Rydia was only recently returned from the Riverlands and the scars of her time there were deep in her eyes. She had seen the things that kept you awake at night and even now there was an incessant roaring in her head like thunder.
The Tavern was open. Rydia had heard it would be so, but she could hardly believe it was true and for a moment she simply stood and stared at the beat up shack. Then Rydia pushed the door open and the squeak of hinges deadened the roaring in her skull.
It was good to be home.
Rydia nodded at Nate as she sank on to a stool. "You look rough," he said.
"Riverlands." Nate nodded and he poured her a glass of milk without asking. Rydia was already separating the perfect melody of coins. They exchanged and their eyes met and might have been a little bit wet.
Rydia turned away and swirled her milk. "Any chance someone in here is needing my services?"
