Entering the inn, Jay noticed Mark, Kel and Anya sitting at a table and chatting. Mark noticed Jay walking in as his seat was facing the door.

“Hey Jay,” Mark smiled, “Come have a seat.” he beckoned him over.

“Oh, hey. Looks like Anya recruited you too, huh?”

“Yeah,” Mark chuckled, “guess we won’t be doing a dungeon after all.” he shrugged with a smile.

“Heh, yeah..” Jay’s eyes drifted to the bar, trying not to reveal to Mark that he wasn’t planning to go into the dungeon with him, and greeted the others at the table.

“How are we all? Ready to go?”

“Good” Kel smiled back. Mark nodded with a wink.

“We’re ready. Ahead of schedule.” Anya replied, before handing them the details of the quest.

“Thanks,” Jay said, sitting down at the table before reading the details. Looking through the information, a regretful smile appeared on Jay’s face while reading about how a second child was presumed dead, so he wanted to speed things up; while Anya noticed Jay’s expression.
