One of the greatest pains (in a 'well, that's a relief' sort of way) for any patron with a tendency towards falling long distances is suddenly falling through the door. Which is what happens to this particular new person.

He goes tumbling through the door, grabbing onto the floor and then backflipping off it and swinging from rafter to rafter, before gravity rather harshly reasserts itself and he realises that the direction he was moving in has changed.

He hangs there for a moment, looking a bit foolish, and then drops to the ground, looking very confused. Not just because of the strange disorientating trick that the door played on him, but also because he came from a tomb, and bars in tombs are ... not unheard of, but still strange.

"A tomb," chirpily.

"Were you looking for something there?"

"Gold."

"Ah, did you find any?"

"The door didn't give me much of a chance."

"Well, if you can see your door then you could just go back and look."

"I can't," immediately.

"Ah, then clearly you need to rest. When did you last eat?"

"Earlier today."

"Then it wouldn't hurt you to have more, a growing man like yourself. Tell me about yourself. Is there a woman waiting for you outside that tomb?"

"Not waiting for me, but I'll find somebody."

"Oh I know you will. If it were Spring, I'd promise you an interesting night if you could keep up."

Headtilt. "What'll happen in Spring?"

"I just look younger."

Pause.

"Oh, okay."

"I'm a goddess, dear."

"... Of course. Don't worry, that's not the oddest thing I've seen today."

"What's the oddest thing?"

"A tentacle creature."

"Ah, was it friendly?"

"Oh, yes."

"Good, Milliways can be a charming place."

"So I'm finding."

"So tell me more about yourself."

"What's there to tell? I put old gold to good use."
