He handed over 9 \glsentrylongpl{sp} with the head of \iftoggle{aif}{Dalius Rex}{an ancient king}, without any wear or tarnish.
She took her change, and looked again around the bar.
They were in here somewhere\ldots

Soon after he mentioned to the rest,
``I think we may have been drugged, and not in the way we paid for.''
