<div class="floatleft">(http://images.elfwood.com/art/d/r/dragos/gnomefemale_small.jpg)</div>When Talia walks into the Boar's head, she at first goes unoticed.  Moving with no decernable noise, she glides on catlike feet.  Nor does she go out her way to be noticed either at first, but keeps in the background and shadows, appraising the situation before she goes further.  Finally, however, she is unoticed, because at less than 30 lbs, and barely 3 feet tall, she just doesn't take up much space.<br/><br/>As the human priest enters and enquires of the tough looking older dwarf about  Lady Amara Appleton, Talia is nearby, and as the man enters the room, she follows in closely behind him.  Not realizing the importance of the hooded figure, she still sits down when he guestures, and speaks up quickly.  "I've come to help, Lady... if I can.  I want to return your father to you.  In all honesty, the artifacts don't matter as much as his saftey.  If I find him... would it be alright if we then returned wihout the artifacts at all?"<br/><br/>There is a sound to her words, as if Common isn't her native tounge, but her voice is pleasing, if quiet.  As she asks her question, she leans forward a bit, unable to conceal her feelings.  Either she's an amazing actress, or she really means what she is asking.
