Chapter Three

"Look, up ahead. It's Ortanka, the City of the Honor Knights."

"Whoopdedoo. I've been here so many times when I had to practice."

"What? You never told me? You know I love that place. I always wanted to travel there."

"No. You never asked."

"Aaarrgghh. Fine. Whatever."

They went to the gate and called to the guard to "open up". The gate eventually opened after Tanis had told them that he was part of the Imperial Sentry. They went on in. They eventually found an inn, since they had been traveling for many days.

"Inn keeper. We need a room and some food."

"For the room, it's 3 gold, and for all you can eat food, is 6 gold a day. Sound good?" the innkeeper said in a gruff voice.

"Ummmm, do you have a sale sort of thing for Imperial Sentry?"

"Yes. We cut down the price. For a room, it comes to 8 silver, and for the food it comes to 1 gold."

"Oh. Well didn't you know I was a guard?"

"Yeah right. Show me your badge."

"Good thing I brought it with me," Tanis said as he was taking out his Imperial Sentry badge.

"Fine. You can stay here for 8 silver and eat for 1 gold. What about her?" he asked pointing to Laurana.

"She's with me. She is a sorceress, and the apprentice of Gothun Hunter. You know the one that practically rules the world? So is she allowed to get the same amount as me?"

"Yes. Yes. She can get the room and food the same as you," the innkeeper said in a gruff, scared voice.

"Thank you," said Laurana.

The innkeeper bowed low.

"Here's you money. Let's go get some food. I'm famished."

"Ok. By the way," said Laurana then turning to the innkeeper, "here's the money I have to give. Oh. Here's an extra 2 silver, for a tip for letting me get the same price," she explained.

Laurana and Tanis went and sat at a table. They called a waitress over.

"One beer for me please. What about you Laurana?"

"I'll have a glass of water please. I don't feel like having anything strong tonight."

"Ok. Is that all?" asked the waitress.

"Yes. I believe it is," said Laurana.

"All right. I'll be back in a minute with your beer and water, " said the waitress.

"Thank you," said Tanis, to the waitress as she walked away.

"What is up with you?" asked Tanis.

"What?"

"You said you 'didn't want anything strong'. What the heck is wrong with you? This is the only time were going to be able to talk to each other with a drink in our hands."

"Well, sorry. I wanted something refreshing. Not vile."

"Fine."

"Here are your drinks," said the waitress, handing them their drinks.

"Thank you," Laurana said.

"Do you want anything else?"

"No thank you I'm fine," said Laurana.

"For you sir?"

"Nothing' for me thanks."

"Okay."

Laurana drank her water.

"I think I'm going to bed early. Ok?"

"Yeah see you later," said Tanis, sounding a bit disappointed.

A man was sitting in the corner of the inn, and walked very tall and proud towards Tanis, when Laurana was going up the stairs.

This is just a shot at it. All the chapters I have written on this is just my way of doing a story. Soon you will get a story that I made and hopefully it will get lots of reviews. Thanks for reading. More to come.
