Excerpt
Whent looked up, startled from his cleaning work as three men banged the door open and strode into the tap room.
“My name is Haran,” one said and gestured to the two behind him. “This is Foss and Iayn. We need ale and food and our horses stabled and fed for the night.”
“Hurry up there,” Iayn said, sliding a chair noisily across the boards. “We’ve ridden hard.”
“Of course, of course,” Whent said hurriedly and ducked around the bar. He filled three tankards, tipping the keg forward to drain what was left. “Where have you come from, sirs?”
He placed a tankard in front of each. Friendly chat was often the best way to deal with men carrying good steel and the potential for violence.
