Yes. I'd like to know why it matters so much to them. Is it merely a ritual, or is there some greater, practical significance?

[Rituals often have immense meaning to those who practice them, but there may be a deeper meaning behind this one — something related to why they've been invited here in the first place. Altaïr nearly falls into rumination out of habit before the somewhat expectant look on the other man's face registers.]

Oh. Did you want to...?

[Dance? With him? Surely that wasn't what he'd meant by it being important.]
