One of the many taverns in Braavos.

The tavern is filled with men and women drinking, and carousing. The establishment seems to be one which prefers Lord Tregario, since Lysaer sees orange badges on many doublets and orange piping decorating the hall.

Lysaer entered the common room, the lute in his left hand and he had washed himself up along with his clothes, so he looked a lot better than he had in the last week. The wounds on his neck and arm was healing good, though they still throbbed at times which affected Lysaer from time to time.
He looked around the common room, watching for the healer's daughter that he had been sent to court.

There was a man, who had no badge, but did have a sword on his hip, and a girl on his lap. she was drinking from a wine goblet which he held in his hand.

Lysaer made a note of the pair, and headed for the bar and the tavern keeper, to speak to him about playing a few songs for a small meal to eat and something to drink.
"Good Evening, Master Innkeeper. I was wondering if I would be allowed to play a few songs for a small meal, maybe some soup and bread and something to drink?"

"Sing us a good song about Lord Tregario, and i'll cook you a hot dinner," the innkeep replies.

"As you wish, Master Innkeeper." Lysaer said with a smile and bow with the head before he headed for a spot in the common room where he had a good look upon the man and the healer's daughter.
He sat down and began to tune his lute, while he was thinking about what to sing in honor to Lord Tregario. He placed his fingers upon the lute and began to play a common tavern tune. Some of the customers in the common room turned to look upon him. Lysaer began to sing, making up the words to the tune as he played along, he didn't know a song about Lord Tregario so this would have to do. Hopefully it would be enough.
"Come and listen to a song about a lord we all know
who wants us all to follow in his tow
He walks around Braavos telling us he is all big and mighty
though most of us know that his mind is a little bit flighty"
The innkeeper glared at Lysaer with a frown upon his face, while some of the patrons in the tavern looked confused since this were not the lyrics to the tune. Lysaer smiled and moved forward with the tune, waiting for the change in pace before he began singing again.
"And we all know that his name is Lord Trei Delinal, the delusional. "
He stopped singing and continued to play the tune, and waited to see the reaction to what he had done, before he was going to continue with his song.

Just as blades were starting to come out of sheathes, Lysaer gets to the surprise ending. The tension cause generates a great deal more laughs then the song probably deserves, but Lysaer figures that's alright.
The Innkeep brings over a bowl of soup, and the bravos pepper him with some coin.
[20 Silver stags collected.)

Lysaer bows his head to those that come over and give him some coins, and he continues to sing his song as he had thought the next part of the song.
"We all know of a lord so strong and wise
that even the gods look down with envy from the skies
He knows no boundries and embraces what others fear
so this lord is our future and will be Sealord within the year."
He played for another minute, and then he ended the song and cheered.
"And we all know that his name is Lord Tregario, the Magnificent."
He stopped singing and continued to play the tune until it ended, then he began to eat of the soup, while he watched the healer's daughter and the man seated with her.

She was currently feeding him grapes, and the bravos hands were gods only knew where.

He finished his meal and waved one of the serving wenches over.
"Excuse me, my lady. May I have something to drink, I want something cheap as my purse is pretty empty at the moment. Also, might I ask who is seated over there?" he nodded towards the healer's daughter and the bravo.

"Don't know her name, but he's Jurek, a bravo. Not a good one, as serves Lord Tregario though, more of a sellsword loutish type," She puts down a glass of ale, and hurries away.

Lysaer was about to thank the serving wench, but she hurried away so quickly that he didn't get the chance to. Instead he finished his ale, before he began tuning his lute again and sat down to play the common room a few more songs. He started playing a common tavern songs, but after two songs he changed to songs that was more about beautiful maidens and adventures. He changed some of the lyrics to fit the looks of the healer's daughter, and he kept looking at her as he sang.

The girl still appears to be enraptured with the man on whose lap she is sitting, and if she hears the music she gives no sign.

Lysaer cursed in his head, trying to think of something else that he could do to get the girls attention, but when he couldn't think of anything that would work now, he decided that he was going to try his luck at the rose-market instead.
He played a few more songs, before he exited the tavern to find a place to sleep.
