Alexander grinned, but said nothing, inhaling deeply the air of the Harbor. After setting his feet on the wood of the pier he made sure that Nova finished the descent, too, after wich he let her hand go and came up to two idling guards - a human and a dwarf.
"Morning, officers. Do you, by any chance, know of any Gilnean Liberation Front platoons in the city?" he asked, bowing ever so slightly. The two eyed him suspiciously, after which the dwarf said rather loudly, "Hard luck there, mate. A transport of theirs left a couple of days ago, and my guts say we won't hear of them in two weeks at least, 'fore the next party gathers."
"Hey, don't touch the hair!" the elf screamed, blinking several yards in front of him, spinning around and letting out a massive cone of cold.
"It's okay if I'm telling this joke," he informed the world around him.

"Wel... And what about the fishermen? How do they fare these days?
And before you grow even more suspicious, let me inform you that I am a druid from Gilneas and all I need is a way to get there."
"Hard luck for ye again, guv, several major shoals are about to come in a day or so, the fishermen are tot'lly not missing them."
"If you seek a vessel to hire, you can try and negotiate with the merchants in the northern dock," the human interjected, "But you'd better have heavy purses that are easy to open."

"The fishermen, the merchants, are that our only options?" the druid asked, "accidentaly" re-adjusting his belt so that the money purse clanged slightly. The guards shared a look then the human spoke.
"You can always try the tavern, I've heard adventurers are gathering to venture into the peninsula."
"Thank you, officers," the gilnean smiled, extending a hand. In it lay a silver coin that was unnoticeable for Alexander's companions - that is, before an accidental ray of light reflected from it. The guard grinned knowingly, shaking the hand and skillfully taking his portion of dwarven stout in metal equivalent.
"Good day to you," the druid nodded, heading to the tavern, still smiling even though he was scowling in the back of his mind.

"It's not really bribing, more like encouraging general helpfulness. As for your second question.. My resourses are limited, but we can give the merchant and/or the fishermen options a try. Perhaps, we should find out how much a fisherman would get in shoal days - or whatever they call it - and compare it to the merchant price..." the gilnean said thoughtfully.

"Well then, let's waste no time and go to the tavern, eh?" the druid said, heading away.
Meanwhile, one of the piles of boxes that were scattered around the pier shuddered as a thin, sickly pale human teenager popped his head out of it. He muttered something unintelligible, looking at the trio.
'
I shouldn't have eaten the letter...
' he thought, scratching his hair so dirty and greasy that its true color - gray, of the kind that only the old people or the ones that had seen too much have - could not be defined.

"Hoist by my own petard? Totally not happening," the elf declared, shifting the shield's potency to the front, so that the icing bumped into it and fell on the ground harmlessly. Watching out for the worgen, Lisciel sent out a barrage of weak slowing spells at the dwarf, so that at least one or two would hit her.

"..Because weather never ever has a mind about me!" Alexander finished cheerfully - albeit a little bit flatly, - gracefully stepping inside and earning a round of laughing approval. The place was packed and no tables were free, but at least there were three neighboring stools at the barkeep - that's where the gilnean headed.
At the back door of the inn a houseman frowned, "What d'ye think ye'r doin' here, Jeff? 's too early."
"It's cold outside, can I stay in for a while?" the teenager replied, a begging look in his eyes. "When did I cause trouble last time?"
"Alright, alright, just don't go into the main hall, 'kay?"

"I guess I'll have a..." Alexander looked around, carefully choosing his drink to earn the barkeep's - a brawny, bald dwarf with a glorious beard and a 'W' like moustache - disposition, "Mead, to begin with."
((I've only added the description since it's the actual NPC - innkeeper Helbrek. And as long as I've taken the guards, do you wanna take the barkeep?))

"Wouldn't want to miss the whole evening due to a single mistake, eh?" the druid laughed back, picking up the mug and downing it in one mighty gulp.
"Another one," he smiled, hoping to perform a quick cleansing ritual when the barkeep looks away next time.

"Okay," Alexander took the mug and this time took a careful sip, then shuddered.
"Phew, goes right where it should go," he said, putting the mug back on the table. The druid's free hand was behind his back with fingers crossed.
"Looks like a busy day for you, eh?"
