He surfaces again, minutes or perhaps hours later, sweating and shivering cold, and with the feeling that he has just lost another battle, as he has lost so many.

He staggers to a chair, and buries his aching head in his hands.

*walks over and says quietly*

Mind some company?

*Moiraine is watching Peter with a look of grave concern.*

Dionysus. It is good to see you again.
