Penelope smiled as he admitted that it was better than he had been expecting. She knew he likely still missed the outer villages so having him like different spots of the inner kingdom was slightly important to her. He had decided to make the inner kingdom his home on her behalf after all. The knight leaned her elbows against them table as Naida chimed in and she gave a nod of agreement. Having tried drinks from both the outer villages and the inner kingdom, she knew it was safe to say that he'd be able to tell quite the difference. 

As the girl came over to take their orders, she waited for her turn to speak before ordering a cider as well. Once the wench walked off to fulfill their orders, Penelope glanced around the tavern, enjoying the lively atmosphere for a moment before Naida spoke up again. 

"Gods it's been forever since I've gone here!" Naida exclaimed. She grinned at Penelope. "I think the last time I came here was with you and Olivia..." The princess got an excited gleam in her eyes as an idea formed. "We should all play a drinking game!"

"No thank you." Penelope said shaking her head. 

"What? Why not?" Naida pouted. "Usually you're up for it."

"I just prefer not to be stumbling through the snow on our way back." Penelope replied with an amused smirk. While that was a small part of it, she also wanted to keep her wits about her. Naida was always trying to push her and Crow together and she knew it'd be risky to get drunk around the two of them while they were still hiding their relationship. 

"Aww come on it's suppose to be a celebration! I know you didn't get to really celebrate last night what with the speech and hosting." Naida pleaded. "It'll be fun! Plus we have a new player." She smirked as her gaze shifted over to Crow.
