A deadly fight turns into a drinking session
Oldin, injured party members are: Thanis (down 17), Leenah (down 13), and Jiam (down 7). You have plenty of time to cast spells before the events of this validation, so just post who gets what.
Ruadhnait kicks the kuhns away from the captured Dudes and Vulan picks them up.
Vulan leads the men to the bar and orders a round of ale, which Alice rather shakily provides. Jiam and Aeless join them. Ruadhnait stands menacingly behind the men as they drink.
d3 seems a bit nervous as Vulan offers him an ale, but ultimately takes it and answers Vulan's question about his name, "I'm Joonays."
Brand and Esias approach Shareev to engage in a discussion of what just happened.
After only a minute or so, a man enters. He is short and stocky, and seems to have metal attached to his very flesh in various places about his arms, legs, and covering half his face. Shareev and Thanis will recognize this man immediately as the sheriff. He goes only by the name, "Sherrif."
The Sherrif is followed, a few steps behind, by a rather sleepy-looking Sam Tinker.
Sam looks around with a bit of shock at the bodies on the floor and the overturned table. The Sherrif surveys it all and asks, in a flat voice, "What is going on here?"

Oldin uses a Cure Serious Wounds on Thanis, a Cure Moderate Wounds on Leenah, and a Cure Light Wounds on Jiam. If Leenah is still injured, he will use a Cure Light Wounds on her, as well.
With the situation under control, Oldin returns to the table to comfort Amon.
As the Sheriff named Sherrif enters, Oldin stands. While he does not know what a Sheriff is, he does understand protocol relating to those in power. He confidently approaches Sherrif and says, "Greetings, I am Oldin. My friends and I came to this establishment looking for a bite to eat and a place to stay for the night. During our meal, five men entered and began drinking. Seeing that these men were not the sort I wanted to interact with, I politely ignored them, as did my friends. Unfortunately, their drinks got the better of them, and they attempted to start trouble. I asked my friends to discuss the matter with the men, and the discussion quickly turned violent.
"Unfortunately, both sides were to blame for the violence, and during what ensued, one of their men was struck dead while I bound the injuries of two others. Given the proper attention, they will recover. Afterwards, the remaining two instigators offered to purchase ale for my friends, and we are allowing the situation to calm down."

Rúadhnait sits, cleaning her blade before sheathing it. She pointedly ignores the sheriff (not that she could understand what he was saying anyway) and returns to her mug, only to realize that it is on the floor. With a sigh of resignation, she goes to the bar to fetch another, using sign language to convey her desire for more beer (or whatever we were drinking) to Alice.

Esias cleans the blood from his short sword and goes looking for his mug.

Shareev looks as the Sheriff comes in. Letting Oldin try to be diplomatic with him, Shareev will head to the bar where Leenah is.
"Sorry Alice, I do not think they understand our customs. I think the angry one took offense to the dudes messing with her friend."
If Alice does not understand Leenah, Shareev will translate for her.

Oldin casts spells on Thanis, Leenah, and Jiam. [Thanis healed 23, Leenah healed 15 (from just the cure moderate), Jiam healed 10, all at full hp now]
Oldin offers an explanation to the Sheriff, which the man seems to accept, although he stares a bit at the bodies on the floor. The Sheriff then approaches the bar and asks Joonays flatly, “Is this true? You have no further problem here?”
Joonays sneers at the Sheriff, “Yeah, they’re right, just a misunderstanding. We’ll just finish up a bit of drinkin’, then haul our dead ‘n wounded out of here and be on our way. You can move on, nothing to see here.”
The Sheriff exits the bar with a frown, nodding slightly to Sam Tinker as he leaves.
The rest of you turn to drinking and/or cleaning your weapons. Shareev translates for Ruadhnait, allowing Alice to understand what the Kelt is saying. Alice somewhat shakily serves as many drinks as anyone could want.
Sam Tinker, mouth still a bit agape at the scene, approaches Oldin and whispers something to him, then heads for the door.

Oldin's face does not betray the slightest emotion as he turns to face the gory scene, but as his gaze befalls Leenah, he glares with paternal disappointment. He then shakes his head and walks over to the bar. He whispers something to Alice (I assume that she would shrug, shakily, that she does not know). Next, he walks over to Shareev and whispers something to him, then waits expectantly for a response.

Leenah catches the look from Oldin and shrugs with a look that show only a touch of remorse. If Oldin moves close enough she whispers something to him in High Viridian.

Leenah nods in response to Oldin and taking a mug moves to Thanis. Softly she says to him, "I am sorry you were injured because of my actions." She then moves to sit off to the side where she can watch both the bar and the door. She proceeds to quietly and slowly drain the mug in her hands.

I am just waiting for someone to go over to the antique jukebox in the corner and select 'Oobie Doobie'. By the way, congrats, Pat, on the game. I am a huge fan of Gamma World, and it was a great segue in getting us here.

Retrieving his mug, Esias will get a refill from Alice, then look at his companions and ask, "So, where do we go from here?"

Leenah speaks up quietly at Esias words, "I was wondering that myself... I suppose we still head to the Sanctuary."

At Vulan’s request for music, Alice moves away from the kegs and ducks beneath the bar briefly. Moments later, the room is filled with strange, but soothing music from an unknown source.
Alice goes back to making sure everyone’s cups are filled, while Oldin and Shareev, after some whispering, head out the door.
[New post topic covers what Oldin and Shareev are doing outside. If you’re really opposed to knowing information your character doesn’t right away, don’t read it … My assumption is your characters will learn about it soon enough]

As Oldin and Shareev walk back in, Oldin's is laughing, "I can't believe you ate an entire handful of worms! How do you stomach it? Dirt and all?!?"
Oldin walks over to Amon, still smiling, "It is time for bed, you ugly devil! Alice, would you take Amon to his room? I will be up shortly to say goodnight."

Shareev rubs his stomach. "Sure was tasty. Of course, I didn't realize you had such big hands. That was almost two mouthfuls."
Shareev lets out a loud belch. "Excuse me. Seems like the worms weren't ripe yet." He laughs and pats Oldin on the back.
"Perhaps you can bring a round of drinks to the bar for everyone before you take him to bed Alice."
