He then looked to his squire. "Make yourself useful will you... Go get me a glass of elven wine,..." He then looked to there guests with a hand stretched out.." What will you three have?..." He asked. He remembered that he placed a silence spell on the pirate lady. "Spiced rum for her,..." He waited for their responses. The squire looked to them as well making a mental note of what they would want. Once they gave an answer he went to the barkeep and made a request and paid for the drinks. He then returned to the table handing out the drinks.

   "Times like these I am glad I am a paladin of Corellan... I can indulge myself in some luxuries..." He said. He then looked up... "As soon as one or two more people join us we will begin. Eat, sleep, drink, it will be paid for by the order." He said. He leaned back in his chair staring into the goblet. The red wine reflected his features. He looked to his squire. "Daniel,... You will have to stomach your fear. We will be in serious fights that you might have to take part in yourself. If you are to be a knight like myself." He then gestured to Ramara, Derix, and Inyata. "I can't protect you all the time and you shouldn't expect them to either."
