It took the sorceress a some moments, but she manages to dig through the dwarf’s muddy accent enough to achieve basic comprehension. His surly disposition is surely off-putting not only to herself as evident by the obvious tension. However Rashana maintains a civil and gracious outward appearance to hide her own misgivings. At least he said “please” to the barkeep.
“I have no obligations to fulfill in this town so please consider me ready to depart when it is deemed necessary.”, she announces to her new-found associates, “But the longer we tarry, the less chance we have to find the children alive. We should leave soon.” All of her belongings resided upstairs ready to be retrieved at a moments notice. Oddly, her father had left behind a few weapons of which she had rudimentary training in event that the trade caravan was attacked. Such an occasion happened so rarely.
She turns to regard the half-orc and bows courteously to him. Her head is cocked to the side so as not to look the man in the eye. Despite his heritage, he seems genuinely concerned for the safety and well-being of these children which speaks volumes for his character. “It is most fortunate that you arrived when you did. Thank you. With your help, I have faith that we shall find them. My apologies, but I did not catch your name earlier?”, she formally greets and inquires of him.

"Who me? I'm Kelset. If you got faith, then we'll get along fine. Kord willing, we might find them kids alive but it's been a long time. I'll get my stuff so I'm ready," he replies. Kelset turns and walks out without further conversation, ignoring the comment of the bossy elf about needing rescue.
After gathering the rest of his gear, he returns to the Inn.

As the others prepare to climb down, Finlil comes sprinting back, Grey at his side. "Sorry. And don't call Grey a hare again, she is only... cautios.
Where is the woman we had met?" Finlil asks the others.
ooc: Sorry, I'm back

Kael watches the orc hurry off without ceremony, his words to Rashana seemed cold. When the orc exits the inn, Kael turns to face the bar, alongside the dwarf and the girl. "Keep your coin, dwarf. Allow me," he pulls out coin enough to cover the charge for three, "Miss Rashana, would you like to join?" He flashes a brief smile at her, pleasant enough but nothing more formal than necessary. Quickly he attempts to get the attention of Garon with a brief gesture.
Under his breath, loud enough for both to hear, but none else, Kael mutters softly, "I do not trust orcs. But their strength is good in fights. Nothing more."

She has become a spider and climbed into the ravine to harass the odorous ones below. They are coming to us.

“I will join you for the company, but alas I am not permitted to partake of alcoholic beverages. The offer is appreciated.”, she replies in honest gratitude but with out explanation. The sorceress takes a seat at the bar along side the elf and dwarf as they await the return of Kelset and places an order for a simple cup of water. She has found over the years that much can be revealed of man as he drinks while she remains a sober observer.
Her ears bristle over Kael’s casual dismissive remarks in subtle reference to the now absent volunteer. She is quick to interject in an attempt top smooth over the tone of conversation, “He is half-human.”

Hearing the comment about Kelset, Delber chimes in "and the fact that he is half-human, please don't hold that against him." he then smiles at the attempt at humor.

Vardok quickly swipes his coin off the table and puts it back where it belongs. "A dwarf ne'er turns down free beer. Ah don' trust the tusker neither; if Ah wurnt viz-eet'n mah great-uncle's smithy, Ah'd bet a pound o' gold 'e'd rob an' murder the ol' dwarf inniz sleep. Least 'e ain' so lay-zee as ot'er tuskers."
