[Tavern Thread] The Dunn Wright Inn

[WindCrystal]

Amien raises a brow... at his empty drink. It has been a few minutes since he last spoke, leaving things a bit awkward, so he informs Galandra, "I'm going to head to the Pearl for a moment." He leaves his seat and adjusts the comfort of his belt before effortlessly walking through the now highly diminished crowd.

Galandra nods to Amien. "Sure, I'll save you the sit" she places her backpack to cover it.

Dame Morrogrim smiled at Lyrra's amusement. "The healing arts are a noble calling and, I agree, much overlooked. My mother was a gifted healer. We saw many adventurers seeking out her assistance." She set down her cards and lifted her glass in Lyrra's direction. "Here is to those with the therapeutic touch, may you not go unappreciated."

Lyrra blushed slightly and raised her glass towards the woman in acceptance of the toast. After the toast is concluded she says "Ah, but now it is perhaps your turn to tell me about yourself?"

Dame Morrogrim’s eyes mist over slightly as her thoughts drift back to her home and mother. She looks deeply into the glass of burgundy wine as she reminisces.

“As I said, my mother was an accomplished healer. She taught me her profession well, but I did not have her patience. I spent my time roaming the city and consorting with the various social circles that call it home. “ She paused and smiled slightly while taking a sip of wine. “I found that there were ways to act compassionately other than healing wounds. My services have opened doors to the best houses and gave me access to prominent families.”

“My mother was upset that I did not follow in her footsteps, but understood we all have our own paths. I have been traveling by my reputation and recommendations made by my clients. I am presently expected at a family's estate to the north, but I am feeling like I may need a change.”

Amien eventually returns back to the Tavern after some time spent at the Pearl, and makes his way back to the seat that he finds has been marked with a bag placed upon it. He sets the bag on the counter and sits back towards the bar, and asks the tender for another drink.

"Oh, so you're THAT kind of girl." Lyrra says, completely misinterpreting what Dame Morrogrim had said.

By this moment, Galandra had asked for a two slices of white bread with ham, cheese and fresh lettuce, accompanied with some crispy chips in the side. "You gotta try these" she took her backpack from the seat Amien was using so he could sit. "What did you buy?"

 

[Grayn]

Dame Morrogrim cocks her head slightly to the side and narrows her eyes as she stares at Lyrra. Her lips purse tightly. Suddenly, she throws her head back with a peal of laughter, covering her mouth with her hand just as the laughter turns into a slight cackle.

"Oh dear, I think you are a bit mistaken, I thought my services were obvious." She says with a smile, slightly waving her hand over the table in display and wiping a tear from the corner of her eye with the other. "I am an advisor of sorts, a counselor to my clients; sometimes I provide comfort or possibly a confidant. But, I can understand the confusion with a courtesan; we both typically work in back parlors, with the lights dimmed and keep many secrets."
