She certainly was not, as well, prepared for such an outward display of a greeting, or continued recognition.
The hand upon her shoulder may have come harder than intended. It could have also been the sudden chill of feeling cold steel through the thin cloth of her dress. Coatleque started in surprise and turned to the Roe with wide eyes.
"Oh, um... yes. Do I know you?"
She felt herself backing into the side railing wishing desperately that she could fly away herself as the crowd continued to grow.
