Night comes, night goes. The only thing of interest is the distant howl of coyotes and a very quick passing shower. The sun rises early, and there is only but a few clouds in the sky. The temperature is slightly colder than desired, considering it's a mid-autumn morning, but with an open sky the sun should have no problem warming the ground up to a comfortable level.

Evander respectfully rouses the others and begins to pack up his gear. From what they remember, the Broken Log at Baron's Cross is only a few more hours away south down the Silver Road. They might be able to make it there for a late breakfast or early lunch.

"Mr Dragon, we'sa gonna race dese guys to da breakfast table," Kuluil says after breaking camp, saddling his lizard mount and pointing in the right direction, "'Honwards, noble steed!"

Mr Dragon is not fast but he is reliable and can clamber up walls.

Rua'thil awoke and finished her ablutions. Before setting out, the woman summoned her dragon companion takeover her outer skin and they both felt whole once more. Taking their customary place in the marching order, they set out, "Let's continue onwards then. We do have to report our findings and we have been gone for awhile."

[FrancisJohn]

It is just before high noon as the intrepid group of adventurers reach the intersection known as Baron's Cross. This is of course where the Silver and East Roads meet. They could venture to lands east if they take a left, go further south if they continue straight, or head towards Venza if they hang a right. Of course, the Broken Log Inn and Tavern lie before them if they so wish to patronize the business.

"Mr Dragon says he wants some water for da drinkies," Kuluil indicates the tavern ahead, "An mebbe Kuluil wants da beers. Mr Prince always likes da beers to if dat ain't changed."

 

[FrancisJohn]

Evander chuckles at Kuluil's assumption. "That hasn't changed, and especially not after what we've been through. Zin, Rua'thil, you guys coming in for some food and drink?"

Rua'thil was hesitant as usual when it came to returning to civilization and dealing with people. She always felt a little naked without Tamarak around her, particularly after being away from the cities and towns and spending nearly every waking minute inside the dragon.

"We shall see if we are welcome as we are. If not, then we shall have to separate and take a minute to join you all later."

Without being too forceful, they took a peek and tried to sense the atmosphere regarding their appearance.

Kuluil walks through the door, "Kuluil hab da hunger."

He let's Mr Dragon follow. If no stable hand is going to come out then it seemed the only option.

 

[FrancisJohn]

The intrepid group of heroes swing open the door to the Broken Log and cross through the threshold. All of the patrons give pause and every head swivels to stare at the group in silence. The collective gaze surely focuses most heavily on the form of Tamarak. The moment only lasts but two seconds before they return to their food and private conversations.

The establishment isn't at capacity but it is mostly filled. The Broken Log does most of it's business during the daytime, this being to the fact that it lies at the center of a busy trade route intersection. Among the current clientele include a trio of dwarves, a solitary elf, and large mixed group of halflings and gnomes, and various other humans and half-breeds interspersed throughout.

They find an empty table, and an older but larger country woman. She appears tired but ready to work. Her look lingers a moment longer on Tamarak, but doesn't seem to pay much further mind. "Top of the day to ya... Our main chef is out sick so keep it simple if you will."

Kuluil gives the woman a cheerful look from behing his mask, "Kuluil wants to know if you has da stew. Vegable stew, fishy stew, animal stew, chikkin, bebbie sheeps, cow, ducks, Kuluil does not mind as long as it haz da thick bread ta mop up da juicy stock. Kuluil's favourite iz da black bread."

"Also, do you haz pints? Kuluil would like a pinta ale."

"Wut does you guyz wants?"

Evander can't help but smile at Kuluil's exuberance contrasted with Zinnelis's stoic response. "I'll have the stew and an ale too, if you'd be so kind." Evander throws a wink at the middle-aged waitress and she blushes a little. She happily responds, "They say Fernando's meat stew is as good as Fred's, ya know." She turns to Tamarak, gulps, and asks. "For you, sir... ma'am?" She clearly is now anxious and certainly appears to avoid offending the dragonoid....

Rua'thil/Tamarak appeared to relax slightly and smiled at the waitress. Though, that might have looked too predatory as an afterthought. When they spoke, their voice was that of a female half-elf in sound, so they determined it would be less intimidating.

"The meat stew shall be fine. And some wine or fruit juice if you have... and some bread and cheese as well."

 

[FrancisJohn]

The waitress flinches slightly at the surprising nature of the disconnect between Tamarak's appearance and Rua'thil's voice. Determined to serve, she dutifully heads back to the kitchen.

A few minutes later the table fills with wooden bowls and spoons for everyone, and a giant pot of stew in the middle to be shared. The meat stew would prove to turn out to be rather filling. She also brings out a loaf of round pumpernickel bread with some oats sprinkled on top. It is just beginning to stale a bit, but remains tasty enough either way. It is not clear what kind of cheese block is served. It's rather hard but servable chunks can be nicked off without too much trouble. The chunks have a sharp taste, but do in fact have a certain addictive quality that the best cheeses offer. Ales and fruit wine is served as well, and though they are refreshing, they aren't anything of note to write home about.

Kuluil can only manage half a bowl of food and half his ale. He is only a small fellow after all. He skips the cheese in an effort to finish the stew but gives up when it starts to get cold and feeds it to his lizard mount.

"How is da bizness, missus?" he asks the waitress, curious and in need of talking to someone different for a short time, "Keepin' busy?"
