Arnold nods as he heads into the kitchen with the empty plate. "As usual, your platters impress the guests." He says to Sloth, placing the plate among the others waiting for the dishwasher to turn up to begin work. He collects the tea from her and brings it through for the fox lady.
Ragella leans on the bar. "So, what's eating you, hun?" She asks Fiven. "People who wander in here like that usually have a story to tell."
"Oh me... Well, I've been traveling a long while, the first time on my own without my Mast..." His voice trails off as his eyes wander avoiding eye contact. "there's not much of a story for me to tell, but after a short stay here if I can, I'll be sure to start some new stories and adventures like the ones I've heard so much about from my friends." He quickly changes the subject "So how long have you been here, are you the owner?"

"Oh, me? No, I'm not the owner." Ragella replies, shaking her head. "Just another person taking a brief spell out of their life to work here. It's quite different working behind the bar rather than spilling your pint on it. I've been here a few weeks now, maybe just shy of a couple of months."
Arnold takes the drink over to the fox woman, who thanks him as he provides her with the change. She begins looking through the book while letting her tea strengthen a little, occasionally glancing up to those at the bar.
Fiven looks up at Ragella. "Nice and quiet in here. I like the quiet" he spins in his seat and looks about the mostly empty tavern. resting his elbows on the bar.
If Ragella looks at his arms she will notice some deep old scars just above his elbows on the back of his forearms with some fresh ones laced in there also.

Ragella seems to note, but doesn't push on the subject. "Yeah, it has it quiet moments. It can get rowdy too, but the quiet is usually a good time to catch up on things."
The fox person sips at her tea drink as she watches the pair at the bar, a small smirk on her face as she puts the drink down, then closes her book and puts it within her satchel. She makes a small gesture as if for offering for Fiven to join her.
Fiven speaks over his shoulder to Ragella, "Guess my new adventures are starting sooner than I thought." Fiven stands and grabs his staff and walks over to the table of the fox person, "May I" he asks pulling out a chair to sit.

Kelryn makes an appearance from the doorway with lute in hand. The lute itself is incredibly ornate and seems like it could fetch at least a thousand gold on it's own. She strums it dramatically before playing a jaunty tune. She sings as she walks toward the center of the room.
"Welcome, welcome! Come as you are, Come whatever may, The Rest in the Quest bids you good day! Dazzling drinks, Tasty Treats, And, of course, lovely ladies to serve you!"
Kelyrn winks at Ragella.

The fox lady smiles. It seems like a sincere smile, but the jawline makes it look slightly like a snarl. "But of course, young lad." She says. Her tone is warm and filled with signals of a motherly figure, though there is something slightly off with it.
Heading into the room is Keylin, singing her ditty as she plays lovely melodies on her lute, the room feeling a whole lot more homely than before.
The fox lady gives Kelyrn an applause with her clawed hands. "My, my, they are making such a fuss over two distant travellers, aren't they, young lad?" She says. She pulls a purse out of her satchel, placing a platinum piece on the table for Kelyrn. "A token of appreciation for your warm welcome."
Fiven sits and places the staff on his right side against the table. "It would seem so" he replies quietly as Keylin plays and sings. At the sight of the platinum piece Fiven swallows hard and tries to hold his composure, he sheepishly pulls a silver from his pocket and puts it directly into Keylins outstretched hand, his body language showing he is somewhat embarrassed he could not match the generous offer. Watching where she puts her satchel, old tricks die hard. but he shakes his head a little as if to clear his head. "What were you reading?" he asks to keep his mind off the money.
The fox lady looks up at Fiven. "Oh, I was just working through my timetable. Time is money and power, after all."She replies. "I have a meeting arranged for later on today and was seeing how much free time I had." She smiles again as she looks Fiven up and down. "Though I may have time in my schedule if you need it. Not to be one to judge by appearance, but you've been a naughty boy recently, haven't you?" She then Arnold over. "If you have anything with blueberry in, I'd like one for each of us."She pulls out another piece of platinum."Also I would like to have another lapsang souchong, and you, young lad?" She looks to Fiven.
"Oh just a water is fine for me, I haven't touched a drink in years" he sheepishly smiles at her notion of being bad. "Some have paths traveled that were guided by the wrong intentions, I've found a new path parallel to my old but still a higher one driven by selfless work and minimalism"

The fox lady chuckles as Arnold heads off with the order. "Oh, my dear boy." She places one hand on the table, and the other pushes the spectacles slightly further up her snout. "You can trust me not to speak out about your troubles. All of my conversations are completely confidential." Her hand she used to adjust her spectacles reaches into her satchel and she pulls out a piece of copper wire. She holds it to her mouth and speaks again. Rather than it being a normal conversation, the message appears in Fiven's head.
"If you would prefer to get something off your chest, we can speak in private, my dear boy. You can respond in kind."
The fox lady responds."Oh, not long. I arrived here only this morning. My lifestyle keeps me travelling to many a different place, and this lovely little inn seemed like a nice place to stop off." She then whispers into the copper thread again.
"Nightmares are just what you don't understand so your mind fears it. Trust me, my boy, perhaps we can come to an arrangement."
Arnold arrives in the kitchen. "A request for something with blueberries in, Miss Sloth. See what wonders you can concoct."
Fiven chuckles a bit, leans into the fox lady over the table and whispers, "perhaps you misunderstood me. I am peoples nightmares" he leans back and in his quiet voice says, "so what shall I call you?"

"That's all for now, it was very good, thank you." Fiven replied to Arnold
