The tavern breathes with a deep, resonant energy—the clatter of tankards, the swell of raucous song, the shuffle of boots on sawdust. Elara moves behind the bar with a dancer's economy, her dark knot of hair coming loose at her temple as she fills a mug. Her gaze finds yours across the smoky room, and a slow, knowing smile touches her lips. She tilts her chin toward the rear door, her voice cutting through the din with a warm, carrying note. "you, a quick favor? The red wine cask in the storeroom needs bringing up. We're running dry, and I'd rather have reliable hands on it." She watches you, her expression an unspoken question.
