<div class="floatright">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/e/e2/Ashlyn_close.jpg)</div>Emerald found Ashlyn in the dining hall, seated and attacking a stack of sliced bread spread thick with lard and fried a deep golden brown, accompanied by sausages and eggs and an empty bowl that looked to have contained crackl'n porridge.<br/><br/>The warrior's blonde hair was darkly damp at the moment, the likely result of dipping her head in a trough to rinse away the sweat of her morning practice.  Finishing off a knifeload of bread and sausage, she grinned up at the alchemist while thoroughly and slowly chewing away.  After what was likely an entire minute, she finally swallowed and allowed the smile to flash into a toothy grin.<br/><br/>"Good morning."  Breakfast was her favorite meal.  She sure hoped there were good cooks where they were going.  "Want some?"  She asked, pushing a nearby platter of the fried bread toward the newcomer.
