Another day, another weary morning. Eric lifted himself out of his bed and tugged on his clothes, feeling the traces of whiskey pulling at his muscles. He wasn't hungover in the slightest, but he could still feel the effects on his body as he trudged around his purchased room. His cotton shirt and hosen were washed by the innkeeper, his pack was nice and tidy, and his day looked as bright as ever. Hell, even his tab was generous enough to make him smile. Apparently, this place didn't see too much business if they had rooms for only 10 gold.
After taking a sip of water from an old, banged up flask, the merchant took his pack and rolled up his covers and spare clothing before doubling back to the window to check on his partner. Sure enough, Bob was content on the ground with a blanket tossed over him. While the mule was the third that the merchant had, Eric always tried to take good care of his charges as he did with his wares. The mule was an investment, anyway. Eric chuckled and went downstairs, eager to get back on the road to the forest 'o plenty.
He paid no heed to the new faces in the inn at first. Places like that always had new faces, he knew. He was tempted to get better acquainted with that ranger or pursue that beaten man for a possible customer, but that would have to wait until he got his breakfast and paid off his tab. With a small sigh, he sat down at a table and waved one of the inn workers over. Small frame, blonde hair, pretty on the eyes. What a shame that she was working here, but then again, her presence calmed the patrons.
"Bacon and eggs, please," he said with a smile before sitting back to wait.
