The door behind Kharl opened, and the servingwoman appeared with two crystal beakers of dark ale that she set quickly before the men, then departed.

Kharl looked down at the half-empty crystal beaker.

After seating himself, Kharl filled the crystal beaker with the lager, then handed the pitcher to Demyst.

Whetorak waited as the serving girl set a pale crimson crystal beaker before Kharl and a goblet of the same crystal before him.

The old man patted his shoulder reassuringly, then offered him a crystal beaker filled with foaming red liquid.

Once or twice, as he moved, the extraordinary armor he wore gleamed; then I saw it as one sees a crystal beaker immersed in clear water.

She blushed again at the obviousness and pushed away the crystal beaker of dark and bubbling liquid that had been set before her, but he firmly slid it back.

The Red Priest took a vessel of wine from a table and filled crystal beakers.

The Champagne, in a crystal beaker filled with ice, sits like a centerpiece on the table.

Then, with a little shudder, she sent the crystal beaker crashing across the floor and touched the controls of her machine.
