“You’re the one who wanted to come here. You lead the way.” The pack leader told me.

“What is it exactly that we are looking for?’” Alysia asked cautiously.

“I’ll know when I see it. Keep your senses on alert.” I informed her and then headed for a spot that I hoped to get information.

That spot was none other than the inn. I knew it was cliché, but not only did information run through that building, but the innkeeper would be hard-pressed to run upon seeing us. There was another reason I wanted to go there as well. I walked into the building and was shocked to find the room was filled with foxkin. Nearly three dozen people were sitting with their backs to me, and at the front was a man who was standing up on a small table which he was using as his stage.

With Life Sense, I had seen a large gathering of people in this room. I hadn’t been certain what was going on. It appeared that I had crashed a town meeting in progress.

“Don’t mind us.” I declared. “We’re just here for a drink.”

I walked over to the bar, where the only remaining seats were available, the wolves following behind me. We each sat down as everyone in the room continued to watch us.

“Give me whatever you’re best at,” I ordered, causing the man behind the bar who had been aimlessly watching us to jump before fumbling with some glasses and pouring us each a drink.

I took a glass that was full of some ale and then turned back to the crowd. They hadn’t moved or said a thing since we had entered. I glanced to the one standing on the table, raising an eyebrow.

“Well? They’re waiting.”
