The two had a sort of dispute, something about "feeding the thing", which the stableboy didn't want to do, but was ordered to.<br/><br/>As far as options went there were only two routes to take - north or south. A toss of a coin which to take - the innkeeper would have to guess either way. Would he expect them to head striaght to Waterdeep, or think they would want to have him think that, and go south? Or think she'd expect him to think that, and go north anyway?
