Eye contact with Warren achieved and to Oak's mind, a message had passed between the two men briefly which prompted the doctor to approach the three and he was truly glad that he did. For as he drew nearer, he clearly heard John's voice questioning something.Â
Oak was not privy to the conversation at hand, but he had a sense that there was great weight to the three who were talking and with that in mind, coupled with the documents in hand, he chose to greet the three men. And why not? He knew two of them. "This appears to be the popular gathering place for good drink and better companions." He began by way of announcing himself, though instead of glancing at Warren or the unknown; he settled his eyes on John and asked HIM the question. "Mind if I join you? It seems to be the right time for a drink, but not the time for the Quicksand's noise."
As if to explain why, he held up the stack of parchment in his large hand and smiled somberly. "Casualty reports."

What a colossal waste of time and energy.
