[Keir] The Sauced Mule

On one of the lower tiers rests the Mule, well known for a good drink and a good time. Once upon a time the tavern actually had rooms for sleepers, but the rowdy crowd kept them awake. Opting to make a hall for games of chance, the inn became a tavern. From the outside it looks homely, uninteresting. A two story building squat in the middle of one of the blocks. It even has a front porch with chairs and tables for those interested in that sort of thing.

Inside, though, it becomes a true tavern. There's a dozen round tables with four times that many chairs, all usually populated at any given time. Half a dozen waitresses in skimpy clothes going around, doing their best to make the customers buy another round. Booths line the walls for those who want a more private atmosphere. Even a bar with several stools for heavy drinkers.

Upstairs is a large hall with square tables, one chair to each side. There's a minor bar here, but the hall is mostly for games. There's a pack of cards per table as well as other games of chance.

And whenever there's a problem, you just know that the owner, Bruce, will come out wielding his oak club to settle the dispute.

Jade swallowed a few times, draining down the latest gulp of the brew. He stared blankly, open mouthed, and the wall for a few seconds, blinking, then shook his head, and spoke in more or less monotone.

Jade- "My father died...three days ago."

Bruce - "I am sorry for your loss."

He poured the man another glass of nails.

Jade threw it back without so much as a flinch...he was definately getting toward drunk.

Jade- "Why...? should you be sorry. He didn't die because of you... it was my fault."

Jade set his cup down and learned back in his chair...almost to far, he had to grab the bar quickly to keep from toppling over backward. He flopped back forward and pushed the hair out of his face, talking slowly as he rested his forehead in his head.

Jade- "Four moons have passed since... since the summer caravans came in. I was out hunting, and spotted some forsaken Stonedogs setting up ambush..."

Jade pushed himself up at took another draw from his cup. He looked in it and drained the rest of it.

"Well, couldn't let them do that, so I hit them. Took out two before they even reacted, and got a third as they ran. Missed the fourth, and, well, it got away..."

The barkeep looked around nervously to see if there was a Garr in the tavern. At least none within earshot. He breathed a bit easier.

Bruce - "And then what happened?"

Jade hadn't even noticed the Garr in the room. Probably good. But bar fights are all sorts of fun.

Jade- "It must've tracked me back to my house, and set up another ambush. My father ...and I were coming down to Keir. Some trip to get something, I forget what. There was a storm, a bad one, came on too quick to be natural. Took out two more Garr; thought that was all of them. Couldn't find my father afterward...backtracked home and... ..."

The archer's voice had cracked slightly, suggested that he may break, but he swallowed hard and pulled in a deep breath.

"Can you imagine, seeing your entire life torn apart before you. ...there's so much blood in a man. If those stonedogs even bleed, there's probably more..."

Hart - "There is such a way to make anything bleed. Even souls bleed, boy."

The man who had been taking swigs from a shallow glass of a pale blue liquor.

Hart - "Hartigan, but you may call me Hart."

The stranger offered him a gauntlet'd hand, its crystal glimmering in the poor light.

Jade cocked an eyebrow and angled his head as he whirled it around somewhat smoothly to look at Hartigan.

Jade- "Boy? Just how old... are you?"

Jade held his head tilted for a few seconds, his slightly muzzled mind mulling the mysterious message that Hartigan had just said. His eyes flicked down at the proffed gauntlented hand, and he grasp it and shook it heartily.

"Name's Jadeyrn. Call me Jade...not asleep yet though."

Jade growled and flicked his eyes over to the door, where the bouncer had everyones weapons under close watch. A smart rule, not allowing weapons past the door, even though everyone probably had a concealed knife or something on them. Still, good intentions. His eyes focused back on Hart with a bit of effort.

Jade- "Believe me, I've tried to get my hands on those forsaken stonedogs, but they all look the same. I don't have the time to kill all of them to get the one I want, y'know?"

Hart - "Oh I know... sometimes a wake of death isn't a terrible thing you know. There are some of us who thrive on the passage of those dearly departed."

**Not understanding the serious nature of the conversation between Hart and Jade, Lane walked into the bar and took a seat at the table with the other two. Lighting a cigarette, she turned her head towards the two men.**

Lane- So which one of you is going to offer me a drink first?
