You found the young woman without much trouble.

"Is something wrong?" she asked.

"Not at all," said Hannah.  "But I don't know what form of payment you take for the food, and drink, and the help you gave Fred before."

"Oh, no payment is needed," the young woman said.

"...well, thank you," said Hannah.  "Can you tell me why?"

"Why not? If you don't help people out here, they die," the young woman said.

"That's very good of you," said Hannah.  "Thank you.  If there's something I can do to help this place, tell me.  I might be able to do it."

"It's fine, I hear you took out some slavers," the young woman said.

"Yes," said Hannah.  "I'll do it again, too, if I find more."

The young woman nodded her head.

"Where are you headed next?"

"Not certain yet.  We're strangers in this land," said Hannah.  "Is there a city near here?  That might be a good start."

"The next city is to the south," the young woman said. "There is not much to the north."

"Then I guess we're going south," said Hannah.  "Is there anything we should know about that area?"

"It's a big trading hub," the young woman said. "You can find nearly everything there."

"That's good," said Hannah.  "What would we need to be ready for a journey like that?"

"Besides some food and water, I'd say a map and some sort of cloak or coverings," the young woman said.

"Some of that, I can handle," said Hannah.  "Some of that is simple.  But where would we find a map?"

"There is a merchant who sells them," the young woman said.

"Can you show me where?" Hannah asked.  And could she figure out how to buy all this stuff, or would they help her?

"Ah, sure, hold on a moment," the young woman said, heading out of the room.

"Maybe she isn't interested in me...," Fred said.

"Who, Fred?" Hannah asked.  "If you mean me, well, unfortunately, you're right.  I've told you that before."

"Our waitress here," Fred said, as the waitress came back in much more sensible clothing.

"Well, maybe someday," said Hannah.  "Who knows?"

She waited to see what the waitress had to say.

"Ready to go?" the waitress asked.

"I suppose so," said Hannah, "if you can show us where to get a map."

"Yes, your friends can stay here," the waitress said. "Follow me."
