5 Patchwall
The bruised, battered and exhausted heroes retire to their rooms within the Wench after eating a hearty breakfast and some discussion with Meddyg. While they sleep, the cleric of Phaulkon spends his day exploring the village, getting to know some of the villagers, and learning the places of interest within the village.
Come evening, he returns to the Inn of the Welcome Wench. There he learns that his new companions were still too exhausted to leave their rooms, so Ostler Gundigoot sent dinner up to them instead. Meddyg dines alone on a delicious meal of boiled crayfish in garlic butter while Beka (the pretty, buxom serving girl with the long chestnut tresses) flirts shamelessly with him.
After dinner Meddyg spends a few hours drinking and talking to both the locals and a few travellers. As the evening winds down, he finds himself playing knucklebones with the self-proclaimed treasurehunter Furnok of Furd (who is staying at the Inn, and is blessed with either good fortune or loaded dice), the traveling wizard Spugnois (who is also staying at the Inn, and who hasn't won a single round all night), and Leytan the Laborer (who lives in the laborer's tent camp on the edge of the village, and has won a few rounds here and there).
Being wise though, Meddyg retires to his room for the evening before it gets too late, before he drinks too much of Ostler's fine ale, and before he loses too many silver pieces. After all, he knows he has an early morning before him.
