intro
In reply to Gannor (msg # 11):
Guthrir has been distracted by the 'wee bonnie lass', Merelda, a short blonde with a pixie cut, a sweet disposition, the hips of a goddess, and the face of an angel. His attentions are not without benefit, though, as they keep the refills prompt and the food service even prompter.
In a room full of loud, drunken people, good service is worth twice Merelda's weight in platinum.
After the fourth round of drinks, even Guthrir's dwarven constitution is ringing under the influence of cheap ale, but the druid's voice and his hand are still steady. He's been pacing himself.
In a low voice, he confides to Gannor, "Merelda says she got a second cousin or some such runs errands fer one a' the council members involved in that coup. She also says Denova, the cook and a mighty half-orc woman aside, haes family that tends sheep out t'ward the mountains. Says they've lost a few ta that wyrm." He grins. "The lass may look like a shepherdess, but she haes a sharp mind and keen ears. Ah'd bet there be some elf in her family."
