The Inn's batwings creaked, swaying on their hinges as Tialyn stepped through...Into the bustling lamplit room beyond! The Inn was - as always - doing a roaring trade, even as she blink-clinked <YES> into the prompt...A little thrill of relief coursing through her, now her location was secured. At least she wouldn't wake up in the middle of the swamp again...Really, this was for the best!<br/><br/>The smell was the first thing that struck her, mingling with the crackle of the hearty flames, the murmur of conversation! For a moment, Tialyn let it all wash over her...It<em>definently</em>was different from the (relatively) genteel bars and clubs she'd spent a few hours in before! It wasn't *too* hard to tell the NPCs from the PCs, however...You just had to look for who stood out.<br/><br/>"Hmmm..." Her slim fingers cupped her chin, her expression oh-so-thoughtful as she sauntered to the nearest seat - Easing herself into it, waving a tavern wench over! Sure, she might not<em>need</em>to eat, but she'd definently enjoy the taste...And besides, it'd add to the sense of verisimilitude! She could smell something roasting over the flames, a huge haunch of vension like something from one of those period dramas...Tialyn<em>definently</em>was going to try *that*-!<br/><br/>She couldn't help but chuckle, at the sight of the first pairing...My, but she wished that dwarf luck! It wouldn't do to interrupt them, but she really only needed one companion - Hmmm. This could be interesting.<br/><br/>Her legs crossed beneath the table, with a faint *scrape* of silky skin...An Eromancer? That could be interesting ~ But Tialyn was looking for someone with more...general applicability. Besides, her boyfriend seemed to be keeping her bus-<br/><br/>And then the air shimmered, in a haze of light - Coalescing, taking form as the Inn's newest...And entirely unfortunate!...arrival. She smiled, but didn't quite laugh...A soft sigh of sympathy purring from her lips. The elven Shadow Knight waved to the woman, her slim shoulders lifting in a little shrug - "Here, have a seat," she said, canting her head to the side. "-You look like you need to vent."<br/><br/>"*And* I have a Quest that might be just what you're looking for..."<br/><br/>It couldn't hurt to recruit her help, after all...Though given how she'd been so handily defeated, perhaps she'd need even more firepower. Still - Two of them could be enough!<br/><br/>"So...What happened?"
