Great!

To the Hanged Man for now, then?

Fine by her.

Then there they shall go.

Kirkwall is a very vertical city, built into the cliffs around a natural deep-water harbor. That's where most goods and people flow in and out of the city, and the heavy manufacturing is concentrated in that area too. Hightown, where they entered, is the nice part of the city and about as far away from the factories as it's possible to get. Hightown has the noble estates, the upscale markets, the viscount's keep, the Chantry. Below Hightown is Lowtown, appropriately enough, and that's where most of the city's population live. It's not as nice as Hightown, on a sort of sliding scale based on proximity to the docks (closer is less nice). Underneath the main streets of Kirkwall is Darktown, a rank, musty warren of sewers and old mining tunnels. If you're too poor even for Lowtown, Darktown is where you squat, assuming you don't get shivved for taking someone else's spot.

The Hanged Man is in Lowtown, which means they'll have to descend a few levels from the gate they entered by. The elevators are closing by now, so the stairs are their only option. The tavern takes up most of one of the bulky stone buildings, and has a carved wooden figure dangling upside down from a noose around its ankle to mark the entrance.

None of her companions seem particularly bothered by the stairs. 

Does Hawke want to handle buying the rooms? 

Permalink

Since they haven't gotten paid yet, she can. How many do they need?

Permalink

Katana and Hisame can definitely share...

Permalink

She wouldn't mind also sharing with Lyli or Wyld-sensei.

Permalink

"I'm alright sharing with the squirts."

Permalink

"You and me might want our own room though," she says to Hawke with a wink. 

Permalink

"So I am being drafted."

Permalink

"Can't pass up an opportunity like this."

Permalink

"Fair enough, I suppose. Two rooms, then."

Permalink

"Excellent."

Permalink

So Hawke will go negotiate for a pair of rooms. "Might as well grab a table. Any drinks while I'm at it?"

Permalink

"Whatever you're having."

Permalink

"...Tea?"

Permalink

"What're the options?"

Permalink

"Beer, house wine, whiskey, water- which I don't recommend, black tea which should be fine since it gets boiled..."

Permalink

" - Bad water purification systems, then?"

Permalink

"For a generous definition of the word 'system', sure, you could say that."

Permalink

"...Not sure I like your city."

Permalink

"It grows on you. Like a fungus."

Permalink

She makes a face. "Gross."

Permalink

Hawke laughs. "I wasn't born here. Circumstances... conspired, and now I have to make the best of it."
