As Balgrim tapped the tall elf's armor another dawi appeared from the shadows and warned him about taunting the White Lion. The dwarf's mane was unmistakable and Balgrim took further comfort in knowing more dawi populated the small tavern, even if it was a slayer.

[color=orange]"Ho there kin!"[/color] exclaimed Balgrim, giving the slayer a swift slap on his naked shoulder.

The elf chimed in and to Balgrim's surprise fired back at him with another insult. Balgrim had only ever met elves during his patrols and most often the interaction began and ended with either group telling the other to sod off. Meeting one in a much more relaxed environment proved amusing to him, and he looked forward to future bouts of insult tossing with this elf in the future.

[color=orange]"Really? I should think even the poshest Elgi would be overjoyed to wear my handsome skin as a cloak."[/color] 

Balgrim let out a loud laugh through the small tavern. [color=orange]"Well if you've done well enough to earn the respect of my kin perhaps I should watch my step."[/color] Balgrim looked down and took a hand to his bulging stomach that hung over his belt. [color=orange]"Easier said than done."[/color] he said and let out another loud cackle.

He tapped the elf's armor one final time and took a seat at a nearby table.
