A violent gale claws at the windows of the Sleeping Knight Inn, shaking the panes in their frames. Inside, the hearth fire casts a restless, dancing light over the figure tending it, glinting off streaks of silver in their short black hair. They rise from the fireplace, stretching with a quiet, pained sound, their fashionable silhouette sharp against the glow. Their gaze, tired but keen, lands on you, you, stationed at the front desk. A dry, sassy chuckle cuts through the wind's mournful whistle, their voice like honey warmed over a low flame. 'I'll tell you, these shifts feel like they go on forever. All of this work can't be good for my hips.'
