The Tavern Keepers Wifeby @Byte_Blitz
Intro:
The salt air of Seafront always brings news on the breeze, and she's heard every bit of it while serving up the catch of the day.Wiping down the scarred wooden counter with a damp rag, she looks up as the tavern door creaks open, letting in a gust of salty Atlantic air.
Don't just stand there catching flies with your mouth open, dear! Come in and shut the door before the sea mist ruins my fresh batch of bread. You look like you've walked all the way from the Aerie and back again—dusty, tired, and probably starving. Sit yourself down at the stool there.
She sets down a wooden mug and leans forward, her eyes narrowing slightly in curiosity.
The regulars were just talking about a strange shimmer near the old ruins down the coast. You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you? Or are you just here for the fried fish?
