The hearthfires of two stone fireplaces provide a welcome glow to the Seven Silvers taproom, and a ward against the chill winds which blow briskly outside. It is the the 3rd of Neth, and the evening before the big day to follow...the launch of the Quest of the Everflame. Tonight, Mariana Silvers has been given the evening off from her usual duties at the Seven Silvers in order to relax and make preparations for her departure on the morrow. Asina, scurrying by with a tray full of dirty mugs and plates, sticks her tongue out at her elder sister in mock resentment.
From his stool on the other side of the bar, Short Change catches Mariana's eye and gives her a wink and a smile. Over the din of the crowded room, the halfling calls out, "Hey now, don't look so nervous lass, you'll be just fine. You'll be in good company, what with that brickhouse of a blacksmith's apprentice, Holgast's pointy-eared pupil, and of course, your fire-hearted Corus. And, after all, it's not like you haven't picked up a trick or two of your own from somewhere or t'other. Mayor Uptal even hinted there might be a fifth person on your little trek, did he not? You've nothing to worry about, except p'rhaps a cold dinner if the rest don't get here soon." A call for another round at the bar diverts Short Change's attention, leaving Mariana to watch the door and wait for her friends and companions to arrive.
OOC: Alright, here we go. This meeting in the tavern is a chance for the fledgling heroes to get to know one another a bit better, and get some role-playing in before the sending-off ceremonies of the next day.
