The two drunkards look at each other, chuckle and continue out the door. Han, you see them heading toward the farmer's gate, shambling along and laughing and shouting. As they near the farmer's gate, a small group of guards appear, and move to intercept the men. A brief conversation ensues, and the pair continue on out the gate, as the guards watch and stand by. Apparently they continue on, as the guards disperse as quickly as they arrived.
Back inside,the commotion of normal evening conversation quiets somewhat due to the averted confrontation, and when Dak pulled back his cloak, but things gradually pick back up. A group of 3 men dressed like farmers or laborers shuffle by your table, nodding and smiling at you, one man says, "nice work, have a good evening." You can tell by the general expressions that the inhabitants approve of your actions. Owenden approaches, with a smirk, and says "Well done, I'd thank you for not engaging those fools, and destroying my establishment. And sorry, Dak. Don't let their words sting you, you are a good man." "Anyway, if you don't mind my asking, you look like quite a group, adventurers, I presume? Will you be staying long? You should consider staying awhile, Daggerford could benefit from men of your abilities. You too, Dak."
Seeing your quizzical glances, he says "Oh, sorry. What I meant was that you would be a great addition to the militia. It's required of all who spend more than 2 weeks in the town. If you are interested, head to the barracks - you can find someone to speak to there. I'm sure they'd welcome you with open arms."
He smiles and continues: "If you'll be needing a room, I have 5 rooms open, small, but clean, they run 10 SP a night. That comes with a basin of hot water and some towels too in the morning and evening."
He starts to walk away to get more food and ale, and he looks back, almost absentmindedly, and says, "Oh, if you be in search of adventure, then you've come to the right inn. As you can see" motioning to the pillar, and the collection of gear and trophies on the walls, "we are the unofficial base of adventurers far and wide who come to these parts. And on the weekends, we tend to get more of the adventuring and travelling crowd, or any time when the caravan gate is open. You'll see more of that as it gets closer to fall... " and he says in a quieter tone, with a wink, "our fine ale sometimes loosens the tongues of those with leads on adventure or... opportunity." He smiles a knowing smile and goes back into the kitchen.
As this information sinks in, you all look around the table considering what has been said, and suddenly the moment is broken as the tavern door opens and 3 guards stride in, accompanied by an elderly man whom you recognize as having been in here until about 10 minutes ago. You see him pointing vigorously at your table and gesturing wildly. The guards look at him, at you, and then enter the inn, heading your way with a determined look on their faces.
