Re: (IC) Chapter 1: You meet in a tavern....
The keep stops as Bucko throws it into the fire and starts to cook. He doesn't seem happy and yells out "Hey! Yah trying to take my customers?" The bard stops as he hears the tavern owner yell and all the other customers seems surprised. Trying to hold back, the keep grumbles something under his breath "I'll let it slide and stop taking drinks!" He noticed the goblin grabbing a drink from another table. He walks over and takes Bucko's drink and bring it back to the bar, empting it out.
The two waitresses look surprised as the goblin throws it into the fire on the grate. They stand there and wait for orders from the elf, ratling, half-orc and goblin. Noticing Vermina eating and drinking, they keep waiting on Xander, Brokk and Bucko and one of them speaks out quietly "Excuse me. Drinks? Food? Wait. No just drinks?" The keep throws a towel over its shoulder "Three ales?"
The elf looks at the keep and then to the waitresses "Two ales. Cider please for me." He then looks at Brokk and nods "I'm your friend, Brokk. Not a elf. Or a librarian. Your friend. And thank you, its appreciated. I know each of you are busy and I don't want to intervene, but I trust all of you and I wouldn't have asked but its important to me. And I'd do it for you as well." He takes the picture, pocketing it.
Nodding their heads, one of them goes behind the bar and starts to get the three drinks. The other wanders off, going table to table and everyone goes about getting the food and drinks. The bard starts to play again as the barkeep nods his head.
