Alia pushed open a door to enter a tavern, feeling relieved. She had been walking for hours and really needed a rest and a refreshment. Smiling slightly as she walked inside, her smile faded a bit as she noticed how... [i]messy[/i] the place looked. Still, perhaps the place was not as bad as it looked, and she had been in a few bad places before. Alia decided to give the place a chance. Ignoring the commotion with some spear-brandishing woman, she went to the bar counter and sat down at a stool. It felt good to finally be off her feet. 

Looking at the others who were there, it seemed like things were calming down. Alia raised her hand, trying to flag the one with the bottle, and said, "Hey! A drink for me too!" A drink would do her good; she was feeling rather parched.
