"What a gathering we've got ourselves here. Well, I guess people do like to gather. Might as well introduce myself as well. I'm Brorth of Ar... ah, nevermind. Just Brorth. Indeed, a shelter from the cold and a hot meal would be great. Would you know of a place where I can get theoe in this town?"
Safice seeming some how missed the few others that have gathered around “Ah yes, there’s an Inn down the road. I could take you guys there. I am Safice Mountsong, just a retired soldier from the sword coast. Welll anyway let me lead you to the inn to get out of this cold.”

Svrf’s memory is not what it was, so he consults the notes and small map he has sketched in his journal. Scowling, he tugs his goggles up onto his forehead, and utilizes a small hand lens to read. His vision, at least when it comes to reading up close, is also not what it once was. “Well I, fer one, am not goin’ t’any establishment requirin’ any farther Up’ill Climb. Dinev’s Rest it is!”
The herbed chocolate concoction seems to have effectively relieved the congestion in the gnome’s cavernous nasal passages, for better or worse, and he quickly produces a plaid handkerchief, seemingly from nowhere. The sound from his ample nose as he blows, is such that one might expect an army to ride forth, or an avalanche to bury the fortress town! But no, apart from a brief look of alarm from the halfling sentry, no such calamity ensues.
Without further ado, he trudges toward the lights of the inn, but what he finds is not what he had hoped for. ”Svphhh... What’s this?!”
"A pleasure to meet you all."the kobold bows professionally.
"The inn sounds good to me." Cocoa says, trotting behind the group. When they order food and drinks for themselves, Cocoa can be seen scribbling things down in a notebook, in (mostly) clear handwriting. He takes his time eating, treasuring each bite between making notes (indeed, for someone like Cocoa, staying and eating in the inn is a rare treat).
When the waiters and barkeep aren't looking, he finds a dash of salt and pepper from his pack to flavor the meal a bit more.
At the south end of town is Caer-Dineval’s inn, a drafty old building with boarded-up windows and a crooked weathervane shaped like a rearing dragon. The place has been out of business for almost a year. Although, strangely, the lights are on
"Closed? I should have stopped in the previous town. I thought a smaller town will have a cheaper tavern, not a closed one!" He takes a stone out of his pocket and looks at it. For all, it looks like any regular stone. "This is not what I expected!" He pockets the stone back. He doesn't bother to explain why he was talking to a stone. "Well, any other suggestions?" he asks those around.
“Well there is a light inside, maybe we can get some shelter. Although i doubt there is food to get or coin to earn here tonight.” Welfyx replies slightly disappointed before he approaches the inn to knock. He puts one hand in his pocket and mumbles something while he gets close to the door.
"I just want to get somewhere warm. It was a long and cold journey. Maybe let's warm up first and then we can file a report with the mayor or the guards."
Gae-Al follows, although he is well aware of where to go. No point in starting a bad reputation and besides, he might beed the help as much as it galls him.
Svrf automatically falls into step, at the rhythmic beating of the drum. He starts to reach for his pandean pipes, but to the relief of all who have heard him play, the gnome decides his fingers are too cold to remove his mitts.

Maybe next time.. you should wait for the DM before you enter an inn lol
(My bad, sorry)
Cocoa squints at the old inn building. "Weird, there aren't usually lights on, no? It's supposed to be closed."
He treads up to one of the front walls, pressing his ear up to the door - perhaps there's someone talking inside that he can hear?

“Well there is a light inside, maybe we can get some shelter. Although i doubt there is food to get or coin to earn here tonight.” Welfyx replies slightly disappointed before he approaches the inn to knock. He puts one hand in his pocket and mumbles something while he gets close to the door.
Svirf raps upon the door with his staff. “Open yer doors! ‘‘Tis no’ summer out ‘ere! Most irregular...”
If there is still no response, the disgruntled gnome begins looking for alternate ways into the establishment.
”U’less one o’ye feels strongly ‘bout goin’ somewhar else?”
“Latterlig. If this place has been closed for almost a year, then why bother with it? Is there no other inn?”
"I just want to get somewhere warm. It was a long and cold journey. Maybe let's warm up first and then we can file a report with the mayor or the guards."
“Ver’ well, lead t’way!”
Svrf reluctantly follows the consensus, and heads for a more welcoming establishment, allowing others more acquainted with the town to take the lead.
Safice would try to recall where he could find warmth in the town, since he's lived here for a while.

Felix Windfall(Human-V Lv.7 Rogue) killed in ToA, Vallan Houndstrider (Halfling Ghostwise Lv.1 Fighter) in DiANo need for a check, everyone knows the Uphill Climb Tavern
"Worry not, we can always head to the other tavern. Allow me to lead."
Cocoa the kobold marches ahead, waving to the others to follow as they travel up the uphill climb to the Uphill Climb.
Gae-Al follows, although he is well aware of where to go. No point in starting a bad reputation and besides, he might beed the help as much as it galls him.
Welfyx lingers for a few seconds outside the closed inn, to get his drum. He starts drumming a little joyful march and follows the others up the hill.
Svrf automatically falls into step, at the rhythmic beating of the drum. He starts to reach for his pandean pipes, but to the relief of all who have heard him play, the gnome decides his fingers are too cold to remove his mitts.
