Sir, I mean no insult, and personally I am very much shocked that you taketh insult so easily. I'd have expected different from a true Celt, sir. There was no insult given to your brother, and such a quick temper does not reward one easily among the wild areas of the world, such as the Iberian Tavern.
I thought the Celtic drawl to be the most beautiful voice in the world, and it reminded me of a great uncle who had just such a voice, and a well clipped Celtic moustache to boot. The swagger, I had heard, was due to an injury in battle most severe that it affected his walking, so that he could only walk in a strut, making himself look all the more impressive.
If you take that as an insult, than I see no point in it. However, I do not feel the duel. The battle between two men is a good way to fall. I meant no insult, but if you take it as one, I must defend my honor, sir. Please consider what you do.

Hernan, we have misunderstood each other. I appologise for thinking that drawl to mean that my brother was humouring the lord Togas. So did I interprete the swagger as well. I'm glad ye meant no insult to m' brother. We needn't to duel. Hope this won't happen again.
Aidun has no injury. There hasn't been a major battle yet where he had to serve the lord Togas. Our family belonged to the nobility in my great-grandfathers homeland. The noblemen had to lead their warriors to battle and serve the king so. I don't know the name of the system. I doubt the title counts here too. However, one doesn't need to belong to the nobility to be rich. M' brother is very rich. He's in the jewelry 'n dyes business. It's going very well, but I have no interest in it. I don't like it, business.
I see that yer business is going well to. Can ye explain it a little bit, squid business?

This is understandable. I do not always make myself clear, I am sorry to say. Slow of tongue, they said, when I was young. Indeed, I spoke so little that my father had to get out two more sons just to hold conversation.
A thane lord, was he? And so he is now, and thus we all are, tribal thane lords, that is.
The squid business is wonderful. One has to have a love of the sea to do so, and has to be weary of the sea's defenses (i.e. the ghost ships and the kraken), but otherwise it is very good going. My grandfather fought a kraken once, brought it down, riding it to the beaches from the sea, and killing it when it was terrorizing the sea shore of Spain. That's how he became a hero. And so, you see, the sea is in my veins. Come down to my dock tomorrow and I'll take you aboard the squiding boat, and we'll hunt.

* Enters the tavern. The room is in the darkness. No one there. Some food is still on the tables. Food that seems at least a few centuries old.
Anyone here?
* Walks slowly inside but no one answers. Gets a candle and lights it. Looks around and sees his steps are the first in many many years. Spends a few hours carefully registering all the tavern, but nothing can give him a clue of what happened here. Leaves the building with an unpleasant feeling in his mind.

*Enters the room*
*Cough. cough*
´´Ah, this is a*cough* mess!´´
´´Ferdinando! Felipo!Clear this room!´´
*two servants enter the room, looking pretty much scared*
´´Ah!There you are, you heard me, start cleaning! And go downstairs and check if there is something left on the storage, Felipo!"
´´Señor, es mui escuro, & tambien mui peligroso aqui``
´´I don´t care if it is dark or dangerous here! Go downstairs and clean it! And don´t act as if you had seen a ghost! In this age of thinkers and wise-men, it is an abuse you still believe in the tales of F-PRO´s ghost! In fact Señor F-Pro would be very proud of this were his ghost really here´´
´´Si señor´´
´´And be quick, I want this back into work soon! I willexpand this into a larger area, and make of this a tribute to what it was in the early days!´´

Hmm the tavern has a new owner? It has been closed for years. My grandfather told me about him coming here from time to time when he was young. His brother used to play the lyre. Oh that were good days. Ah.

It will be interesting to see the Tavern open again. It is said that my uncle Eduardì Pikesfan only went to the Tavern once in his life, and that was because Aunt Marìa happened to be out of town.
A tall old man opens the door and a cold wind howls as it brings the chill of outside into the tavern. The old man turns and closes the door with little effort despite the protests of the wind.
With an air of authority (think picard) he approaches the counter. Barkeep, I want an ale and a room. I'm staying for a while, maybe indefinitely.
On closer inspection the man might not be as old as he looks, there is still much vigour and a strong spirit within, but he projects an air of exhaustion.
Slowly he walks to a free table, seats himself and starts drinking his ale.
After a while he produces a quill and many pieces of scribbled paper. Good beer, he mutters to himself and writes.
*brings the ale*
Hey, here you are, senor.
I am sorry I have to greet you in such a dusty and noisy room. As you see, I am rebuilding most of the place in stone, and the upper area´s floor was totally eaten by those pesky termites!
Well, it will be 5 bones .
*whipes the dust off the table*
yeah, I don´t like those bones either, but I heard some guy talking about building standard weight gold shields, small ones, and using them instead of bones... go figure!
Well, have a good day.

Standard weight shields? For the spirits! That would be a good idea! I'm tired of having to take my money slaves with me when I'm going to the market. Having the weight all the gold and silver is really annoying!

Hola señores. How are you?
Señor Winterius, do you have stout too? One stout for me please.

"Do any of you mitchell nuts ever drink alcohol? It's a BAR for pete's sake."
* Stufpos says no and gets his water glass. *
