Junyou toasts, but instead of drinking immediately, he wafts the liquor in his cup and eyes it curiously. He sips gingerly, rolling the liquid around in his mouth, tasting it. He looks up at Dewang in amazement. "So it is true, you are a sorcerer. What manner of enchantment is this? Can you summon victuals from thin air, or merely transform that which already is?"

Dewang laughs.

"You are right to be suspicious. That is still tea you are drinking right now. With a little more preparation, of course, it could truly be liquor - but it is only your senses which are deceived. The senses are very easily fooled, especially when you show people what they desire to see."

Junyou is intrigued and can hardly contain himself from questioning Dewang further. "Are you capable of greater illusions? Can you summon mists? Conceal men or cause them to appear where they are not?"

He turns his head and barks at a passing courtesan-waitress. "Girl, wine!"

He looks back at Dewang and a smile creeps across his lips, eyes scanning the quartermaster in more than a few new lights. "I think we can do great things together, you and I".

Dewang nods slowly and holds Junyou's gaze.

"Forget whores, Zibing...or don't for the time being, they're quite the collection here" he says while the courtesan is still above them pouring their wine. "Forget fortunes, how about lands?"

Dewang sits back and sips his wine slowly, relishing the taste.

"In the end, all those things are illusions too. It is a matter of degree."

He finishes with a gulp and laughs.

"At least, that's what the old monks used to say. They did drone on so."

Junyou's eyes scan over Dewang's features, sipping his wine thoughtfully. He strokes his moustache and a few wheels begin to turn in his head. "Oh speaking of appearances, I was wondering if I could enlist your aid this evening, Quartermaster. Captain Dang has decided to inspect my squad tomorrow, on quite short notice, and their uniforms...well, they get quite lived in as part of their particular branch of service. Could you perhaps accompany me to the armory and vouch for my borrowing a few cuirasses?"

The wine is not yet creating the usual pleasant fog, nor even the illusion of one, in Dewang's head. The last thing he would like is to return to his official work, but Junyou's request is reasonable and he would not like the man to get a dressing-down from Captain Dang.

"By all means, Commander. We shall unfortunately have to leave this dinner early, then, or we won't be there before it gets completely dark."

"Regrettably so. Zibing I doubt this outing would be of much interest to you, and besides it would probably be best if we do not all appear in public together at once, now that we are all of the same enterprise. Put the bill on my tab." he says before downing the rest of his wine. He rises. "Shall we?"

Dewang picks up as much food as he can reasonably walk out with and accompanies Junyou outside.

As they pass through the doorway , Junyou says "I hope you don't mind if we stop by my townhouse on the way, this garb is rather more expensive than a visit to the barracks warrants, so I'd like to change into my uniform. That way you could also finish eating in a sedentary manner."
