Swords Against...
Pious draws a round of laughter when he asks for a 'good' wine. A massively obese man with the hilt of a greatsword peering over his shoulder, wearing nothing but leather pants tucked into well-worn boots, said, "Good wine? More like pig swill, sweetheart. Why don' you come sit next to me and we'll discuss some finer pleasures."
He winks at the priest, then burps loudly.
For his part, Pious shakes his head and orders an ale, then makes his way back to the table with Kalmus and Agrax.
"Told yun, priest, this place no cater to finer things. Jus' shy of a dive," Agrax said. The quick dart of her tongue as she lapped at her beer was disconcerting to onlookers but Kalmus and even the prim Pious were used to it.
"Where we gon, boss?" Agrax asked through a burp.
Their discussion was cut short as the huge man stood from his table. He was a bit wobbly, but his eyes were keen as he made his way to the table. Looking the group over, he determined Kalmus the leader. In a much softer voice he said, "Yer unsanctioned. The guilders here don't like independents. Have a care, the master's no joke, will slit you throat to gullet as soon look at ya. Fair warnin."
So saying, he walked out of the tavern, into the night.
