Trawm casually saunters into the Dragon's inn. Some eyes turn with distrust
toward the half-troll, but Trawm sneers at them, and proceeds into the middle
of the bar.
	"I'm looking for one called Meshtak...I come with a message from a
'friend.'" bellows the half-troll. Meshtak recognizes his name, and puts down
the nice mug of Black Demon ale (tm) he has been chugging.
	But Littlefair speaks up first. "Here's little Mechatack. He was just
here trying to sell tickets to the page's tourney." He indicates a little boy
about 9, who looks very young and sweet.
	"Thank ya, Mr. Littlefair." chirps the young boy. He looks at Trawm
suspiciously. "What 'friend?'" The boy asks.
	"Yer Meshtak?" asks Trawm, his mouth gaping. Talk about overkill...
Blade vs. this little boy?
	Meshtak walks over. "Wait, my name is Meshtak too...Hey kid, we have
the same name!" Mechatack seems less than thrilled, even a little.. fearful.
	Meshtak speaks up. "So which one of us is it, friend? Did the guy that
sent ya say?"
	Trawm shook his head. "Well, no. But he's just outside. How 'bout both
of ya come with me, and we'll find out which one he wants?"
	Normie speaks up. "Hey, be careful there, Meshtak...Trawm there is
a sneaky bastard!"
	"Don't worry." says Meshtak, his usual courage augmented by drink. "I
can take care of myself." He grips the whip at his side, and with Mechatack,
follows Trawm outside.
