Nothing from Cora so far, but I’ll go ahead and assume she agrees.
Tavern You all enter the tavern in single file, with Malyra following at the end. When you open the door, you relax as you breath in the comforting scent of alcohol and breath out the odor of fish guts. Cython’s tavern seems a little run down compared to others, but it is a fishing village after all. Some of the more noticeable issues include a slightly slanted bar and a few broken chairs and stools. You see it’s not very crowded. Most of the patrons don’t usually come at this hour, but, clearly, others will get drinks whenever they can. You see an entire corner of the tavern taken up by an average-sized half-elf, surrounded by a group of four or five men. He doesn’t seem very strong, but he’s definitely the center of attention. Just by looking at him, you can’t be entirely certain of what he does for a living.
Ethan stays close to Malyra as they enter, his eyes scanning the mostly-empty place. Even without a crowd he won't stray far from the Lady's side, wanting to protect her in case of trouble.
Cora agrees to come to the tavern, eager to help the group. She excitedly runs up to each and every person in the tavern, asking to them all rapidly in sequence:
"Hi! Are you Captain Rhond?"
"Hello Mister! Do you know where we can find a Mister Captain Rhond?"
"Hi there! Do you know Captain Rhond?"
(To the Barkeep) "(Mister/Miss) tavern owner? Hi! I was wondering if you knew Captain Rhond."
(To the group including the half-elf) "Excuse me, sirs! Sorry to bother you, but have you seen Captain Rhond?"
Zargaroth tries to get into a place where he can keep an eye on as many patrons at a time as possible. He watches out for weapons or other things that would indicate a danger for the group. Otherwise, he slightly raises an eyebrow on this display of oddness Cora just gave and waits for the response of everyone present to her questions.
(Important note: If any of them does know where he is and tells her/points her in the right direction, Cora won't ask the rest. She's hyper, not crazy (I think)).
Zadoris moves up to the bar, bows his head slightly in greeting and says, "A round for our group, something light if you have it."
He places down 3 gold gently, "and as our small friend asks, info on captain Rhond. No issues, he was just referred as someone that we could charter a ride with. Please and thank you."
Ethan You stay by Malyra’s side, scanning any possible threats in the tavern. There isn’t much danger in a fishing village like Cython, even if the men are drunk.
Cora You run around, attracting a lot of attention. It’s pretty clear that a peaceful village like Cython doesn’t usually see your kind of energy. When you get to the half-elf, he extends his hand. “Heard you were looking for Captain Rhond. Congratulations, you just met him.”
Eira As you follow the hyper Cora around, you get some looks from the few patrons that are in at this time of day. With that kind of eye contact, you might think they see you as responsible for the misbehaving, childish halfling.
Zadoris The bartender pours something in four glasses. He looks back up at Cora, clearly trying to tell if she’s even old enough to be in the tavern. You can see a quick shrug before he fills a fifth glass. He takes the gold pieces you’ve already put down, and says “That’ll be 17 more for you lot. And the kid’s already found him.” He points to the half-elf in the corner.
The hyper halfling shakes the half-elf's hand, then turns around and waves the party over. As she does so, she sees everyone staring and looks down at her feet.
"Sorry." she says, before turning to Rhond.
"Good to meet you, Captain Rhond. I'm Cora. My friends and I were looking to cross the sea and we were wondering if you could. I mean, you definitely could, but would you take us?"
Mara still followed the group and when Zargaroth entered the tavern he commanded her to keep an eye on the area and tell him when somebody else approaches the tavern. But Mara gets bored and annoyed by the fact that everyone seems to be having fun and she is excluded, so she flies off "hunting" for something smelly (rotten fish or something similar).
Zargaroth moves over to the bar, gives Zadoris a nod and takes one of the glasses. He stays there inconspicuously watching Rhond, holding his glass but not drinking from it.
Zadoris passes the drinks out to his friends and then casts a speculative eye at the group in the corner. He will hang back a bit and will join if needed otherwise let the others speak.
The half-elf smiles at Cora. “Don’t apologize for being full of life.” With a whisper, he adds, “Unlike just about everyone here.” He reverts to his usual tone. “As for the trip...how many of you are there?” Rhond scans the room to see who’s watching.
(I should get an inspirational poster or shirt with that, I like it.)
((I have a friend who constantly apologizes (going as far as apologizing for saying sorry too much). I shut her up with something similar to that and she made a quote out of it.))

Zadoris passes over the rest of the gold. "Must be nearly out if the light stuff is this expensive."
Btw what animal is Mara? You never said
Ethan will move over to the table as well. He waits for the Lady to take over, since this is her journey.
I think I did, she's a little owl.

"It would be the group of us here." Ethan says, nodding to the individuals of the group. "Plus the lady here..." he nods to their patron.
(I should get an inspirational poster or shirt with that, I like it.)
Cora perks up at the captain's encouragement, nodding when Ethan introduces the group.
