"My original plan had been to meet my colleague back at the tavern about 2 hours from now, after I'd spoken to you." She paused slightly, before resuming.

"Let's head back to the tavern right now, and you can fill me in on the details along the way. I will relay to my partner what you inform me, at the appropriate moment. That way, we can save some time." Sighing, she beckoned him to follow her.
Oh, captain, you are a cunning one. She grit her teeth as they set off on their return journey. Curse you for leading a gullible youth on. A pebble groaned and rolled away as her frustrated foot connected with itself in the rear.
And curse you, for toying with the feelings of those whose lives are worth more than your puny one...
