<p>story from Raain's POV

dream, good dream

&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; (Raain's brother) was standing in a field of flowers under two trees. There was a large dragon a hooded man, and a Hhorq; Raain watched from a distance, sitting at a campfire. As the men and dragon spoke under the tree, the darkness was split by a bright light. Then she saw the that all were slain and only the light remained.

someone eating the food remarks how his wife can never mix the nuts right, and nearly every time the powder starts sparking and catches the whole kitchen on fire!&#160;

Raain replies: "Your wife has a bad bunch of nuts to work with."

"Hey!! Raain has her sense of humor back!" says one of the other guys at the table, as the bar erupts in laughter

Arun asks Griegg why he had his sword out as he entered the inn.

"I'd never seen the town so dark, the inn has never been black, I was concerned the hhorq from Taulave had raided and killed everyone."

"What, just because you leave, you think we'll be unable to defend ourselves?" Raain said.

"I don't know, like I said, the town has never been so dark. Was that really for me?" Griegg asked.

"What, you think your murder don't deserve two months of mourning?" shouted a random resident of town that had come in for the story.

GC sat silently as a few others shouted "here, here!" and other comments of near worship. He couldn't figure out why the town's folk loved him so much, he was just the stable master and a bit obsessed with the mystery of history. Maybe he'd lead in fighting off a few hhorq attacks over the past twenty years, though it seemed each person had a different recount of each event.
