Merrill let out a small, muffled moan as the sweet dessert Hawke had left for her melted into her mouth. It was impossibly smooth and soft, with a rich sweet flavor that coated her tongue. She found the shemlen city to be dirty, violent, aggressive, confusing. This might be good enough to forgive that. Never in her life had she tasted something so excessively luxurious. It reminded her of the fancy fabric Isabela had shown her. What was it? Velvet. This was velvety. Was that a shemlen word? It should be. She would have to find Hawke something equally wondrous.
