[QUOTE="Kyoni, post: 2675150, member: 37335"] Since a few days one can see a new face lurking in the tavern of the citadel: a halfling. Downing beer like most dwarves here, she listens to stories while telling a few mercenary stories of her own (mostly either not her own or made up). For those used to mercenary ways the message was clear: she is looking for a job. When she can't be found in the tavern, she can be found wandering about the citadel obviously visiting the trading places (if she happens to find a detailed map of the northern region, she will study it carefully). After all, rumors always travel quickly with a few beer, so she knows about the rumors about impending danger from the north. Much less obvious was the fact that she also takes good note of the way defense is organized (number of guards, length of their duty and such). But one might notice that she doesn't sleep nearly half as much as most people do. Unless she is capable of sleeping while downing beer or wandering around...? Somebody asking her about it might earn an angry stare and an anwer like:"[COLOR=Indigo][B]It is as dangerous to sleep at the wrong time, as it is dangerous to ask the wrong question in the wrong place![/B][/COLOR]" [/QUOTE]
