The Mopboy, having been arroused from his potscrubbing in the back,
comes running to the aid of the heroes gathered around a large, hideous,
reptillian creature lying prone in a pool of... of... Oh Gross!

Pinching his nose with one hand, he puts the bucket down and starts in
with the mop.  Some of the patrons kindly remove the beast from the
floor, and he can hopefully get the mess cleaned up right quick.

Even though he is scrubbing industriously, he sneaks a few peaks at the
incredible variety of characters (Boy, there sure are some real characters
in here, he thinks!) inhabiting the Inn.  Almost none among them pay him
the slightest heed, but oh, let there be someone's lunch on the floor and
they bellow for him right quick!

Well, another dirty job well done, but someone had to do it.  The boss
liked his place kept clean, and that was no easy task.  Heaving the now 
stinking mop and bucket off the floor, he threads his way back through
the crowd to the water room.  The groups of people had almost magically
made way for him and his unpleasent burden, a treat he rarely enjoyed
from these impressive folk!  He tried not to gawk even more on his way out.

Boy, this sure was a great job!
