Shortly after dawn
Drought ongoing
Astris walked into the Serpent's Head Inn, looking tired and slightly burnt from the day's heat, barely looking around before heading to a table and seating herself gratefully and looking around to see if she could grasp one of the staff's attention. The drought has affected so much of the water supply. It was so hot already and it was still early morning. Perhaps they will still have aught to eat however. It would be best if I got enough to supply us on the way and in a hurry. If they were successful, others would not have long to suffer. "Hello, I would like to order a meal. Actually a few of them to take away. Is that possible?"
Seeking to buy:
1x The Parent and Child Bowl
5x Build your Own Sandwich
-Vaenbrot
-Roast River Serpent
-Lettuce
-Tomato
-Onion

"Good day, good day, good day! Yes ma'am. I'll put your order in right away. It's mighty hot out today. Water's been acting funny too. First thing the yard pump doesn't draw anything from the waterway, then it just spits a little bit. Poor Karne's been at the thing all day, I think our pump is broken. Madam Kimmel won't like to hear that though. Can I interest you in anything else while you wait for your food? If not that'll be four Duc."
It was Marie, one of the barmaids. She had shown up to take the order and just chatted away. Morning was her time of day. She liked the mornings. It was slow except during the summer and winter. During the summer they came in for juice and tea. During the winter they came in for beer. Strange ways to start the day. So far, very few people had come in.
Total cost: .4R

Astris shakes her head slightly. "No thank you. Simple speed would be appreciated." She fishes out the money to pay the girl. "And you might as well tell Karne that the water is out everywhere. The waterway is broken currently, but I hear they're working on it..." Her voice trails off as she notices the bulletin board listing help needed at Sorath Castle. They're advertising for help for the waterways already...they might be some assistance getting this fixed. She smiles at the young girl, focusing back on her. "Thank you. Could you give me directions for the Castle?" She gives the girl the money needed.

"Will do. Oh... the castle's in the direct center of town. Can't miss it if you know where the center is. Provincial palace is there too. Big square building next to the castle."
The girl takes the money and leaves for the kitchens. Several minutes later she comes out with a wooden bowl filled with the Parent and Child meal, and five sandwiches wrapped in cloth, as well as a cup of juice.
"I'm a fan of the river serpent myself. You need anything else, you let me know."
Astris gains:
1 parent & child bowl
5 "Build your Own Sandwiches"

Astris nodded. "Yes, thank you very much. I appreciate it." She leaves another couple of Duc on the table as a thank you for the young lady. She packs everything up and leaves heads out, eager to inform Ikram of what she's learned. Perhaps they will be able to travel better working with the city. Astris hoped so anyway. This heat and drought is terrible.
