[QUOTE="arwink, post: 566802, member: 2292"] [I]Wednesday, August 23rd, 508 AF, Continued [/I] The lower level of the Bell and Clapper is all ale-room, it's walls laden with flickering candlabra, and a collection of trophies and artifacts with an adventuring theme. A large axe hungs prominantly over the bar, alongside a shield and several smaller weapons. A glass case has been pushed against the far wall, with several scraps of parchment and daggers laid out on display alongside an open book. Halgo's gleaming eyes spot the book almost instantly, and he looks up at Geoffery with an eager expression. "I'll get the rooms," Geoffery sighs. "Go read." The barkeep is a tall half-elf, his blond hair thinning. He's serving some locals on the far end of the bar, but it doesn't take him long to rush to Geoffery's service. "Evenin," he says. "The names Tokket. Welcome to the Bell and Clapper. What can I do fer ye?" Geoffery looks in the bag of gold Y'Dey gave him for expenses. The majority of it's still there. "I'd like room for four, some ale, and perhaps something as a late supper if you've got it. We've got a wagon and two horses in your stables as well" Tokket nods, then quickly scans the companions at Geoffery's side. "It'll be five silver for a meal and bed for three of ye, and I'll include the kobold in the stables with yer horses." Yip snarls slightly at this, his nostrils flaring and ears flattening against his head. "The kobold is tame, civilised," Geoffery assures Tokket. "We'd prefer to keep him inside with us." Halgo, on the far end of the sparsly populated tap-room, hears toe comment and pauses in his reading. "It's not a kobold," he yells. "It's my intelligent, bipedal familiar." Neither arguement seems to sway the half-elf. "It ain't stayin in my inn," Tokket says bluntly. "I run a worthwhile establishment, the best in town. I ain't letting no stinkin kobold ruin that reputation. Yer lucky I'm letting yer orcish friend stay." Yip growls again, and Geoffery puts a warning arm on the small monks shoulder to stop him from leaping. "We'll be willing to pay extra for the kobold to sleep inside," he sighs. "How much?" Tokket scowls at Yip, doing the calculations in his head. "Eight silver," he says finally, "And ye don't let yer pet go wandering unsupervised." Geoffery agrees, then sends Blarth and Yip to a shadowed table with orders to avoid drawing attention. Both complain quietly as they cross the room. Meanwhile, Halgo joins them with his eyes shinning. "Well," he says, "Seems Bellhold was more interesting than we were told..." [/QUOTE]
