The man gets bored, and turns his staff. He starts floating upwards, and he turns the staff entirely upside down. He is now walking on the ceiling.
*Now there is*
Horse hooves can be heard outside, they stop, and a few seconds later someone walks through the tavern door. They wear black riding clothes, and strapped to their side is a long spinal cord coiled like a whip. The man holds his head, tucked under his arm, walks over to the bar, and drops his head on the table.
"Hi there!" the man says, as he looks up/down at you.
The man rolls his head so he is facing the man on the ceiling, “Who are you?”
"My name is Furshi Garax, at your service!" he says as he bows.
“You are willing to serve me?”
"Serve you how?"
“I am the Dullahan, I hunt down those ready for Death, stealing away their souls before Death can catch them. Are you pledging yourself to the service of the ancient order of the Headless Horsemen, the soul hunters?”
"Um... No. it was an expression."
“Ah, I see. Are you a wizard of some sort?”
"Sorcerer."
“I see,” He grabs his head by his hair and lifts it up to better see him, his eyes glow red like flames, “A practitioner of the arcane arts, you wouldn’t happen to possess the ability to search the mind of someone and find their forgotten thoughts, would you?”
He looks proud of himself. "Indeed I do," he says. "Why, have you forgotten something?"
“You see, I was galloping through the woods on my way to terrorize someone late at night. I was holding my head up high over my neck, you know for dramatic effect, but I failed to spot a tree branch in my way. My head hit the sturdy branch quite hard, knocking my head out of my hands, and when I found my head again, I had found that I had completely forgotten who I was supposed to be hunting. So I galloped around the woods for a while howling and terrifying the local wildlife, hoping to come across my target by chance, but I never did. I can’t remember who I am supposed to be hunting, so I have just been wandering around trying to find a way to get my memory back and I eventually came across this tavern. Would you be able to recover my memory?”
"Well, that's quite the story. Let me see if I can help." He closes his eyes, and sits down on the ceiling. His eyes snap open, and he jumps to his feet. "I've got it!" he says, and floats down to the floor, landing on his feet. "Okay, so for this to work, you must let me enter your mind. There will be some pain, but it'll pass. Are you ready?"

Theren is sitting in a chair by the fire. He is half awake as he stares off into space.
Mars is outside sharpening his sword.
Meepo and Gibbles walk over to Theren, "Who're you?"
Theren looks at the two with his good eye. "Theren. Who're you two?"
"Meepo, the kobold inventor, and this is my best friend Gibbles the pseudodragon!"
"Pleasure to meet you both."
"So, wadda ya doin?"
"Just thinking."
"Bout what?"
"A lot happened recently and I needed to reflect on it."
"What happened?" He stops for a second, "Oh, and If you don't wanna tell me that's fine."
"Nah. I need to get it off my chest." Theren sighs before saying, "I watched a close friend of mine die. Couldn't do anything about it."
"I'm so sorry..."
Theren just nods. "At this point I've seen a lot in my life. Yet it still hurts every time I lose someone."
Meepo looks at Gibbles, "My friend says he understands how you feel."
Theren nods. "Pseudodragons are very intelligent beings."
"You know, I'm writing a encyclopedia of everything, is there anything you know that would be good to put in?"
Theren drums his fingers on his knees for a moment before saying, "Oh! Are you writing down weapons or just animals or something else?"
"I said EVERYTHING."
Theren pulls out a dagger with a red handle and a black blade. "Here. Cursed dagger."
"Can you tell me about it?"
"Sure. I got it about 5 years ago from a friend of mine named Sauron. The dagger looks normal until you use it. Blood usually goes into the blade and whenever you spin it blood will leak out." Theren says. He then spins the dagger for demonstration as a vortex of purple blood wraps around the blade.
(Yeah yeah. I speak. Don't act so surprised.)
