The Travellers
"We just want a place for the night" the traveller said. "Then we'll be on our way in the morning".
The traveller was a tall man, tall for the Humans at least. His shoulders stood straight, and rigid, like a soliders. His armor was old and battered, it was clear that he had been travelling a long time to get here, and it may not have been a peaceful road. His hood shadowed most of his face from the dim torches that lit the seedy tavern, but his chin revealed the cold face of a man who has taken life. The traveller's voice was soft and low, slightly raspy from too much yelling. The voice was tired and wary, but was disarming enough to earn the trust of most people.
"I know your type," the inkeeper said. A short goblin who's eyes never trusted anyone. "You come in here and you say 'oh one night, please sir, its just for one night' and you come and bring all of your troubles with ya. You start fights, you break my things, and then by the time everything is over, you cause more in damages then you payed for a place to sleep. No sir, not this time. You will just have to find somewhere else".
The traveller sighed. "Look. No fights. We just want a place to sleep and to rest our horses, we have business up north, we will leave before sunrise", he said.
"I dont know what it is about you stranger, but I trust you. But i want double! Double or you have to go somewhere else".
"Doubles fine"
"Ok, so lets see" the inkeeper flipped through is book haphazardly. "Oh yes, your name?"
"You dont need a name"
"Ha!" the inkeeper shreaked. "Dont need a name? Now I dont know what you've heard, but this inn does not host murderers and thieves. I dont know what kind of establishment you think im running here"
