Because of course it did, why wouldn't it. Where else would it happen?<br/>A particularly small inn, at the roadside of a small village that had formed mostly because there was a small spring, the Issel, that had given this place it's name of Isselbach, closeby.<br/>Well, the spring plus it was too far away from anyone overly dangerous to care to invade it. Neither the barbarians in the far north, nor the marauding orc-tribes in the west, nor the xenophobic elf-tribes of the east were anywhere close and the coastal kingdoms of the humans in the far south were indifferent enough to the little trade-road leading past Isselbach.<br/><br/>It was a good place to settle, if you didn't want to be paid much attention to. Equally, if you hunted for adventure, it was a good place for temporary rest.<br/>The Inn wasn't exactly segregated, but there was one area where the hunters and lumbermen sat.. and anothere were the non-humans and womanfolk gathered.<br/><br/>Currently, there was a bit of a talk going on at the mens 'side' of the Inn, something about checking out a cave in a moderatly dangerous area. But, before you can peek in more closely, there is a slight commotion and a rustling the man that had started the discussion sighed.. and leaned against a wall of the inn.<br/>(https://78.media.tumblr.com/fff666b036ee03ffb9fdc636949fdbd5/tumblr_myttgyQhzY1sou3t6o1_500.jpg)<br/><strong>Most definitly not a wizard<br/>Isselbach Inn<br/>Tag: Everyone</strong><br/><br/>The man seemed to be old. Well, he was certainly not that old, but he just had a .. quality of age, about him. Also, right now, an air of annoyance, as he leaned on a twisted staff almost as large as him.<br/>"Those stubborn fools." He complained, loud enough to hear, but clearly speaking to himself.<br/>"They would not notice a danger if it bit their face and once it did, they would ignore it for a week and none around them would notice the change either." He mumbled the end of that and then looked up and about.<br/><br/>"Perhaps I have more sucess with the feminine side of things.." He cleared his throat, looking about. "Are any of you looking for an adventure?" He asked, most of the local women quickly averting their eyes at this.<br/><br/>"I am looking for those that are brave enough to explore the Ayvanus cave in the north, with me, to look for a long lost treasure.. now, I know that that cave is just a myth to most.. but I am certain I can divine its place... but not if I a also have to deal with the dangers of the wildernis...<br/>If you aid me, whatever treasure the cave holds will be yours, I merely look at the cave for scholarly interest." He nodded.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Ayvanus cave, common knowledge</div><div class="spoiler_body">King Ayvanus was the last great half-elven king, who fell, many years ago, fighting against some great evil. As rumors have it, he locked away much of his magical, military might in a cave and sealed it, but an evil witch stole the memory of the how to unseal it from him, almost causing his defeat, if not for the interferance of.. Dragons? Noble giants? Was it eagles? Something had interfered and saved his butt, that much you recall.<br/>Knowledge of History can potentially reveal more.</div></div><br/>(Feel free to do introductions, questions, rolls, etc!)<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Elfs</div><div class="spoiler_body">Most people in the inn watch you with curious caution and keep a respectful distance.
