Mr. Dark stares at the cow...too stunned by its presence before him to make much of a reaction. His eyes glance up at the crow with a suspicious glare. He looks around for an owner of some sort keeping an eye on the animal. He finally decides to wander up cautiously....giving the crow the evil eye as he does so, and eventually when he gets close enough, he reaches out to pat the cows whiskered face...unbothered by wether the crow decides to leave or not. "Well....fancy meeting you here. Looks like you've been adorned with treasure and crowned a queen. Glad to see you're making out well. But....who's been looking after you?"

Well gentlemen, and milady, Hansel says cheerily to the two former and one new companion, I propose the four of us set out at first light. For this evening, however, although I feel My Lady's blessing resting upon me once more, it would be remiss of me not to perform an adequate rite of devotion. In lieu of a dedicated sanctuary, Tymora's shrine will have to suffice. Thank you all, and good evening.
And with that Hansel takes his leave (and his toiletries) and makes his way out of the inn toward the shrine to spend a few hours in holy grooming...
(Perhaps the cleric of love will arrive at the shrine in time to see Mr Dark petting a cow wearing a garland and saying something about a 'queen' and 'making out'... or perhaps he won't.)
After showing everyone the map, Auric rolls it up and says, ”Capital idea! Let us begin on the morn, our noble intent to slay the foul creatures who threaten the populace.”
Finishing his the last of his drink and food, Auric is soon headed to his room for an early bedtime.

With cheery chime, Hansel makes his announcement. He addresses his companions, new and old, with promise of a rendezvous. The four of them at the crack of dawn. And without skipping a beat, the cleric departs his blessings upon his companions and respectfully takes his leave, wishing them all well.
Exiting the Inn towards the Shrine, the holy man witnesses a man in dark clothing petting a cow, wearing garland and a golden bell, saying something about a 'queen' and 'making out'...
Mr. Dark
The crow's body moves not, only the eyes meeting Mr. Dark's stare. There didn't seem to be a person keeping an eye on the cow. In fact, there wasn't really any one around, except perhaps a patron or two coming or going from Stonehill Inn.
Still munching on her grass, the cow nuzzles into the man's pat while the crow remains perched comfortably unmoving from her head. It was when Mr. Dark started talking to the cow, commenting on her treasures and having been crowned a queen that the crow would squawk with a bounce. "Nova!" The voice was of a boisterous young woman.
And it didn't stop there, continuing enthusiastically when Mr. Dark asks his final question. "All the women who independent (Hey)" Suspiciously mimicking lyrics, of a famous bard act, the bird hops to spin in a circle atop the cows head and flutters their wings. "Throw your hands up at me -"
Glint. Something falls from beneath the crows wings.
"Moo." The cow moos herself with a jerk of her head. Having finished her mouthful, she then dips her head to graze at the grass at his feet.
Paused, the crow makes eye contact with Mr. Dark, quirking their head, then looks down.
Glint. Within the bovines next bite of delicacies, was none other than his coin! If he doesn't snatch it from the grass, the next time he'd see it is out her...
Auric
Glass mugs clink in the tavern, spraying dark ale on the bar. Moving out of the way before the spray as he's calling it a day, Auric was not far behind Hansel. He finishes his drink and food, gathers his studies, stationery and of course the map, before retiring himself.

Stacey
She was off for the night, right? Yes... Pretending she doesn't hear Toblen calling their name to clean up the mess, Stacey nonchalantly whistles and side steps to hide themself behind Xenophon's massive figure, deflating a little from Hansel and Auric calling it a night. She was just getting started! Feigning pouting with arms crossed, the redhead 'blows raspberries' with their lips as she rests back against the Azure dragonborn's back. After some brief silence, she breaks it. "So big guy, it's just you an' me," She smirks. "What'll it be?"
Mr.Dark calmly reaches out with his foot and places it over the coin before it can be gobbled up. "Nuh-uh...no you don't. That is mine thank you very much." He then uses leans over, and moves his foot so he can gather his coin back up. He gives it a flick and catch before tucking it into a small pocket. He glances at the crow thoughtfully, "Nova eh. Hmmm."
Still thoughtful, his hand flicking the corner of the card he holds in his hand still, he turns around and sees.....none other than the golden glowing overly-clean and adeptly amorous man known as Hansel striding his way. He quickly tries to spin away before he's noticed, but even as he does so...eye contact is made. Still he turns, and facing away for a moment, he sighs and takes a moment to collect himself. He glances briefly over at the shrine, "Oh....how lucky." He sets a big smile on his face and turns back, "Hansel! What are the chances of meeting you here once again? Things have been left that should not have been left. We have work to do. Where are the others?"

Hansel paused out of sight for a moment, it being against his principles to interrupt an intimate moment between two consenting creatures, no matter how unorthodox the pairing. But the motions and subsequent words of the human figure, as well as the familiarity of his voice, confirmed that the participants were neither amorous nor unfamiliar, and so he strode forwards to make his greeting.
And a good evening to you to! Hansel replies eagerly, convinced of Mr Dark's sincerity. Indeed it it fortuitous that our chance meeting should occur here at Tymora's shrine. I'm glad to see another familiar face, and truly I have just departed the company of our dragonborn friends, who are eager to resume the quest. In fact, we plan to depart tomorrow to vanquish some enthralled orcs, I believe. I do hope you will join us...and then glancing at the cow and the crow, he adds: ... that is, if you aren't already engaged?

Mr.Dark flicks the corner of the card in his hand with a nervous twitch as Hansel speaks. "Orcs. How lucky. I believe they are residing at the Falcon’s Hunting Lodge? Yes. I'm quite done here. Let us proceed first thing in the morning." He turns to the crowned cow, "Best you stay out of this one. I know you were good taking down orcs at the farm, but...I think we'll try to do this one alone."

Hansel's eyes sparkle in unfeigned delight at Mr Dark's acceptance. With the gambler's skills, and those of the redheaded barmaid (whatever they may be) to replace the absence of McScath and his butler, their hopes of success were much brighter. As Mr Dark speaks to the cow once more, Hansel begins preparations for his restorative ritual, setting up several small mirrors in an arc, all facing inwards, in front of the shrine. Modesty is not a word in Hansel's vocabulary, and he promptly sheds his tunic, remaining clad in only a set of scandalously insufficient undergarments. Oblivious to the attention of either the cow, the crow, or the gambler, Hansels begins oiling his exposed skin, intoning the words of a prayer to Sune in the process. As he works the lacquer around the muscled contours of his body, he struggles to reach a spot in the small of his back and turns, holding out the bottle, and asks: Mr Dark, would you be so kind as to... Hello...?

Mr.Black's back can be seen across the street in the Inn's doorway, just a moment before the door slams shut behind it...leaving Hansel holding out a bottle towards a cow that eyes him, then the bottle, then Hansel once more......it's eyes lock on his, as it slowly chews it's cud.

Done chomping on it's chud, the cow blinks. The crow atop it's head looks as if it exchanges a look with unabashed cleric. The cow then tilts it's head towards Hansel, and her tongue reaches out to lick his back.
Inn
The door slams behind Mr. 'Black''s back. Now inside the inn, he catches glimpse of a golden dragonborn retiring upsides for the night. Meanwhile near the bar, a large familiar topaz dragonborn stands back to back with the redheaded barmaid. She seems to be hiding from Toblen who stands scratching his head at the bar.
"Oh. We're not headin' out now?" Xenophon was mildly disappointed at the groups decision to call it a night and confront the orcs tomorrow, when it seemed like he had just got back and reunited with the gang for one more job. At least Stacey wasn't heading to bed just yet. "Well, how about we have a few drinks and get to know each other a bit better before we call it a night?"

"Sounds like an idea." While Xenophon couldn't see Stacey behind him, he could hear the smile in their tone. He then feels their hand grip his wrist and start to lead him outside, swiping some liquor from behind the counter on the way out. When the door closes behind them, she lets out an exhale. "I'd be put to work if I lingered in there." She pops off the top of the bottle and takes a deep swig, feeling the heat of the alcohol splash their throat and warm their belly. Stacey would then hand Xeno the bottle for him to help himself. Then with a jerk of their head, she leads him around back of the establishment to a little alcove. "I hide out here from time to time. Usually to nap." She admits, plopping themself down. "And gaze at the stars at night."

Everyone
With our adventurer's eventually settling in on their own terms for the rest of the evening. Night falls away under a clear sky filled with stars, eventually making way for morning as the sun begins to rise. Today the sky shines bright and the birds chirp, singing the groggy awake. The smell of freshly baked bread, sizzling meats and cooked eggs waft about the Stonehill Inn as the chef prepares meals for the early risers.
Hansel is one of the first to appear, eager to present his perfect person before as many people as possible. He is once again impeccably dressed and groomed, with his ornate and suspiciously phallic-shaped wooden cudgel dangling from his hip. The coiffured cleric takes a seat in the center of the dining area, requests from Toblen enough food for the group, and then waits for his companions to arise and arrive, beaming at any and all who enter the inn. Although up early, Hansel is unhurried and happy to wait - far be it for a devotee of Sune to disturb those who linger in the bedchamber!

Mr.Dark appears at the top of the stairs and looks down upon the bustling Inn. He has dark sunken eyes and looks drawn, obviously having slept poorly. His eyes travel to his companions and he seems on the verge of flight for a moment....his hand clutched around something tightly that glints with a golden shine through his fingers. Then the smell of frying ham meets his nose and he sniffs eagerly at it for a moment....and then something in his stomach gurgles. With his resolve found, he takes a deep breath and walks quietly down the stairs, his backpack on his back, his gear ready to go. He nods to the group as he finds a spot at the table, putting his bag to the side and pushing his sword out of the way so he can sit. He takes a quick look around for an unexpected cow, but seeing the coast is clear, puts his hand up, "Um....breakfast over here when you have a chance!"
He glances at the map that Auric has out, "Well friends...how are we getting to this orc infested forest?"

Laying out the map for all to see, Auric says, “Prithee harken unto the path illustrated before thee here. Should we hither forthwith, orcish blood shall darken the soil ere the sun departeth this even.”

A tired, disheveled Toblen makes eye contact with Mr. Dark when he makes a call for his breakfast. The man has bags under his eyes from being up late and early again this morning due to having to fill a sudden labour shortage. Of course, the entrepreneur doesn't turn down an order and nods in acknowledgment.
"Ordering!" A sharp voice calls out at the cooks window. It seems to belong to the hand holding a tray just high enough to clear the counter. "Three pork combos, extra bacon on the side, two chili cheese samplers, a basket of liver an' onion rings, a catch of the day an' a steak cut in the shape of a trout." The voice belonging to a stout female halfling rhymes out while filling a tray of drinks. "You got all that, honey?"
From the kitchen, she's met with the voice of a large muscled female half orc. "Three oinkers wearing pants, plate of hot air, basket of Grandma's breakfast an' change the bull to a gill," Chop. "Got it."
The halfling struts out to deliver ordered refreshments around the establishment. She passes by the table accompanied by Mr. Dark, Hansel and Auric. "Anythin' else for ya luvs?"
”Tea, black, and an eclectic assortment of berries and nuts, if thought wouldst,” replies Auric. Looking at the map again, he plans their route for the day, impatient to get going.

While locked in his concentration on plotting the route, Auric is quickly served his tea and a special trail mix made with locally sourced ingredients from the farms just outside Phandalin. The scholar is able to plan their route without much difficulty and would be able to lead the party to their desired destination confidently and efficiently.
Meanwhile, little did Hansel, Auric and Mr. Dark know, Stacey was waiting outside the establishment. She'd spark some rolled herb, take a deep inhale and lean herself back against the building before exhaling. The redhead did not want to get caught up in the breakfast rush. The smell of freshly baked bread really did smell good though. She was good with a little wake and bake, mooching some munchies off the boys whenever they meandered out.
