"Illegal to own a tavern?" The dragon laughs, a hand on his sword pommel. "As if..."

"No. It's illegal to have people eat and drink here for free. I'm breaking the law." The rabbit covers his face in embarrassment. "I-Im sorry, I'm blabbering. I-Ill let you drink.."

"No-" the dragon extends a hand. "No, its quite alright... Tell me, would you happen to need protection for this place?"

The rabbits ears perk up "Why yes, yes I do." He forms a small smile on his face

"Well, between you and I, i am a knight errant, in search of a job..."

He reaches his arm out "What's your name, Sir?"

"Korth, friend." The dragon shakes his hand, offering a warm smile

"Well, Korth.." He loosens his grip "I have a feeling we'll be great friends. Would you like your own room to stay in, or would you like to stay at my home?" He asks while silently chuckling to himself

"I'll take any bed, surprise me!" He grins, before quickly finishing his drink.

"My bed it is. When would you like to start?"

"Whenever i'm needed. I've got my sword and armor on beneath the cloak..."

"Would you like to stay here then? We could talk after my shift."

"Sure... Say, any food here?"

"We got meat. That's about it" Victor chuckles

"Mind if i get a piece?"

"Yeah, of course." He grabs a slab of ribs and starts cooking them

"So... What brought you here?"

"Well, some of my family lives here, and I just wanted to come back to my hometown."

"Fair enough. If this place is as you say, i wouldn't leave family here either."

"Well, where IS your family?"

"Other kingdom, north of here. Smiths, they are."

"I see.. So you have experience in making weaponry?"

"A little, yes. More of a fighter, though. How'd you become a innkeep?"

"Was my fathers. He gave it to me after i graduated."

"Ah, i see. All i got was a sword."

"You we're the lucky one."

"How so?"

"Running an inn is hard, Sir."

"I'll take your word for it, Boss."

Vic chuckles, and goes back to cooking.
