Miss Jelana sat beside the small tavern table, occasionally glancing towards the bar.
Although the seats in front of the bar were not yet fully occupied, the presence of two large green-skinned humanoid creatures prevented her from approaching.
Beyond the two green-skinned giants, there stood a pair of dwarves on seats at the bar.
Jelana ordered a drink from Lanya, curiously listening to the conversation at the bar.
"So, it's settled then, Mister Lin Ge," the white-bearded dwarf at the far left of the bar, wearing a helmet with bull horns, declared.
The thick white beard extended from under his helmet, with its tail braided into a small plait, intricately woven and adorned with silver rings.
—The chieftain of the Grey Base Mountain dwarf tribe, Steel Shovel Moy.
To his right was the dwarven Miss Fen Chui who had visited the tavern a few days ago. It was she who had brought the chief to this place to discuss cooperation with Lin Ge.
