Shardorn speaks up. "I remember passing an inn, the one that Nathan's friend at the gate mentioned - The Ace of Diamonds, I believe. We may want to venture there, as it is already dark and we do not know the city. I think that it's just down the street, back towards the way we came in."

"To the Ace of Diamonds then. Last one there buys the first round."

Jansson heads down the stairs and along to the Ace of Diamonds, keeping an eye open for anything odd. The earlier feeling of unease has still not left him.

You walk down the muddy street, keeping your eyes out for anything unusual. The clouds in the sky above begin to clear away, and reveal a nightsky full of bright stars.

The doorway to the inn, which was previously crowded with people, is now mostly empty. The earlier sounds of loud laughter and song have now become subtler, subdued.

The door opens inward as you begin to approach it, and a somewhat portly man stands there looking out.

"There it goes again," He mutters under his breath.

"Welcome, travellers, to the Ace of Diamonds." He says, and motions you into a large common room, filled with tables and chairs. Several people sit around a few tables, with cards between their hands and making shifty glances at each other. He shuts the door behind you as you walk in. "What services can the Ace provide for you six fine people this evening?"

"Fascinating things, those. I've never had the skills to craft one though."

"Craft one? I found it!"
Osius scrambles after the others en route to the Ace of Diamonds.

"Lodgings for the night, a meal, and an early breakfast when we arise, please, O Innkeeper."

"Lodgings, eh?" He says, and sizes up the group. "Hmm... we're a bit tight on rooms, with the Ambassador in town and all, but I believe that I do have 6 rooms left. Let me check." He pulls a keyring out of his pocket, and counts the number of keys on it. "Yes, I do indeed have six rooms left!

"Well, I believe that just the rooms would be about 3 gold - 5 silver for each of you. As for the meals, add another 5 silver for each of you for our current fare - chili, using my own recipe - but we have some fancy stuff in the back if you don't like our normal service, part of the gifts from the ambassador's men, that goes down mighty fine but costs thrice. Some sort of bird, I believe. Early breakfast would be anywhere between 5 silver and 1 gold for each of you, depending upon how early you want it and whether it want it warm or cold."
 

"I'll try one of the birds the ambassador's men brought with them then. And I'd prefer a warm breakfast, never mind the cost."

Jansson looks around the inn, then goes and finds a seat near the fire.

OOC: Would you look at that. Post 100 already!

The inntender nods his head. "Alright, I'll go back and prepare them. Go ahead and take a seat. I'll get the rest of your orders for meals once I get the chef in the back to preparing those birds."

He dashes off to the back of the inn, leaving you to your own devices.
