Tellyna glanced at Johnothan, then managed a slight smile. "Close call huh?" She said, standing up and raising an eyebrow at him as she but her dagger away and glanced around, flashing a grin at Tulana.

The rain is finally starting to let up outside, as the inkeeper moves back to his place behind the bar. His wife, Dar (the serving wench) suddenly noticing the state of the poor wounded girl's clothes (they are, and have been severly torn and a good deal of her flesh has been showing) moves over to her after giving Kai his ale. Come with me child, you seem to be in a terrible state yourself. I think maybe you can fit in one of my daughter's old dresses. Anyway, it'll be better than traipsing around half naked. Turning to shout into the kitchen. RIL, COME OUT AND HELP THESE FINE TRAVELERS. I'VE GOT TO ATTEND TO THIS POOR GIRL. COMING MOTHER! is all that is heard from the kitchen, as Dar leads the poor girl up the stairs to the family's living area. From the kitchen emerges a young woman with enourmous blue eyes and curly brown hair, like her mother's. Hello everyone, {gasp} what happened here? Turning to her father, he gives her a blank look before speaking. The man on the floor came in, apparently looking for trouble, just like the rest of the snake tat's we've seen. He picked on the Minotaur over there, and got the best of him when it came down to it. Unfortuneatly for him, the rest of these fine folks seem to be traveling with the Minotaur or simply didn't like the idea of the bully starting up a fight in the middle of the bard's song. Anyway, he's unconscious, and the Minotaur damn near died, if it wasn't for that elf there binding his wounds, he'd of bled out all over the floor. As it is, we've got a hell of a mess to clean up. Uh, folks, I'd say someone should bind that fellow afore he wakes back up. Damn, I missed all that catchin up the dishes in the kitchen? What can I do to help pa? Just see to the wounded and keep their ale full hun. There are clerics with them to do the healing. Oh, run out and fetch yer brothers from the stable, and see if that young girl cleric is out there, I think that's where she took that panther of hers. OK pa. With that she bounds out the door, quite gracefully to head to the stables.

"Hmm, well, if any one has any rope I could make sure that he doesn't move anywhere."

finishing going through his things as if he was checking if anything got wet, the dwarf finally looks around and see`s the man on the floor and the wounded minotaur. Looking not particularly interested he touches a golden pendant, shaped as a raven skull, he is wearing. He puts everything back in the carpet bag and takes some his wet clothes including his hat revealing short brown hair and a expressionless face.

Mant Tallow staggers back towards one of the now vacant tables and sits down. A stunned look of disbelief on his face, some what disturbed by his own aggression and fighting skills. Maybe the luck of those that watch over... or was it that his new friend had been insulted and attacked that brought this aggreesion out of him? He ponders the situation for a moment and then becomes aware of Jonathons condition. He moves to the Minotaur and with a little of the salve, that he had used on the rescued lady before, attempts to bind the last of his bleeding wounds. Stepping back he, like the others of this group awaits a sign that Jonathon will pull through.

"Aye lass, close call indeed. But twasn't my song bout that there minotaur that incited the fight, so my mind's at ease with that" *Smiling back at Tellyna. Walking over to her backpack which she'd left by the fireplace, Tulana reaches inside and pulls out a coil of rope*
"Come Tellyna, lets get the troublemaker bound before he wakes. Looking forward to a meal I was, and then he goes knocking the tables about." *Walks over to the unconscious man.*

Although Mant's salve prevents further blood loss, not being magical in nature it does not gain Johnathon any HPs. His breathing does settle back into normal rhythms.
Tulana and Tellyna have no trouble at all binding the unconscious brigand. A quick search of his belongings uncovers a snake tattoo on his forearm as his cloak is moved aside to disarm him. The snake is of a similar design to those the party has seen before. Except for being of a diamondback type pattern in red with what appears to be gold dust implanted within the diamonds centers. If the theme follows as before this is a much higher level brigand than the others fought. He is carrying the long sword he was using in the fight, a pair of snake daggers (one in his belt the other in his boot) these are similar to the one's the characters found before, a backpack (containing rations, wineskin, torches and flint and steel), a beltpouch with coins and a couple of gems inside. The wear pattern on his inseam would lead you to believe that he has a horse somewhere (possibly the one tied to the inn's porch).
Light moans escape the minotaur's lips as he is still fighting for his life hovering at 0 hp.
Meanwhile, upstairs.... Child, tell me, how do you come to be in such a state? I really can not say ma'am. I have no memory of what happened before these people found me lying on the side of the road. I know not who I am or where I'm from. All I know is I won't be whole again until I reach Orb Lake Orb Lake? Can't say that I've heard of it. Finding the dress she'd been looking for she helps the poor injured girl into it. Well it's a bit large in the chest for you, but I think it's much better than the rags you'd had on. You can sleep here in Ril's room for the night, so's not to be alone. Tomorrow you can go to the temple and maybe the druid there can help you. Leaving the girl to fall asleep, Dar comes back downstairs just as the bard and mage finish binding the brigand.

*Piper remains seated at the bar, continuing to keep a watchful eye on the others. Hearing what Tellyna and Tulana have found on the brigand, she is glad to see that he is tied with a rope. Still soaking wet from the rain, she is cold and wonders if she can get something hot to warm herself with.*

Kai gathers just about enough streangth to look around the room, his mind picks up bit and peices of conversations and the actions insode the Inn, finaly he manages to stand and thank the Innkeeper for the ale and aid, two things not so far removed, he thought. "But I must ask you, what you know about that snake design? You see we have made it here because of that mark, the girl, we found her, within inches of her life, she had clearly been attacked, and 'Orb Lake' seemed a place of importance to her. All along out travels, we have been met with that design, a group of Brigands, we had to fight, all bearing the mark. The man here... Do you have any idea?

"Hmm... The marking looks interesting, perhapps he was a general or a leader of some sort?" tellyna thought outloud as she glanced at Johnothan, "We really need to do something about those wounds." She said, walking over to him. She lightly rested a hand on his shoulder as she looked down at him. "You, kind sir, should rest. Unfortunatly I do not know any heal magick, but rest should help." She advised, smiling slightly at him, then looking up at Tulana. "Know where any pillows are? I think we should make him more comfertable untill we know what we're going to do."

Tellyna nodded, "Please don't call me elf, my name's Tellyna, or Telly, either will do." She said with a slight smile as she glanced down at Johnothan, then stood up with a sigh.
