You were drinking at a pub when a tall, ragged man initiated a conversation with you,

"Hey, mind if I sit beside you? I'm Salem, by the way."

Without waiting for a response, he sat on the stool next to you. He seemed nice, so you talked to him for a while. During the friendly banter, Salem offered to buy you a drink. But, this friendly gesture seemed to have a sinister meaning behind it. He had a warm smile as he placed the glass in front of you.
