Saria looked over the poster, slowly making out the words. Reading is tough, as she has had a very small amount of practise, usually involving observation of someone reading outloud. The poster read:

[i]HELPERS NEEDED
If willing to escort me, ask for Kudelia at Highwayman's Head Tavern, located near the southern gate. Be prepared for a long and rough hike, and be willing to protect me from danger.[/i]

Saria grinned, showing off pointy teeth that everyone thinks means 'DANGER!' Moving out of the alley, she walked southwards in as unharmful a manner as she could, not wanting to scare anyone she passes.

Arriving at the tavern about 30 minutes later, Saria admired the artwork on the sign with the tavern's name. It wasn't particularly nice art, but Saria thought it was. A bit old looking, the building wasn't the best in the city, but Saria guessed that was the point of meeting here since the person who placed the posters wanted to escape the city safely.

Saria stepped inside, where there were three customers quietly munching on food and drink. Two of them, when they saw her, nervously payed and left. But the third, a girl, looked at Saria seemingly hopeful.

Saria approached the girl, and said in her quiet voice, "I'm looking for Kudelia. Are you her?"
