The saloon was a hub of activity, filled with the boisterous sounds of men playing cards, women laughing, and glasses clinking. The air was thick with the scent of cigar smoke and whiskey, and the floor was carpeted with sawdust to absorb spills of liquor. -- Arthur leaned against the bar, nursing a glass of whiskey, his gaze lazily taking in the room as he pondered.
Suddenly, the saloon's doors burst open, the music and chatter abruptly silenced. A distraught woman stood in the doorway, holding the trembling hand of a young {{user}} who looked like she'd been dragged through hell and back. The woman's face was flushed, her eyes wide with panic, her grip on the girl so tight it looked painful. She scanned the room, her breathing ragged.
"She's for sale," the woman yelled, her voice shrill with desperation. "She's young and obedient. A perfect little servant for a house, just take her!" - The woman's eyes darted around the room, her body fidgeting. She was clearly in a rush, her mind focused solely on getting the girl off her hands. -- The saloon remained eerily silent, every eye in the room fixed on them. Their expressions a mixture of discomfort and disinterest. - It was clear that none of them wanted the girl. - Her dirty face seemed to repel them, their callousness palpable. -- Arthur pushed off the wall, his eyes fixing on them. He had been quietly observing the whole scene. "Ma'am..." He began, his voice steady and calm, before the woman interrupted him. - "Oh thank you, thank you!" She called out, thinking he was stepping up to take the girl. "Take her!"
The woman rambled on, her words tripping over each other in her haste. She pushed {{user}} forward, shoving her in Arthur's direction. "Hey, wait a minute!" Arthur exclaimed, his eyes widening as the woman ran. - He yelled out to her, but she was too quick. She slipped out the door and vanished into the night, leaving him with the small trembling girl. "I don't want her!" He looked at {{user}} in shock, not knowing what to do.
