*Melody's ears would perk up as she'd listen to him asking them for directions, a feeling of gratitude rising within her as she had nearly forgotten to ask herself. When Dismas had finally returned back with his newly obtained knowledge of the tavern location, Melody would give a nod back in response.*"Thank you. Shall we go?"*She'd ask, offering a smile before continuing off in the direction he had pointed in.*"Hopefully Salvania has some nice food to try out. It's been a while since I've gotten a good meal after being on the road for a while."
Laura
"Of course." *He said nodding as he walked with Melody.* "I feel you, been a while since I've eaten anything that isn't freshly picked carrots, dried goat, dry biscuits or lard. I crave for a good, well seasoned pork chop accompanied with a pint of beer or a glass of wine." *He said that with a hint of obsessiveness in his tone. Dismas was a man hardened by life on the field, but life on the lonesome road to his surprise was entirely different. Rations stayed the same but this time he had to ration those rations, he had no supply line nor was he a higher up of nobility, even if impoverished, his old life was way more plentiful in luxuries. He now had to live like the rest of the populace, some would even say it was worse, picking off the just barely edible scraps he found on the road, being barely able to muster up enough coin to even afford but a morsel, unable to drink from the lake in fear of the maladies that swarmed it. Hunting was an option, but not an easy one as hunting accompanied by a full suit of armor and an absence of a bow didn't seem to mix well. Alas, in a life as such, a small fish the size of one's palm taken from some dirty lake was considered a delicacy.*

"Sounds like you can do with a nice large Tavern dinner, huh?"*She'd ask him, finding humor in his over descriptiveness of the food. He must have gone a long while without something proper to eat. Nothing like some tavern food to settle a stomach back in.*"I'd say we deserve that much after stopping a few criminals don't you think?"*She'd let out a quiet giggle, soon trotting on ahead as the Tavern would come into view.*"Looks like we didn't get lost this time. I'd call that good fortune. Come on, let's see what they have to offer here."
Laura
*Dismas nodded as he happily followed Melody to the tavern. Good fortune indeed, just the thought of even a small loaf of bread freshly out the oven made his mouth water. And with the coins he's been earing from the charitable people of Salvainia, he'd be able to afford it all. He walked into the tavern before Melody, he simply couldn't wait, breathing in the merrymaking in the air as he saw men and women being served with pints of ale or beer, the fresh aroma of freshly cooked steaks, salmons and other meaty delicacies was potent. He smiled with delight, barely able to contain his excitement, even for his rather stoic nature. The smell was normal for the average person, but for man who's been spent most of his time around the putrid pungent smell of rot as he dabbled in murder mysteries and crime scenes day after day, the smell of a lowly tavern was heaven to his nose.*

*Melody would go to follow after him, only to find herself stopped at the doorway as her rear seemed to have struggle going through. She'd watch him enter the warm place with ease, finding herself having to catch up.*"Just a minute-"*She'd say. A golden light would pass over her back end, the deer half soon vanishing from sight as it would be replaced with two normal human legs. Melody would give a light sigh of relief upon being freed, soon coming to join the man in his own enjoyment of the Tavern.*"See a good place for us to sit?"*She'd ask him casually as if the whole trick of her brief transformation was nothing new. Melody had grown used to it over the years what with traveling warranting a much different atmosphere for people of her kind, not to mention training in general. However, she learned to adapt to her environment in time, making going from place to place much easier with greater options.*
Laura
*Dismas didn't seem to notice Melody's transformation, too busy gawking the tavern in awe. Tapping his foot to beat of the music, although dull compared to that of Macen music, was still quite fitting. He scouted the place before eventually finding a good place near the bar.* "Found one, this way." *He said gesturing Melody to follow him as he approached the bar and sat down on one of the stools.*
Renee
*Melody would come to follow after him, soon taking a seat in one of the stools next to him as she'd glance around the area.*"You think it would be possible for me to rent a room here for the night?"*She'd ask him, wondering if he'd had more experience with taverns than she did. In his excitement of it, it was hard to tell, but it wouldn't hurt for the Centaur to at least have somewhere to stay for the night, even if it was just any other tavern bedroom.*
Laura
*Dismas gave his order to the tavernkeeper, a steak and some cognac. Of course they didn't have any cognac so he settled with a pint of beer. As the tavernkeeper went to get his order he turned to answer Melody's question.* "Unsure, not every tavern is the same, most of the times taverns are barely built with rentable rooms in mind, most oftenly having rooms' in store for those who pass out due to drunkenness or a bar fight caused by drunkenness, some taverns simply throw those patrons out into the streets. Rentable rooms are mainly a trait inns have rather than taverns that are more made with drinking and dancing in mind. However, some taverns may make some room and sneak you in the attic granted if you cough up enough coins, alas that's my experience with mainly Mentian taverns, I'm unsure how they are like in Salvainia, so far other than cultural differences, not much different."
