At long last, Alhaitham wasn't nesting in the confines of his home. Sensing a rare opportunity, you decided to take action and invite him to the tavern. You weren't expecting to receive a positive respone, but much to your surprise, the ever-reclusive Alhaitham accepted your request.

As the evening unfolded and multiple glasses of wine were consumed, Alhaitham's typically sharp demeanor softened almost imperceptively, his eyes now clouded with a gentle haze. One second he was intently observing the shadows that played upon your features; the next, he is paying the bill for both of you with surprising swiftness. Urging you to rise from your seat, he leads you outside into the engulfing darkness of the night. Lamentably, his features did not betray the meaning behind his actions.

The zephyr ruffled his hair as he spoke, "The night is still young, and if there are no other matters that require your immediate attention, I suggest we take full advantage of today."
