While he broke his fast, listening to Abia talk to Erin, he chuckled a little to himself. A trader like that, with Abia his best customer, if he saw a new face, he'd of course try to get a few more coin. Such was life, but he had no doubt in mind that Erin could stand her ground. Abia, albeit her normal self, or so it seemed, still looked the mess she was when walking into the bar area with 4 damping plates.<br/><br/>'Abia, I realise you do not know me yet, but flour in a girl's hair is not a really attractive sight, I really would urge you to look in one of your mirrors, to know you need to get a wash yourself. What be it that some attractive man ventures in this tavern and his first impression of you is this look? You certainly wouldn't want that. For me personally,  one should look further as looks, but young folk these days tend to think otherwise. It's just a suggestion.<br/><br/>Now that I am well fed, my many thanks for a wonderful breakfast, I think I will venture in this town and see if I can purchase myself a cottage of sorts. I think I cannot be a burden upon you to be renting one of your fine rooms for a longer time. There no doubt will be other travellers, walking in and out of the Calm Leaf, who will have need on those rooms. And since I plan on hanging around for a while, mayhap it will be better to have a more permanent place here'.
