As she stepped inside she pulled the hood back from her face and shook out her long, silver hair. It wasn't done<em>just</em>to draw attention as she made an entrance but it never hurt.  She raised her mug when it arrived, clinked it up against any who would join her, and took a long, long, series of gulps of the drink, looking decidedly not like a fragile mystic as she imbibed, and more like a woman who could hold her own drinking with orcbloods.<br/><br/>Her eyes wandered to where Ix's head lay. Her hand started creeping towards it. The urge to pet it and skrtich a bit behind the ears was overwhelming. No. No. Control yourself. Kayanna pulled her hand back and took another drink.<br/><br/>"So." She said, putting the mug down. "Town built in a swamp. Raining. Mayor named Lardbum." She nodded at  Therengrath, answering his question. "This is staring off great isn't it?"
