Vanelee had followed Matt into a massive dining hall a number of yards from the courtyard. Vanelee surveyed the hall with his warm grey eyes, noting that there were nearly fifty different warriors occupying an extremely long table, which was covered with heaps of food. The food ranged from fresh fruit to racks of turkey legs to cooked boars. Vanelee's mouth watered.
Approaching the table timidly, the young elven warrior took a seat at the very end of the table on a bench tha had been placed there. Looking down at all the food, Vanelee took up a small vine of grapes, and began eating them one at a time, savoring their sweet taste. It had been such a long time that he had a full meal, he could hardly believe this much food could be in one place.
Finishing his grapes, Vanelee reached under the arms of his neighboring warrior and grabbed a turkey leg. As he reached for the turkey leg he noticed one of the warriors had just passed out after having to much ale, leaving an entire plate of food on the table. Vanelee shook his head, cursing the man for wasting the food. However, when he looked back at the man, while returning the turkey leg to his plate, he saw that all the food had vanished, except for a lone turkey leg.
'What in the world?" the elf wondered, as he again looked back at the plate, making sure that his hunger wasn't playing tricks on his eyes. This time there was no food left, but Vanelee caught a glimpse of a small hand retreating underneath the table, the source of the dissapearance. Exchanging glances with Matt, who had just saw the hand to, and become alert. Vanelee dropped his head under the table to investigate.
Upon doing this, he exchanged gazes with a small green eyes girl, wearing an oversized green cloak, devouring the vanished turkey leg. He also saw Matt had decided to investigate to, and chose to remain quiet and let Matt talk to the young girl.
