    Atorre waves at the new people as they come in. That spider-girl must have really strong fingertips. If anything, this is stranger than the person who just left a moment past.

    "Yes, that's a good way to describe it. We can, when we try to; helps us relate and remember our past better. But usually not. It isn't something I'd want to go back to."

    He winces sympathetically on hearing about the apocalypse. "Sorry to hear that. But you're still living there alone?"

    Innocently, or actually innocent?

    Atorre nods. "My point exactly. We prefer to focus on the present and the future, not on how things used to be. Responsible for all the good of the present, sure, but not such as we should return to."

    Indeed! She waves back, picking a table. It's worth noting that on her leg-hands, she seems to spread the weight through the front of her palm, her thumb, and her entire fingers rather than just her fingertips. She also wears a sort of cloth wrap on each of those hands, probably to reduce abrasions and discomfort to her palms.

    Reinholdt arrives!

    If Tobias is already there, great. That means Reinholdt had a chance to stop and make another phone call along the way. He may have even been able to do that anyways. He was really just trying to get Tobias to use his tree jump to teleport nearby anyways.

    Rein looks around for Tobias and orders coffee in the meanwhile.

    The road-weary traveller, Abrek, steps into the tavern. He pauses and cautiously scans the room before continuing to the bar. Abrek is mostly humanoid, but almost 12' tall and extremely thin. He also has 4 arms. Rugged in appearance his woollen cap is pulled low over grey eyes, dirty blonde hair falling tangled to his shoulders. He is dressed in worn clothes and boots that were clearly once of decent quality, and a somewhat damaged padded leather jerkin. There are tears on his left sleeve as if some sort of patch has been torn away. From his belt hang a short sword, and a small coin pouch. On his back rests a bow, a leather shield and a small knapsack, an empty waterskin hanging from it. If he carries any arrows, he keeps them hidden.

    On reaching the bar he orders ale in a rough, deep voice before seating himself, dropping his pack to the ground and resting his bow and shield beside him. Abrek pulls off his cap and shakes his head, revealing a capital 'P' branded into his forehead.

    Drinking deep, the traveller looks around the room, eyes never still.

    Krayger is in Trog's again. The brown-furred minotaur is at his own table enjoying a drink, and although he's not paying all that much attention to his surroundings, he doesn't seem like the kind of person who'd be against some company. He does give a wave as the newcomer enters, although he doesn't move from his table.

    (retcon away)

    "Not at all."
    Krayger takes a pull of his drink and wipes his mouth. He smiles, which only looks a little weird with that muzzle of his.
    "It's not every day that I meet folks taller than me."
    Krayger is over six feet tall by the way, approaching seven if you include his horns.

    "I've noticed that people have been shrinking the further I get from home." Abrek takes another swig, ale almost half gone. He's used to bigger mugs.

    "Tell me, what manner of creature are you? I have never before seen one of your kind." the word 'creature' is not said in an insulting way, the tone suggests Abrek is unsure what word he should use.

    Into the tavern walks a young woman! Said young woman might be accompanied by a young man! Said young woman might be immediately recognized as a former questgiver by Rein!

    It's Lintha!

    The woman's figure is shapely. Vivacious. She stands at a height of 5'11". Her facial features are soft. Her snowy white eyes glow with an otherworldly radiance. Her hair is of an auburn hue and is styled into a long ponytail that just touches her shoulders. Her clothes consist of a bright blue t-shirt with a decal of a certain canary bird armed with a machine gun shooting at a certain black and white cat, black denim jeans, and shiny, red heels. Her smooth skin is of a warm tan tint. Her lips are blood red. Overall, she has a very delicate look to her. She can't be much older than twenty.

    Anyway, she strides into the bar and looks around for a place to sit, giving Reinholdt a friendly wave if she can spot him from the entrance.

    The Druid finishes his drink before answering his friend. She's doing well. Staying out of trouble, I think. She's making new friends at such a rate I'll admit I've been unable to keep track of them all. Of course, the hard part is keeping friends. Also, Kevin will be staying at camp this month. That should be interesting.

    Krayger shakes his head. "We don't really have many scholars. Or any, in all likelihood. Our society never was very organized. Our really a society. Most of them were satisfied with whatever religious jargon they were fed as youths. It doesn't matter much, in the end. Whether we were made by man, god, demon, or magic, on examination we seem just as natural as any human."

    Krayger shrugs. "My race's ambivalence to their own betterment has always been something that's bothered me. We love complex things, yet so few of us do anything with that aptitude. I'm an engineer, I design things. But that's unusual for us. Plenty are content to just sit in their tribes in raid people, and that's why back home I'm not normally allowed in 'civilized' settlements. It's much nicer here."
    Oh and for the record the only thing Krayger is visibly wearing is a pair of black, padded pants. They're of pretty decent quality and clean. A satchel hangs from the back of his chair.
