Wu Ling sits at the Shadowdale Inn

Guest

The elf turns away from the bar and seats himself back at the table, snickering to himself as he goes. Once seated he pulls a glowing green gem from his pouch and holds it between two fingers. He props up his head with an elbow on the table, a bored look on his face, and idly plays with the gem in hand.

Smoke billows from the hooded man, as he sits in a lone corner of the Old Skull Inn. With each puff of the pipe, the glowing embers give light to his worn and tired features. A long beard, on a long and sad face. He sits hunched, his dire wolf pelted shoulders broad and strong. His eyes settle on something near, but his mind is distant. Memories of past and thoughts of times to come wander his mind.

He exhales a cloud of smoke, and licks at his dry lips. A meaty, gnarled and calloused hand reaches for a nearby horn, filled with a frothy and dark ale. He sips greedily, the drink running down his shaggy and wild beard in rivulets. He sets down his beverage, his thirst quenched for now.

Green eyes now blink twice, in succession. His focus glares on those else in the tavern, paying no mind to conversations being held. Only faces and bodies.

*Jarrin leans his head out of his office for a few seconds, happy to see the joint finally getting some business. He then goes back to his mountains of paperwork grumbling about invoices and payrolls*

Ling grunts as he gets no response from the women and goes back to smoking his pipe. He calls over the barmaid to take the small remains of his food and for another ale. He takes out some playing cards from his pack and starts to play solitaire on the bar.

Lira nodded soberly at Carmyne. "Understood - if fighting is the skill you have then more power to you. Healers without fighters will end up doing little good." Her expression was pensive, considering for a few moments, then brightened once more. "But many thanks for assistance with the fliers! Whatever your beverage of choice, you are drinking on my tab this eve!"

Lira waved the waitress over and gave her a stack of gold coins, nodding towards Carmyne. "Set her up with whatever she wishes and let me know when that runs out, aye?"

Her glance took in the others around the bar, most seemingly lost in their solitary pursuits, and a crease appeared between her brows. "Don't suppose anyone has a tale or a song to share, do they? Maybe something heroic, the besting of great odds?"

Lira catches the eye of the lonesome man in the lonesome corner. His eyes, emerald green, narrow; His jaw, broad and square, clenches; His brow, bushy and brown, furrows. He shakes his head at first, chewing on the eye of his pipe in contemplation.

Instead he minds his own and keeps quiet. He clears his throat with a gruff rumble from deep within, as he props armoured arms on the table's top. He leans in, peering from under the brim of his dull-grey and worn pelted hood.

She would smile to Ling, a warm caring smile. No Charge? Well I suppose it is becuase in this winter, when the Harvest Crops that were stored are to be given to the Clergy and the People. All those in need, are all children of the Mother, Regardless of their Intent or Fealty to other deities, It would be callous of us to ignore their strife. So... I give this food freely becuase I wish to give it freely to see that they are kept warm from Frost, well fed, to keep their Spirit alive. She blushes still smiling to Ling.

Ling stops again and listens to the response, thinking for a time. "Wu Ling is moved by eh... Compassion. We speak again later?" Giving her a small smile.

She nods once Of Course, I'd very much like that smiling, as she nodded.

Malkaris watches everything unfold with a half smile. His journal was long since been put away and simply seems content to take everything in. Every few moments he seems to look at the mark of Tyr on his hand in contemplation.

Sophia would dip her head to Ling and her friends, before leaving the Inn, and heading back to the House of Plenty.

Anyn continues to eye the tavern in silence, eyelids drooping from time to time then snapping open again. The gem in his hand continues to emit its soft green glow. A curious smirk crosses his lips then fades away to another apathetic expression.

Bored with the events inside the inn, the elf stands and saunters out the door.

He returns a few short moments later and sits back down at his previous table. He seats himself with a "hmph" and his bored expression returns.

Wu Ling leaves shortly later after putting away his cards and pipe. He leaves a generous tip at the bar and winks to the elven barmaid on the way out.

Lira examined the handful of parchments that Carmyne had inked for her. She beamed at the bold ink titling and the picture of hands - they seemed caring, somehow. "Wondrous indeed! Thank you so much Carmyne! I know these will be perfect for the hospital!" She shuffled the parchments into a pile, neatening the edges and gesturing to the waitress. "I promised to cover your drinks, and I shall, but if there is aught I can do in return, please do not hesitate to call on me. I am in your debt Carmyne."

She sprinkled coins to cover the bar tab and then overtipped rather egregiously. She gave Carmyne a last beaming smile and then transferred it one by one to the collection of loners in the common room as she shrugged on her cloak and moved to the door. "Good night and good cheer!" was her farewell as she blew out into the night.
