Susan took the flask and shook it a little. About half full. If it truly contained Elvish drink, he must havee had it for quite some while. Elvish...she had been so cut off from her kind for so long..she gingerly took a sip of the flask and stifled a grimace. It was Elvish, all right, but coarse, like something made by Men. She swallowed what she had in her mouth and handed it back with a smile. She glanced around, noticed the armless chair currently sitting empty by the fireplace, and had an idea.
"Tell me, do you know any stories?"
"Stories?"
She indicated the chair. "Yes, stories you can tell the patrons of the Inn. That would certainly break the ice!" She smiled winningly.
