MAC'S/FELLSGARD
Late Afternoon
The streets were still bustling as Gailen rode into Fellsgard. He had a particularly difficult job disposing of some unsavoury characters not far outside the city. He needed to kick his feet up and enjoy a nice pint of ale. Mouse plodded along over the cobblestones towards the trade district. He knew very well where Gailen wished to go. Even his own ears perked up a bit more at the prospect of a warm stall and steamed hay for a change.
"You need some rest too, ey Mousie?" Gailen asked his horse, patting his neck. Mouse snorted and threw his head in response. Gailen smiled at Mouse's enthusiastic response. Their bickering at each other aside, Gailen loved his big grey. The adventures they've had together over the years have been numerous. This was one horse that really looked after his rider - mostly because his rider was normally quite inebriated.
Soon, they reached their destination. Gailen saw to it that Mouse was well looked after before disappearing into Mac's. The inn was quite busy this time of the day. Gailen danced his way around people to reach the bar where he ordered a pint of ale.
"We don't see you here often. You looking for work? the barkeep asked.
"Just got off a job. I'm just passing through. My horse and I need a rest." Gailen answered him.
"You've come to the right place, then, friend. I'll get you a cold one." the barkeep smiled.
As Gailen waited for his drink, he looked about the room at what everyone was doing. At one of the tables, an earnest game of dice was being played. He decided that he might join a round a bit later on. For now, he just needed to kick back and relax a bit. He took his ale and flopped down at a corner table where he could see what was happening throughout the tavern.
