She starts to nod, then seems to hedge on it.

"It...s-sort of? I...Devigny didn't...buy me," It's a hard thing to talk about, even to someone who saw something very much like what really happened. She sighs and turns, walking back to where she'd been when Colin arrived, and sitting on the ground. There's a bench, of course, but she'd rather sit in front of it, on the grass, than on something hard and unforgiving.

"I was unlucky enough to get nabbed by the wrong guards for stealing and they took me to him instead of arresting me. I only ever saw the foyer and that room, and he..." Her face reflects the disgust she feels, the churning of her stomach and she fetches up her nearly-spent joint again and takes a drag. Around a lungful of smoke, she continues: "He wanted to test out the goods first. Dumped me at The Maiden Tower after." A brothel, where she was probably meant to stay, locked up where she couldn't implicate him in anything if she had the gall to try. But she was more trouble than she was worth, and nobody would care about an elf being used and discarded when the alternative is trying a wealthy resident in Hightown.
