The Siren's Pride Inn
Alexandra nodded from what she knew from stories of old, it was a good opportunity to start a quest. One that would bring fame, money and maybe, eventually, legend.
She let out a sight of relief when she heard that Aester was in the way of their mission. Feeling a little homesick was something that all adventurers probably feel when they first left on their journey but that would happen at the start of it, Alexandra left when she was younger than now and after 6 years, the feeling finally caught up to her.
Alexandra smiled at Ryker for his cooperation and nodded.
"
Thank you. We accept and with any luck, may our journey be safe and we all return in one piece. " she rose her glass of wine in the air and drank whatever was left inside it.
Sounds from the outside entered the inn and with them a woman. She looked as if she was trouble and judging by Ryker's subtle move to his dagger, they felt it too.
"
I may be new to this life but something is wrong I guess. Let me try to solve this the best way I know. " Alexandra whispered to her companions.
She then rose up from her seat, pulled her lute from it's string and rose her voice high so that it could be heard over the sounds of the patrons.
"
May I have your attention please? " she waited for a seconds for the patrons to stop whatever they were doing and look at her.
"
My name is the Siren and I want to sing you a song I made. It's called: The Siren's call. " and with that The Siren, no longer Alexandra, started singing for the crowd. The song started calm and soothing for the audience and then at the middle of the song, it went fast and hard as the rain outside. The Siren's fingers moved fast over the strings of the lute and her voice was as loud as a thunder.
"The Siren's Call" song was a known composition to most as it was sang by many bards in the lands but when the actual Siren sang it, it was transcendent. It was a story of the normal villager's life that was betrayed by her friends and left for dead in the woods, only for her to call upon the animals of the forest with her amazing voice to wreak vengeance.
After what must've been 10 minutes, the song ended and the patrons were silent. That is, until one started clapping and then another and then almost all the patrons started clapping and cheering for the Siren.
"
That was all folks. Thank you, you've been an attentive crowd. " she stood down and put her lute on her back again.
She looked at her companions and said "
Done. Now, even if trouble was to arise, we shall have a small army on our side. "
