Just before Rowan has gotten up to speak with the Mage, she hears a loud
crash in the direction of the inn door.  Used to such a common commotion
by now, she pays it no heed.  Then she feels someone staring at her.

She looks up, and is truly startled to see the brightly dressed,
grinning man before her, thrusting a rose toward her face.  "Ahhh!"  she
says, in surprise.  She takes the rose gingerly from him, thanks him
quickly, and backs away from the exhuberant gentleman, careful not let
her eyes leave him until she is safely ensconced within the crowd.  

She continues to make her way toward the Mage.
