The hearth fire crackles, throwing long, restless shadows across the tavern's worn tables. The air is thick with the scent of cheap ale and unwashed bodies.

He lets the silence linger, a hunter observing his terrain. His eyes find you across the crowded room, and the faintest hint of a smile touches his lips. What kind of trouble have you wandered into tonight?
