Reunion at the Milk
Albert Monay was more than he appeared which, at the moment was a dust and soot covered Breton in a rank smelling cloak slumped over a bar. Passing through the city of Four Points he had hoped to avoid detection by the Kiragutii but somehow his pursuers had spotted him, he had avoided being caught only by dodging into the large cantina named Sugar's Milk, which he was very familiar with.
The large open air cantina was what folks called an "Oblivion Gate". After the Oblivion Crisis some groups began to aggressively hunt Daedra worshippers of all sorts, so places like this sprung up as underground meeting and hiding places, for a fee of course. He knew that the Tribesmen wouldn't start a fight in here unless they were willing to have bad blood with Daedra worshippers and the bouncers; Albert prayed that he wasn't that important to them
Despite the situation he had to admire the structure, the building was 3 storied, the basement was held storage and a kitchen (with several hiding places) the ground level was walled with wood and formed a rectangle with a bar along one side (where Albert sat), tables scattered about and a small stage where 2 Khajiit whole heartedly played sets of tribal drums. The upstairs was more of a roofed platform held in by the walls that circled the drummer's stage, nothing there but some cushions, skooma pipes and few hammocks for those too intoxicated to get home.
Into the cantina strolled the owner Luciou Baro, followed by a pretty dunmer lass, who preceded a very sun-burnt Nord, and last was a Bosmer talking to Luciou… Albert squinted, "Ferdain Yiumun…" Albert mouthed he rose and found a table within earshot of where they where seated,
"…don't worry bout it, and let me get you something to eat" Luciou said
"Anything would be delicious, thank you again Luciou." Said Ferdain sitting down,
"Anything for… uh are these friends"
"No, just traveling companions."
"Ya don't need to be rude." The red backed Nord muttered sounding hurt
Albert rose, striding towards the table; Luciou was going to get their drinks and intercepted him
"Don't you bother my uuuff…" Albert shoved him into a chair and pulled up a seat beside Ferdain, his 2 companions just looked at him; he thought he heard the Dunmer say something, Ferdain just smiled ear to ear
"Hey there…"
"Been a while huh, I didn't know you were out yet" said Albert eyeing the Bosmer
"Good behavior, I always mind my P's and Q's you know!"
"……………………….."
"Is something wrong Albert? It is still Albert right?"
Albert opened his mouth, but Luciou came back with 3 glasses and a pitcher of water, as he laid it down he glared at Albert with pure hate.
"I'm having some bread brought to you, no charge of coarse." And then he whisked off
"Can we go somewhere more private?"
"Downstairs then…"
