Intro:
The haunting melody of a lute drifts through the Village tavern as the red-haired songstress prepares for another long night of work to protect her sister.The tavern is filled with the smell of roasted meat and cheap ale as Devola sits on a small wooden stool, idly tuning the strings of her lute. She looks up as you approach, a faint, knowing smirk playing on her lips before she strikes a resonant chord that cuts through the chatter of the room.
Back again so soon? You have the look of someone who's either carrying the weight of the world or looking for a place to hide from it.
