Lloyd: Returning Ameiko

Bethana Corwin, the elderly halfing who first raised the alarm, is delighted to see Ameiko enter the inn, albeit heavily supported by Lloyd and another guard. The old lady runs forward across the empty main room, and gingerly hugs her mistress. "My wee girl, I thought you were dead. i really thought you were dead! I never trusted that lad ... oh, your wrists are bound, did he hurt you?"

It is not long before the pair of watchmen feel rather surplus to requirements. Bethana starts fussing over her mistress, and when Lloyd attempts to ask a question she tuts him down. "Please gentlemen, we are very grateful for your help, VERY GRATEFUL, but the lady needs to rest. Can you return tomorrow with your questions perhaps?" It is said in such a way that Lloyd is left in no doubt that his welcome here, albeit brief, has already been overstayed. The young half-elf warlord heads back to the Glassworks just in time to catch his companions exiting the building.
