Bill had procured two glasses of.. something. It smelled like cider, but it was smoking and served in goblets that looked like small cauldrons. As he wove his way back through the crowds to find Lavender, Bill eventually located her at a table with a little girl in her lap. He assumed this was the Julie that Lavender was always talking about.
Setting the drinks down on the table, Bill knelt down in front of the girls and smiled. "Hi Julie," he said. "My name is Bill. I have a big problem and I was hoping you could help me with it."
