[QUOTE="Scotley, post: 5817021, member: 11520"] Wik's temper flared at the pointed remark about the bathing facilities, but cooled just as quickly. [I]How long had it been since his last bath?[/I] There was the night he was caught out in the rain a week or so ago. But a real bath? Weeks? He had been living wild on the edge of civilization for so long such a thing had stopped being a part of his life. He looked at a the mirror. His hair and beard were a tangled mess. Mirrors weren't readily available in the wilderness either. [I]Would it be too forward to ask for his clothes to be washed and mended as well as the services of a barber?[/I] Putting down his gear in the room Wik set out to find a servant. Spotting a lad carrying an armload of firewood he approached. [COLOR="Green"]"Lad, would it be possible to get a barber sent to my room or is there a place here in the castle where I can find one? Also, I could use the services of a laundress."[/COLOR] He reached for a silver piece in his pouch unconsciously. Then paused, [I]was a servant in a castle likely to expect a tip. Certainly the lads in the rural inns always did, but was this different? Damn, adjusting to civilization was going to be a challenge.[/I] He watched the lad closely for any sign he expected a coin for his troubles. [/QUOTE]
