Two Italian women - one in her thirties, curvy and extroverted, the other a teenager, shy and a little withdrawn - were perusing the market when the boy arrived.

Now, it wasn't that they had strictly been stalking Ender, but Dorabella Toscano did make it her business to know when he turned up and who he was with. She whispered something to Alessandra and perked up, pasting a smile on her face and ever so subtly taking a few steps towards the boy.

"Are you finding everything all right?" she asked, brightly.

"So far," Ben replied a little cautiously. "Do you have recommendations for a good place for snacks?"

"There's a stand with Greek delicacies about fifty meters from here," Dorabella replied, still smiling. "By the look on your face I assume you're new, boy."

"You know everyone by face?" Ben replied, looking a little surprised.
