Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jarval" data-source="post: 2551812" data-attributes="member: 421">Ged takes Brystasia's arm, his good manners obviously both more practiced and taken more seriously than Hestia's.  The three start strolling along the street, Ged leading the way towards The Golden Griffon, a fairly sizeable inn at the end of Temple Street.Hestia falls into line on the other side of Brystasia, smiling cheerfully."Just think, once we're done with our search, we'll be off into the countryside."  Her excitement is clear in her voice.  "I'll get to see forests and lakes, real wilderness, not just parks.""Yes indeed, I'm sure you'll find it quite wonderful."  Ged says, suppressing his amusement at Hestia's words as he pushes open the inn door, holding it clear to let the two women through.The interior of the inn is brightly lit and clean, with the walls painted a warm red.  A good dozen round wooden tables are spread through the inn's common room, half of which have merchants or wealthier farmers and their families sat around them.  Many of the inn's patrons turn to look at the newcomers, and many eyes remained fixed on Brystasia.  Ged frowns in annoyance at their stares, leading the way to a table in one corner of the inn and sitting himself between the rest of the common room and the two women he's escorting."Brystasia, you know far more of the wilds of our country than we do, I am quite sure.  What can you tell us?  I suspect the tales I get from the merchants may be somewhat exaggerated..."</blockquote>
