"Another."
The word was said barely above a whisper, but the force behind it left little room for argument from the bartender, even if the man had noticed this was the man's fourth drink. And this man was a Dreadlord, the last thing he needed was some drunk Dreadlord destroying his bar. It had already ruined his business with most people filing out of the dimly lit tavern as soon as the Dreadlord stepped inside.
Apparently, the service was not quick enough for Alistair as the slightly slurred words repeated themselves, "Another."
Another drink was quickly placed in front of Alistair Krixus. He was silent just staring at the drink, he would have loved to be able to think of something else but the only thing holding possession in his mind was the letter neatly folded on the bar next to him.
Alistair had read the letter so many times he felt like he could repeat the words from memory, but what he would give to forget them. He supposed that was why he was drinking. It was rare that Alistair drank himself to intoxication. While it was always fun at the time, the lack of control that followed when he felt his mind sober up unsettled him.
How long had he been here? He had left his home for a walk...one or was it two days ago? His mother and siblings were likely growing concerned, and he also had work to do, but his mind nor his heart could bring him to move.
