A conversation overheard within the Inn :                                       
                                                                                
...Yes, I'll bet he did. And she never knew what hit her... ha ha haaaa.        
Hey! Guess what I saw today, a new'un. Strange too. That's it, buy me another   
tank o' grog and I'll tell you about him.......                                       
                                                                                
Stepping off of the ship, he stretched his body and worked out the knots in     
his muscles. Standing at 6 foot three, his build was thin. His short brown hair,
barely covered his ears, and he would have been completely un-remarkable but for
his eyes. He had the purest, brightest blue eyes I've ever seen. They were the  
sort of eyes that look through you. Then a strange thing happened.              
                                                                                
His skin was quite pale, and I thought he was ill, especially when he took a    
few seconds to have a conversation with empty air. Then, and I'm not saying the 
two are linked mind, his horse came trotting out of the ship, down the gangway  
and onto the quay. He spoke to the horse for a while, and I think I heard him   
call it Kling or something similar anyway.                                      
                                                                                
By the look of him though, the way he wore his sword and the number of weapons  
all over him, he was a fighter. So, what puzzles me, is if he's a fighter,      
how can he have empathy with a horse? And if he's a mage, how come he doesn't   
have a protective animal like a tiger? He's sure not a beast-master, for the    
horse was the only animal he had. Bit of an enigma this one lads, anybody got   
any ideas ???                                                                   
......                                                                          
Oh and keep it down, 'cause I saw him come in here earlier.                     
He only looked at me once, but those eyes went right through me, and I felt     
scared. Afterwards I had this really weird feeling and all I could think of     
was Blue-ice ????!!!!!                                                          
.........
