Message: <blockquote data-quote="DEFCON 1" data-source="post: 4604129" data-attributes="member: 7006">As the group lopes into town, the weight of exhaustion that he had been fighting suddenly crashed down upon the stalker.  Slowly Jarrith leads the group to the inn, where he acknowledges the freshly-healed Sir Urik.  Giving his best to the man, he begs forgiveness in not staying to regale him with their exploits until he has had time to rest.Jarrith walks over to the bar and requests a bottle of wine from the man behind the counter, then takes the libation with him upstairs to his room.  When he opens the door and walks in, immediately his belt and his pack are off and dropped hard to the floor, the pop of the cork is heard, and a long, slow draught is taken off the bottle.Jarrith reaches behind himseldf with his foot and slams the door shut on the hallway.  He takes another sip off the bottle, then wanders over to the wash basin... where he places the bottle on the floor and pours water into the basin.  He spends several minutes peeling his clothing and armor off of himself, then dives into the water, scrubbing, scrubbing and scrubbing the dirt, mud and soil from every crevice in his body.  Only when his body is clean does he do the same to the clothes he had been wearing, doing his best to remove what stains he can.Hanging his shirt and pants over the back of the chairs in the room to dry, he picks up the bottle of wine, polishes it off, drops the bottle to the floor, then climbs underneath the covers of the bed and falls immediately to sleep.</blockquote>
