Gustave approaches the two travellers, bearing a freshly purchased bottle of suspiciously cheap-looking wine and several glasses.
"Gentlemen!", he says, eyeing their well worn travel garb and moist demeanor, "you appear well in need of a little imbibation", he notes beaming a set of perfect teeth and holding aloft the wine bottle and glasses.
"Perhaps I can offer you a drop in echange for a tale? I am recently arrived myself and in search of a little misdemeanour - or whatever else is on offer."
He plonks the wine bottle on the table in way of opening and stabs a shapely hand forwth, "Gustave Tonneau, at your service".

"Done, with thanks." Olaf mutters before falling asleep.

The night in the barn passes surprisingly comfortably.

Anwyn wakes Caine for the midnight watch.

A few hours into his watch the rain stops, and a little while later Caine observes, through a crack in the barn wall, a pair of Hobgoblins riding upon over-sized wolves lope up to the front gate of Ket and hail the guards. They appear to exchange news and a small leather parcel before the wolf riders bound off into the darkness from whence they came.

Nothing further happens until Caine wakes Padrig for the dawn watch.

Padrig's watch is rather shorter than his sleeping fellows may have wished, for the barn's owner is an early riser. There are sounds of his preparing to start his day an hour ere the sun is risen!

"What ave we ere?" gasps the stocky farmer in surprise when he opens his barn door in the grey dawn to find a troop of mercenaries and Elves among his cows.

"Never mind us," grunts Victor and by some mercy of manners he does not spit, as he shoves a jangling coin purse into the farmer's stunned hands.

Olaf encourages the farmer to keep confidence as he looses the drawn strings and ogles at the sum of coin within.

"Right you are, Sirs," stammers the farmer as the party marches past him and into the cold, wet morning.

(Dieter, Olaf contributed 2 silver shillings each, as did Victor and Padrig (both being of lawful alignment)).
