Exton

The Tavern is jumping. The sound almost knocks Ob and Pandora off their feet as they open the back door. Ob stows the bags in the kitchen as Pandora makes her rounds. Keon waves from a corner table, where Guunnar is arm wrestling with someone.

Silk slides from the crowd, touching him on the sleeve. She motions to the back hall. A man stands there, watching the crowd. Another comes in the front and takes a table near the door. Human. Ob nods. He looks over the crowd until he finds Traeger.

Their eyes meet and Ob touches his hip. Traeger nods. Traeger slips out the door. In moments he is back, carrying a cloth wrapped object... Ob meets him at a booth, making sure their actions are visible to both humans.

Unwrapping the sword, he belts it in place, handing something to Traeger in return. Traeger folds the cloth and shakes Ob's hand. He goes back to his table and makes a show of being relaxed. Miko launches from Ob's hair and flits to Pandora. The demifae settles on the back of her couch, drawing his pin-like sword.

Ob wonders where the Adhene is hiding. It takes a few minutes to realize he is the one against whom Guunnar is pitting his strength. When Ob looks to the back again, the hall is empty. Tori clues him to the man, asking questions at the bar. He's looking for Joseph Ramirez. Gave an apt description of you Bro. Like he wasn't just staring at you...

Ob talks quietly to Silk, watching the man work his way closer. Miko whispers to Pandora, stopping her from joining them. "Think of the bambina, Maestra." His gaze flicks to Ob then back to her. "Trust your man. He is not alone."
