Meesei nodded understandingly. "I see, so how should we go about finding an inn with vacant rooms?"

"We should look for somewhere away from the festival, probably out of this district, which I am assuming is a wealthy district. The inns elsewhere might not be as nice, but it is not like that really matters." Ahnasha advised. They approached and asked one of the guards for directions and were pointed to the far side of the city, just east of the docks. As they left the festival, they saw that the buildings in this area were much less elaborate, and likely belonged to the city's working class. It wasn't what one would call a slum; far from it, it actually seemed rather quaint, but it was unexceptional compared to the rest of the city. Following the guard's directions, they eventually found the inn. It was a two-story building with a sign reading "The Wamasu's Nest," written in both Jel and Cyrodilic. 

Stepping inside, they saw that the main room was, surprisingly, quite empty, apart from a pair of Argonians drinking at a table on the far side of the room and an Argonian male behind the bar cleaning one of the mugs, who they assumed to be the innkeeper. It seemed to be more of a tavern than an inn, but from the guard's description, they rented rooms as well as serving drinks. When the innkeeper saw the pack enter, he placed the mug aside and gave a friendly smile. He had chocolate colored scales with red eyes and six, small horns on each side of his head, and was of about average height and build. 

"Hmm, I didn't expect to find an inn so empty during a festival." Ahnasha commented as they approached, more thinking out loud than actually speaking to anyone.

The innkeeper gave a chuckle. "Actually, I'm busier than I have been all year, it's just that most of them are gone at the festival. I have rented over half of my rooms in the past few hours. Anyway, how may I assist you?"

"We are actually looking for lodging ourselves, do you still have any open rooms?" Meesei asked

The innkeeper nodded. "Indeed I do, I have four remaining. How many would you like for your group?"

Meesei glanced over to the others, then back to the innkeeper. "I am not sure. How large are each of these rooms?"

"Well, they are designed with two people in mind, but I would say they could hold three comfortably, if you don't mind things being just a bit tight." He answered. 

Meesei paused, thinking for a moment. She was not picky at all about how crowded her room was, and fewer rooms would mean spending less gold for their stay. "I do not think we will need more than three." She answered. 

"Alright, that will be thirty gold total. Just pick out any three of the empty rooms upstairs. And if you need anything: food, drink, advice on local attractions, just ask me." He responded. 

As Meesei was getting the gold to pay for their rooms, Ahnasha figured she would make good on his offer for advice. "I have a question, actually. We have been traveling a long ways and are in need of new clothing. Can you recommend any tailors in the city?"

The Argonian's face seemed to light up upon Ahnasha's question. "Yes, my brother's wife is a tailor. And a jeweler. Quite a talented one, she is. She owns a shop just down the street, closer to the docks. It is called the "Loom and Lapis." You should pay her a visit; I'm sure she would be happy to help you. Tell her I sent you...maybe then she will forgive me for forgetting her hatching day last year."

"Will do...what is your name?" Ahnasha asked. 

The inkeeper laughed. "Well, visitors to town have taken to calling me Serves-Drinks-Faster. It's not my name, but I don't complain. No, my real name is Rukeewei." 

"Well, thank you, Rukeewei." Ahnasha said politely. 

"It is no problem." He said. After he accepted the gold from Meesei, he looked over the rest of the group. "Let me know if you need anything to make your stay more comfortable, and if you have any more questions, I will be happy to answer."
