The aforementioned bard went by the name of Renria, and she was known to often drop by unexpected in this inn and sing of her exploits, seeking coin. At the moment she was singing the tale of "Renria the Halfling versus the Thousand Giants" a gripping saga starring herself, of course, and telling of the time that she defeated 1000 giants with nothing but a loaf of bread. Maybe it was a bit of an exaggeration, and there were only 10 of them, and they were dogs, not giants, but nobody here needed to know that.
