He was nearly invisible in the group's forest like legs. At least to him they were that way. It was one of the best parts of being a gnome who enjoyed not being seen. He quickly remembered the not so fun part of being a gnome in a town obviously not settled by his people, and that was the distance between everything. It was all so far away, maybe not for someone twice his height, but for a man of his stature and his less than 2 foot legs, it meant a lot of power walking to keep up and eventually he simply fell behind, not finding the effort to be worth his time. [Color=chocolate]"Ah, would it kill you guys to slow down? Walking so fast is so... not fun."[/color] the gnome complained. He watched the group walk on and had to jog to keep up, jostling the now overly tired hummingbirds awake once more. They were displeased but flitted about until he reached the tavern, where they quickly dispersed and announced his arrival. It had seemed he was the last of the group to arrive, at least he thought. There were so many humans around it was hard to pick the ones he knew from the crowd and that's when he saw it. An oasis in this desert of humans. Another gnome, and he seemed to be running the place. Thelin was ecstatic to say the least and climbed up a bar stool, his chin peeking over the edge of a table and he stared for a moment at this gnome. This reminder of home, his natural movements and emotions so pure, so happy. It was the greatest mix of homesickness and euphoria that even the most skilled of bards could not portray in song! He hopped up, now standing on his chair and forgetting he wasn't buying his own drink that night. [color=chocolate]"This gnome needs a drink! And it'd be a shame he drink without his kin!"[/color] he yelped. He was holding a few coins above his head and he watched as the gnome perked up and looked to him. The smiles shared across the room were one for the history books.
