He nods "Probably in around 10 minutes...."
Mithris nods. "I'm not sure if I have a runic for the place you're going."
"Hmm... I think probably Havengrad today... If you need one, I have a 2nd"
"I think I have one left for there."
"Alright... We can go whenever youre ready, then"
"I'm going to go check on E, first. I'll be back soon."
He nods "Alright. See you then!"
Mithris looks around for E.

Mithris walks over. "How are you doing?"
"Im doing alright. How are you?"
"I'm well. Kalnor and I going to go leave to sell, soon."
"Alright. Good luck. When you get back, I have something... Interesting I should show you both"
"I look forward to that. I hope you're well while we're away."
"Thanks. You, too"
Mithris nods and goes back over to Kalnor. "I'm ready."

Solanar comes downstairs for the first time in like months.
Thirteen, who has been writing lesson plans for Ares's wizard training, looks up. "I met you in Sigil!"
"Um, you did?"
"I think so, or maybe that was that other sun elf paladin. There's a lot of sun elf paladins, you know. Well, I'm Thirteen, evoker and teacher in wizardry." Thirteen decides not to mention that he's also a necromancer.
Solanar smiles "I'm not your average sun elf paladin. Nice to meet you, I'm Solanar Thelandriss."
Solanar sees a newcomer to the tavern walk towards him, albeit a bit cautiously. This newcomer appears to be a Drow, with pale silver-blue hair, forest green eyes, and charcoal black skin. There's a rapier on his left hip that appears to be made out of a single piece of moonstone. On his right hip, there's an ornate shortsword engraved in spiderweb and moon motifs, with a hand crossbow in a holster right under it. Slung over his shoulder is a blackened longbow that seems to be carved to look like a pair of dragon wings. On his back, over the rich, forest green cloak he's wearing, is a quiver full of arrows. His armor is a very ornate leather chestpiece with bands of engraved silver and mithral.
Walking along at his side is a most unusual creature: at first glance, it appears to be a massive black panther, standing about 5 feet at the shoulder. If Solanar takes more than a passing look at it though, it will become evident it is much more than just a panther; a pair of foot-long saber teeth extend from its mouth, a large mane of quills starts at the base of the creature's head and extends past its shoulders, and there's a single barb at the end of its tail which looks like it may be some form of stinger.
"Greetings. My name is Soldaer Torrae, Twilight elf of the Fírantín Forest in Hyperia, ranger and druid in the service of Eilistraee and Mielikki and chosen of Eilistraee. This," He gestures to the creature padding along at his side, "is Shade, a Saberbeast from the Feywild."

A figure steps out of the flames. He looks like a tiefling with pointed ears and jagged horns, a pair of wide wings sprouting from his back. He wears gold and black armor, and an onyx blade with the edge colored a scarlet hue hangs at his waist. His red skin is covered in blazing patterns that have a small sort of symmetry, and his eyes burn with orange flame. A confident smirk touches his face as he steps onto the ground.
