If he is drinking more then a little bit and on a good night he may recount his tale of terror.  It seems that one winter night the drink had gotten to the portly man and the songs had gone later then his wife Madga would have liked.  Well when he woke up to make the long trek home he felt that he wasn't alone in the room.  He looked around and there was a sight that would chill the blood.  A cold wind swept the room (not to supprising it was winter after all) and the hair stood up on the back of his neck.  There was a sharp featured man glaring at him from across the common room.  He didn't move or say a word but his cold be blinking eyes seemed to bore a hole in to him.  Since that time the old man has gone home early but still brings the best of his fall batch to sell to the inn.  Old Tarl doen't like him to talk to about his little encounter but by now a local bard has taken up the story and it has become famous.  Mort of course made sure that the young story teller change the names and locations to protect Tarl's business but anyone that hears the story and knows Mort will immediatly recognise the source.  Well guys I hope this matches up with what you were after and is of the same caliber as the rest of the submissions for this little exercise.  Please feel free to drop me a line and tell me what you think.</blockquote>
