[QUOTE="toasterferret, post: 5625169, member: 100541"] As each of you trickle into the tavern, you see a somewhat attractive woman, dressed in rather rough clothing, settling one of the tables as if for dinner. The faint clinking of chain can be heard from under her clothes as she works. The rest of the tavern appears deserted, as if it has been closed for some time prior to this meeting. As you enter, the woman turns and says [COLOR="SeaGreen"]"Thank you for coming, my name is Janiven. Please have a seat and join me for some dinner. Your questions will be answered after we eat. Don't worry, we wont be here after dark by any rate."[/COLOR] Without waiting for a response, she sits down herself at the head of the table and begins to ladle out some thick stew from a pot into her bowl. Every few minutes you can see her eyes glance to the windows and door. After a quiet dinner of what appears to be venison stew, Janiven addresses the group.[COLOR="SeaGreen"] “Again, thank you for agreeing to meet with me here. I have chosen each of you for a singular reason—everyone here, myself included, has suffered, whether we realize it or not. I have lived in Westcrown my whole life, and although I love this city, I must admit, as must you, that despite our peace and prosperity, we continue to suffer.
