Kat looked outside to see that any light that might have lingered from the day had long since evaporated into the night. Hel was probably growing more and more irritated by the minute. She spared a glance at the dwarf who had just entered (was he a dwarf? He seemed a bit tall for that.) to evaluate him and then turned back to the table. Reaching out, Kat grabbed four silver coins from inside the purse and slipped them into her pocket. 

"Keep the room," she said to the older dwarf. "I won't be needing it." She turned her attention then to her new traveling companions. "Whatever horses you get, make sure they're the calmest you can find," she warned. Kat might not know much about horses, but she knew most animals didn't take too well to massive carnivorous beasts like Hel. "Have fun making friends with each other."

With that, Kat turned away and started making her way to the door.
