Buzdrem entered his room behind Ashana and unclipped both back sheaths, gently putting them on top of the wooden drawers as he walked into the room. Behind the door stood his Mountain Tank armour, gleaming and in great condition as he cared for it everyday. His doubled headed axe and maul stood either side of his armour. He knew he need to act quickly so he began with intent,

[color=gold]"Just take a seat on the bed and let me speak, you can talk when I finish but this is really important."[/color] He took a brief moment to collate his thoughts and then continued with purpose,

[color=gold]"I know what your plan was for the knight in armour and I suspect you have a similar plan for me. You may act like a simple whore but I believe it was merely that, an act. I've seen women of your kind before, but none like you. I want to help you make the right choices. What you do is very... useful for us. Now I'm not going to lay with you this night. You will sleep in this bed alone and I will make sure no harm comes of you. Also, to occupy myself, there's a barrel of beer. Please help yourself if you'd like."[/color] He approached the bed and said quietly to the young maiden,

[color=gold]"If you are the Ashana I've heard about, the Resistance could really use your skills. On the other hand, there's a bag of 100 silver under the bed, you could take it and leave. But if you stay and fight, not only can you fight the oppression of the King, but there's plenty of silver in it for you, plenty of gold, plenty of gems I can offer you. And not to mention, I think I can come up with some improvements to your arms and armour to make you even more deadly."[/color] He'd said his piece and was quite relieved he'd managed to get through it all. But just as he'd finished saying his speech, he heard the front door open and a women's voice shout from downstairs,

[color=DeepSkyBlue]"Soldiers on the way, not the resistance ones, the bigger assholes."[/color] Buzdrem looked shocked and then immediately sprung into action. He ran towards his armour and began putting in to.

[color=gold]"Ashana, before you go, I need you to run to the top of the stairs and tell me if the women who has just entered is a dwarf and what soldiers are there, if they're there yet,"[/color] he asked, not entirely sure he'd won her over. He had no idea why there was a female dwarf out here and why she was bringing city guards to the tavern. At least he hoped the were city guards. Reports had recently come in that elves were on their way to reinforce the city but they couldn't be here yet... could they? He brushed the thought aside, continuing to put his armour on, a job that was relatively time consuming, waiting for news from Ashana.
