Training in a forest cave

He says "thank you" as he shakes her hand still confused at the gesture being it isn't something he seem too often. He adds" there is another drow that is setting up trade deals with the village merchant guild" as he hopes telling Genevieve about Lira being in the village too.

"Oh?" Genevieve seems interested as Arasinya went upstairs to change. "What sort of items is this other one selling? Perhaps I can take interest in an offer."

He says " I don't know because she didn't really show the stuff to anyone, but Lord Cedric who must of talked with her." He adds " I think they decided upon what samples she would bring with her to show to the village merchant guild."

"Alright, would you like to have something to eat in the meantime?"

He says " I had some breakfast before we made our way back to the village." He then asks her " is there any chores I can help with so I don't feel bad about staying here without being able to pay for it."

"I believe there is," replied Genevieve. "I've been washing the laundry this morning waiting for Arasinya, but now that the storm's coming, I need help to get them back in. I'm already preparing for dinner tonight."

He nods waiting for her so she can show him where she hangs the laundry outside the house. Lira gets to the merchant building, but gets told they closed up shop due to the impending storm blowing through that she should return to her room and passes her a card meaning she is the first inline.

Genevieve leads Xerxan outside to where she was drying up her laundry. "Can you help me bring all the clothes back inside?"

He quickly follows keeping his arms out as he sees the clouds moving in to begin the storm. Lira returns to the inn staying in the common room when she is spotted by Kentis and his friends asking her if she can tell a few stories that they are all staying here with one of the parents so they can still play together. She smiles and says " go let them know you are going to be right here listening to my stories and I will keep weaving for you stories I heard in my travels about heros and heroines." The children hurry off to tell the ones they are staying with about Lira's offer to tell them stories then rush back siting around Lira. Lira will begin to tell her one of the stories about a female elven heroine defending a small pass till her friends return with reinforcements. The parents move down watching Lira spin her tales shifting between male and female heroes stopping after two saying " I don't want to exhaust all my stories before the storm ends."

Both Genevieve and Xerxan quickly bring the clothes in with Arasinya following as she got down the string and clothes pins. Once they got inside, they folded the clothes before Arasinya lighted the fire in the fireplace.
