Introduction
Who: Jade, Anise, possibly Asch and Jay...and anyone else who wishes to engage in early morning (or whatever time of the day it is) glee!
Where: Blessenwood Inn
Why: Jade said he'd treat Anise to something at the inn...that and he wants to familiarize her with her surroundings and possibly some members of Ad Libitum.
[Jade's sudden and untimely entrance into the inn at this hour caused some weary heads to turn. Somehow, despite all of his jokes about being a fragile old man, the colonel managed to boast the most vigor as he walked with an unnoticed bounce in his step--not the kind associated with cheery youth, of course, but instead a lesser version that indicated that, unlike most others in the area, he actually had some energy. Ever the gentleman, he held open the door for his precious guest. He shot a glance at the bar where a certain redheaded boy's glower contrasted with the colonel's eerily immutable smile, then looked back at the doorway. The youth behind the counter no longer boasted that ridiculous apron, but instead a basic white replacement. When Jade looked back, the boy had vanished from sight. He sighed.
(Perhaps this would be a good opportunity for both of us to meet one of the more elusive members of Ad Libitum. I would prefer Anise meet someone a bit friendlier...or at least someone who is not among enemy forces. Introducing her to an enemy would only hinder Ad Libitum's chances of recruiting her.)
[Focusing back on his surroundings, the colonel looked outside to make sure that Anise had not gotten lost while he had been leading her. Well, he was aware of his surroundings and would have noticed if he had left her behind. Spotting the girl on her way over, he smiled and motioned for her to enter first.]
Anise, this is the Blessenwood Inn. Most of the people who share our unexpected situation reside here. Furthermore, they tend to reconvene here, making this an ideal place for gathering some information and meeting others who may be able to help undo said situation.
