[QUOTE="Lazlow, post: 2283403, member: 24242"] [b]Muirna meets another stranger[/b] At this, a severe little balding man wearing thick spectacles and heavy brown robes rolls his eyes, tosses up his hands, pushes his plate of food away from him in disgust, and quickly exits the tavern, giving you a cold look and muttering under his breath. OOC: Um... You sure about that? The parents might get a bit upset... ;) Few patrons bother to turn and look at you, but those who do simply shrug and turn back to draining their mugs. You think you hear someone say something like, "When it rains, it pours..." The Dwarven barmaid bustles up to you and starts to say something but stops short as you begin to talk: “[COLOR=Plum]Eh, hello there. Would you happen to have some warm soup or something like that? Nothing too strong, my stomach couldn’t take that. Perhaps a light leak soup? But nothing with cream, that would keep me up all night with cramps. Hmm, perhaps a chicken soup would be good? Well, I would think that would depend on the chickens. And then some bread. And maybe a little bit of venison if you have it. Oh, yes, and a wine, but nothing too sweet, and not that swill you sell the traders passing through.
