well. pretty much everyone is in the bar 4norasins,
Asuma had her village burnt down and she found a chest full of stuff in her basement from her father, there was a map that led to Whiterun but Asuma is horrible at following orders and went to Winterhold by accident, hence why she keeps on referring to winterhold as "whiterun"
She also has a list of characters that She "may" be able to trust, also she walked into the bar and sat at a bar counter,
