OOC: We'll say Amylarn's introduction goes well and she is welcome to join the group.

As the cemetery clears out, the group heads back to The Crying Lady Tavern.
Radcliffe follows a bit behind, talking here and there with townsfolk who were in the cemetery to get their perspective on what happened.
OOC: Posting about tavern, to remind you about The Crying Lady.
Nestled between two busy warehouses on the docks of Ilipur about two blocks south of the cemetery, The Crying Lady is a favorite of traveling adventurers, sailors, women of fallen virtues, and merchants who can not afford the higher-priced taverns in the richer section of the city.
The Crying Lady is that little grey/white square building on the docks, on the "south" side of the map. The cemetery is about 2 blocks to the northeast of The Crying Lady.
The map is flipped, however, and the water should be to the "north".
The owner of the Crying Lady is no lady at all, but a massive half orc named Timmon. He employs only half orcs or half elves, and each of them wear clothing that is two colored, each color split down the middle.
Today, for instance, Timmon wears a shirt that is red on one side, a deep purple on the other.
Timmon claims that only those who are half-breed can fully understand each other, and his staff (an ugly half-elven ex-pirate named Gilgrey who is the cook, a half orc cleaner and bouncer named Vurgrund, and two serving girls, Hildy and Simone, for first a half-orc with flowing dark hair and the latter a half elven lass of mystery with short raven-black hair) seem to agree.

Hildy, the half-orc, greets you as you enter, shaking her head.
Nasty business there at the cemetery I heard.
And some folk came in needing drinks, saying how brave they thought you were.
First drink's on the house today.
We still have that squash stew, late season snapper in a tangy sauce, bass with a side of spiced potatoes, or chicken stuffed with bread pudding and gravy.
You remember that each meal costs 5 silver and comes with a glass of wine, mug of ale, or goats's milk.
She points to the round table near the lighted fireplace near a small stage where you say before.
Radcliffe, the tall half elven bard, comes in about 10 minutes after you do.
He walks to the bar, sits down heavily, as if bothered by something, and orders an ale.
Despite the mess in the cemetery, his skin is still perfectly clean and pristine, as if he has never set foot among the common people.
