Indeed , make mine a large one!

Nothing must be said to Kalvos about the shadow demon, it is a powerful creature and the queen's elite would wish to have control of it. For now we must keep quiet and protect eve, the Ice Queen might try to take her to get to Xibes.

she must stay here at the tavern so that there is always someone to hand to protect her, she should be safe in her little feather bed up in the beams

Eve has a permanent home here now, up in the beams of the tavern. Did anyone see who delivered the message? It was pinned to the door by a dagger of ice. I'm glad it did not melt and smear the ink.

Xibes does not need our help after all, although I've sent that ranger after her! She is far more powerful than any of us realised, let's hope Grimney never has cause to go to war with her kind.

Still no sign of Kalvos, and Darius has yet to return with Silas. Probably drinking and gambling in every port he stops at. Yes, drinks for you all, now that we can relax.

I hope we can relax Urat, but I fear there is more to come. It is strange that Kalvos has not returned yet, let us hope that no ill has befallen him !
No wine tonight , fire water I think !

Maybe we should wake eve up and get her to eat a little? She's had a very hard day for a little fairy and needs to keep her strength up.

I worry for Kalvos too, the assassin who he was tracking is a dangerous man. He should have been back by now.

As for Silas and Darius, if either of them have a tobran left by the time they arrive I will be most surprised.

I'll put some honey biscuits and a thimble of milk next to her bed, she can have them when she wakes

Yes, that will be a comfort to her Gwenllian. She will get all the care she needs and I shall fetch her anything she asks for.

Yes, the man that Kalvos is tracking is extremely dangerous, the description I've been given is that of a psychopath named Kursk. Can't be sure, but his reputation is far beyond bleak, a barren and empty soul so I've heard.

Yes, I am a little worried that Silas and Darius combined may cause a few problems here and there once the brandy and rum start to flow.

Eve looks so peaceful. Agreed, that it is best to let her sleep, she knows that she is safe, and her dreams should be more soothing this time I hope.
