Before the crowd of ladies grew any larger, Leech found an opening and slipped away.
He straightened his clothes, thinking, 'I'm starting to feel like some celebrity stylist. It seems that no matter what world you're in, beauty and haircare are the best ways to find common ground with women.'
If he kept talking, he was afraid he'd blurt out something like, 'Miss, your split ends are so severe! You should try our Porcupine Brand shampoo. It pains me to even look at them.'
After he left, the ladies' conversation still revolved around Leech. They were especially excited about his promise of more unique Porcupine Brand products in the future.
They loved the grand vision Leech painted for them.
Most of the lords and nobles of the East Gorge had come to Roaring Castle.
Leech didn't know most of the people there, but he could guess their identities by looking at their family crests.
"Leech!"
"Uncle." Leech walked over to greet him. It wasn't surprising to run into Lewis here.
