Considering much of the network's recent activity, I fear my inquiry is not particularly scandalous, nor is it especially thought-provoking, but please bear with me for just a moment.
I'm looking for someone skilled in enchantment, particularly in the field of weaponry. I may have some work for you, if you're willing to try something for me. A paying job, of course, should it happen to work out.
If that sounds like something that might interest you, then let me know and we can sort out the details.

[Whether he's able to find what he needs or not, the rest of his evening will be spent at a tavern—the one at The Hearth Fire, to be precise. While he does have certain expectations about who he might run into here, his main goal is simply conversation, so he'll turn to anyone that doesn't look to be busy and say:]
Excuse me. If you have a moment, would you mind humoring me with a story?
[If it's conversation he wants, then surely this, too, could've been solved over the network, but... Well, maybe he's old-fashioned, but these sorts of things are better done in person. Not plastering his face all over the network considering his general line of work, however, is also a plus. While occasionally necessary (like today), he'd like to keep it to a minimum.
Alternatively, feel free to wildcard and run into him anywhere. Although, wherever he is, you might be wondering why there's a chinchilla rolling around his feet. On second thought, haven't you seen it somewhere before...?]

And so, indulging him, Toh'ni explains the lore as it's been passed down among the people of Doma. She herself has only but recently gained a deeper understanding after being asked to assist with quelling the three great beasts' rage, but she's happy to impart what she's learned.]
And so these four wise, noble beasts journeyed alongside master Tenzin, defeating foes and protecting the people, until they at last came upon a foe that they could not best. One whose might was greater than all five of them combined. Master Tenzin saw no choice but to sacrifice himself in order to see this evil sealed away. The seal held for centuries...
[That she trails off at the end is deliberate, both because in this time the barkeep has finally found the time to take their order (she asks for something of the non-alcoholic variety) and to give Thancred a moment, to be sure that she hasn't lost his interest, and to give him a chance to interrupt if he has questions, wishes to make any speculations, observations, or... well, anything else. She's wary of talking his ears off, despite his earlier flattery.]
