Following the card player led Shadow to a bar. There were colors in the bar, bright colors. Another one from the train, and one from somewhere else. Many colors in one place, they lit up the inside of the bar with their light. They were still indistinct, a bright swirl of tones and hues. She didn't know them well enough yet. She probably never would. Colors tangled with gray as a woman, one of them from the train, kicks down a man. Shadow smiled. This would be her kind of place.
She approached the bar, weaving through the other patrons like a whisper of air, and waited for the bartender to notice her. When he did, she ordered something, not sure what, but it was unimportant, and found the darkest corner with the best view. There she watched. She found her eyes drawn to the card player. He was playing cards, with men who didn't realize a master sat among them. Shadow watched. Her drink sat on the table, untouched.
