[QUOTE="Lazlow, post: 2665532, member: 24242"] Romanna, listening intently to your story, looks up with a start as you open the door to the inn. She thanks you and walks inside, where a warm fire burns away lazily in a large, central pit, around which are placed tables and chairs. To your left is a short bar with a large bearded man behind it. He looks up from the ledger he is studying and nods at you, then with a double-take, looks at you a bit more intently and says, [COLOR=DarkRed]"Hello there. Sorry for the look, I just didn't expect to see any strangers. What can I get for you?"[/COLOR] Romanna steps up. [COLOR=Purple]"Thank you sir. I suppose some breakfast would be in order,"[/COLOR] she says, almost surprising herself as she realizes neither of you have eaten yet today. [COLOR=Purple]"But before that, I am looking for some companions of mine. We were to meet here last night, but I was delayed by the storm. They would have rented rooms - there were three of them, a Dwarf, a man, and a woman, all dressed similarly to myself."[/COLOR] The innkeeper looks at her quizically. [COLOR=DarkRed]"Well, lass, I did indeed see your companions last night, I believe. The Dwarf, red hair and beard? And the woman, short blonde hair?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=Purple]"Yes, and the man looks very similar to me. My brother."[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"Aye, that he did, that he did. Aye, lass, they were here last night but they didna rent any rooms. Had a meal, but then left with another man. Didn't see them after that."[/COLOR] Romanna's brow furrows in confusion, and she looks at you helplessly for a moment. Presently she composes herself and speaks. [COLOR=Purple]"I... I don't understand. Did they leave a message for me? Do you know who it was that they left with?"[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]"No, I'm sorry. No message. And I didn't get a look at the gentleman, I only saw him through the door of the kitchen, there. I'm sorry."[/COLOR] He waited a moment, then said, a bit awkwardly, [COLOR=DarkRed]"Well... How about that breakfast, then? Our spiced porridge is the best in the Isles, and sure to warm you up on such a dismal day."[/COLOR] Romanna, lost in thought, looks around her, then again gives you that helpless look. [/QUOTE]
