Mevis would walk on over to the nearest inn. Didn't want to spend any longer walking in the cold considering that's what he had been doing the past few days. He didn't eat at inns as he had a massive stockpile of bread, but he felt the need to celebrate with Hitoshi. He had read that in the tales of heroes the hero would gather their adventuring party for a huge feast after completing their life threatening quest. Granted their quest wasn't as impressive as the hero's in the book, but it was still life threatening. So a small treat at an inn seemed appropriate.
Rose
"I've never been here before, how about you?"
David
*Hitoshi follows Mevis, assuming he knows a lot more about the place than Hitoshi.

Hitoshi isn't really thinking as deeply as Mevis about it. He is proud of himself and of Mevis for taking on the paladin, but didn't necessarily see this as a celebration. He just really fancied getting something nice to eat, and saw the mission as a good excuse.*
Patricia
"Nope. Hope it's good."
Brian
Mevis nodded, realizing how stupid his question was. If he recalled correctly it seemed Hitoshi still had a debt to the guild. Wouldn't make sense for him to have that much excess wealth to be able to enjoy meals at inns like this. Mevis would take a seat at a table and wait for a waitor to take their order. During that time Mevis decided he could make some small talk with Hitoshi, get to know him better.
Rose
"So, uh, this might come as awkward, but I was wondering if you could tell me more about yourself? Well, something more cheerful... Maybe about the things you've enjoyed about the area? I mean, that is if you're not from here, I just kind of assumed given your accent. I apologize if it was a wrong assumption..."
Patricia
"Uhh... The food here is nice. I tried making it once. Went really wrong. Tasted really bad. But it would be nice to get a job cooking when I get better..

Tell me more about you, Mevis."
Rose
"Me? Well, there isn't much to say... If it makes you feel any better I can't really cook either. I just carry bread with me all the time, kind of like Arthur. Speaking of him, I haven't seen him recently. He was the one that introduced you to me. Do you think he is still stuck on his page quest?"
David
*Hitoshi opens his mouth to explain that he can cook, but he just isn't used to Salvanian recipes just yet... But decides not to be a pedantic asshole about it.

Hitoshi shakes his head to the question regarding their mutual friend. If Arthur wanted a quest done, that quest would be done. There's no doubt about that, at least, in Hitoshi's mind. Unless it was stealth. Arthur can't sneak for the life of him.*
Brian
Mevis sighs. Yeah, it didn't make sense for Arthur to still be stuck with his quest if he was able to complete it. Frankly Mevis knew that, but he sucked at making small talk so he was just grasping at straws. Does it take this long for a waiter to come by? Mevis wasn't used to talking for this long with anyone. He didn't like talking about the past, so maybe asking about the future would be the best.
Rose
"Yeah, I assumed as well. If anything he is probably thriving in this chilly environment. Time sure passes by quickly. To think just a month or so ago us three were mere recruits. I won't be surprised if by the end of this winter if the two of you are among the higher ranks of the guild. But I suppose that does bring the question on what will you do beyond that?"
David
*Hitoshi scratches at his face again. He doesn't really know. After he climbs the ranks of the New Sunlight guild, he, uhh.. Should find a steady job, that's for sure. That didn't have anything to do with the New Sunlight, because he doesn't want his life to revolve around the guild entirely.

Hitoshi realises just how little actual thought he's put into his new life. Besides learning the Silnari Standard language a little better... Yeah, that's about it.*
Patricia
"Not sure. I do not want to work for the New Sunlight forever... How about you?"
David
*Hitoshi finally gets bored and decides to wave for someone to get their order.*
Brian
A female water macen walks up carrying two menus and hands it to Mevis and Hitoshi. She has a smile that radiates an aura of hospitality.
"Welcome to the Jolly Apple! May I take your order?"

Mevis would look through the menu and sweat a bit. He wasn't a man that valued wealth, but the prices listed were a bit higher than he expected. Even the bread here was expensive. However, they had come here for good time, so Mevis merely sighs accepted that his wallet may be a bit light after today.
Rose
"Uh, I'll have the 'Beef on the Bone Special' and a mug of the 'Jolly Apple Cider'"
David
*With no idea of what to make of most of the food, Hitoshi piggybacks off of Mevis' order.*
Patricia
"I'll have that too."
Brian
The waitress nods, smiling all the while"Will that be all?"
Mevis nods "For me at least..."
David
*Hitoshi just nods and smiles.

"Just shut up and nod, you idiot. Your **Brilliant** Knowledge of the local language shouldn't butcher this outing." Hitoshi internally bullies himself for a bit.*
Brian
The waitress takes the menu's from Hitoshi and Mevis and bows "Your food will be brought to you shortly." And heads to the kitchen with the order

Mevis would visibly relax at this point, glad they had been able to order to food.
Rose
"So you like apple cider also huh? I was usually the only one"
Patricia
"Uhh... Never tried it. I hear it is nice.

It better not be like, uhh... The.. The winter wine. Mulled wine, I think? That is horrible."
Rose
"Wine huh? I've only ever had a sip of wine. They're usually expensive right? Did you buy the mulled wine by mistake?"
Patricia
"Yeah... It was not smart of me."
