Quentyn's eight ruffians enter the Blue Manray behind him, and take up relaxed positions along the wall.

Daeron is sent for and arrives a while later, taking his time to walk down the stairs as he sees Quentyn. "Cousin Quentyn, what on earth are you doing here?" He asks as he gets to the bottom.

Not long after Quentyn enters the tavern, a young Braavosi man who is dressed in a white tunic and grey leggings with a blue cape hanging over his shoulders, enters. He is holding a lute in one hand, he heads toward the barkeep, hoping that he would find this place more open to him playing here for the night.
"I was told that you might be looking for a bard to entertain your guests, Master Barkeep."

"Oh Hi Daeron," Quentyn says, as if surprised to see him there, "I've been meaning to ask you, what is a manray? Bob and Robb over there," he gestures towards two of the Braavosi ruffians whose names are almost assuredly not Bob and Robb, "Were arguing whether its an animal or a Lyseni sexual position. You have a room in this place? Let's talk there."

"Yes, I think that might be best. Follow me." Daeron replies, heading back up the stairs. At the top he pauses, turns and smiles. "As to your question; I believe it is both." He continues to his room.

Quentyn smirks at the answer. "How long are you planning to stay in Braavos?" Quentyn asks as he walks into Daeron's room.

"You were told wrong bard. I ain't never heard no bard who entertained half as well as one of those serving wenches. They usually just end up getting things thrown at them. Its a big mess," The barkeep replies.

"How many beautiful women are there in the city?" Daeron replies. "Both questions I do not have an answer to." He sat down on his bed and procured a bottle of strongwine. "Thirsty?"

"Strongwine? At this time of day, Daeron?" Quentyn raises an eyebrow. "I'll pass." He sits in the room's chair, then places a finger on his chin. "His Grace asked you to evaluate the situation in this city, did he not?"

"Aye." Daeron replied, taking a drink from the bottle and shaking in an exhagerated manner after swallowing. "And that I did. Lord Delinal is very eager to meet Daemon, you know."

"I am sure he is," Quentyn says. "He is a young man, is he not? The heir by blood but perhaps not by ability. What did you make of him?"

"You were told wrong bard. I ain't never heard no bard who entertained half as well as one of those serving wenches. They usually just end up getting things thrown at them. Its a big mess," The barkeep replies. Inside himself, Lysaer sighed and wondered if his bad luck was ever going to change. It had been almost a week since he had had a decent meal, and now he had been told a lie which had made him lose valuable time to find a place to sleep and play at for the night. On the outside however, he gave the barkeep a smile. "I apologize for being misinformed, Master Barkeep. I would agree with you that most of the bards that play around here doesn't have much to offer entertainment-wise, but what do you have to lose. I can play outside if you are afraid that I will have your common room become a mess. I just ask for a hot meal to eat and a bed for a few nights, I know that I am worth a lot more than that, but since you are not looking, I guess I have to lower my pay."

"I am sure he is," Quentyn says. "He is a young man, is he not? The heir by blood but perhaps not by ability. What did you make of him?" "Fairly intellingent. Overly courteous. Big appetite." Daeron said, corking the bottle and setting it down. "I know his secret." He announced, grinning.

"Yeah... well... I'll give you a hot meal for a few songs, but that's it. Anything the customers throw at you, you can keep, be it silver, or something else," the barkeep says clearly regretting his decision already.

"His... secret?" Quentyn asks, raising an eyebrow.
