Dion would stir the slush with a metallic straw. Slowly the others would appear in the inn. It seems they might be doing this as a group after all. "Yeah she's pretty ok." Dion would cheekily say as Guritag introduced herself. His silvery eyes would pass over all of them as he did a head count. Seems like there was no one new here that had arrived. Once assured that they were already here he would speak.

"Alright, I'll keep it short and simple for you all. I'm working on behalf of the Arcanium and am looking for some aid in investigating. the forest. Helping you out will net you some pay. It'll be decent since this is pretty dangerous. Additionally I'll be giving aid in ID'ing stuff. Given the background of the forest, it's safe to assume there's plenty of stuff that's cursed or holding something unpleasant in it and I can help in dispelling. Anyway, It's your choice to take the offer; I'll be leaving in the morning so meet up here if you're joining me. Any questions?"

There'd be a barmaid hovering around their periphery. Dion was aware of her, but was focused on pitching his proposition. He was also caught looking at Micah funny when he said the moon was watching them. Truthfully he had no idea how cohesive whatever team from these randos he could pull together. He was hoping their desire to not die horribly and greed would create some mutual interest in working together and that it would sort itself out. Rita would beat him to the punch in asking about rumors. Instead he would say, "Sure, how about two more beers?" He might as well get some drinks in before the bar closed.
