Message: <blockquote data-quote="jbear" data-source="post: 6199801" data-attributes="member: 75065">Not long after the druid leaves for the side room the door of the inn is pushed open by a bushy bearded frazzled old man in robes with his nose buried in a thick leather tome. He navigates his way through the crowded room without once ever looking up sitting down at the table where Daylily and Aradra sit talking to Boric just in time to hear the loud mouthed warrior's claim about caving in fool wizard's skulls like melons. If he heard the remark he does not make any comment. In fact he offers no greeting at all, never once raising his eyes even for a moment from the book. Whatever he is reading is obviously rather dark in theme given the silver  pentagram in the circle on the front, and the grotesque drawings of hideous creatures on the pages surround by tiny scrawled script that delved into detail about the foul behaviours of the illustrated creatures. When Kalinn arrived with the celestial creature, although he did not look up from the book, he did mumble the word "good." What he meant by that, whether it was good that Kalinn had bought a magical item to protect her mind or that the aasimar was there, is entirely unclear. The rest of the conversation seems to pass entirely over the head of the old wizard, like a stream over a rock. He doesn't even flinch when Daylily's wild swinging rustles his beard, nor when Kalinn leaves. The man may as well not be there at all... it seems strange even that if he were so intent on reading that he would even enter such a noisy place as the inn.</blockquote>
