panel 216:

Garrin hasn't given proper tavern behavior any thought, yet feels compelled to say what he knows 'well first you should treat the staff with respect and always be polite.'

'I would never-' Reefa seems annoyed at first before cracking a smile, assuming the comment was a joke 'Oh to suggest such a thing! I'm being serious Garrin I could really use your help.'

Garrin changes his approach 'What sort of drinks do you like?'

The princess is delighted to share 'well if I'm feeling indulgent I adore a ninety-three starshine stirred with two doses of crystal firewater, regarding the firewater I prefer Basetian Fort, but I'll settle for Chulmundt heater since I've heard that's more common in southern cities.'
Garrin shakes his head and sighs 'That sort of request might draw a lot of attention, you want to fit in, not stand out.'

Reefa frowns at this 'Fit in?, don't stand out? Are you making sport of me? I am not enjoying this type of conversation.'

Reefa thinks she's being teased, and is upset

'I've tried my very best to blend in, I know I have failed miserably in that task but you'd do no better posing as a king.' Reefa pouts

Garrin has to concede that the princess' large wings and bright scales are exceedingly recognizable, she'll be known wherever she goes.
as if to illustrate the point the bridge guards bow at her approach 'Welcome to Herrone your highness, we are at your service'
Reefa give a nod in response 'no further service is required. your vigil over this fine city is all I ask of you.'

As Garrin and Reefa pass through the gate Reefa remains silent.
