The waitress approached Mordecai, holding the glass out in front of her. She was slightly hesitant yet managed to complete the task. She handed the glass to Mordecai who reached out and took it with his large hand. A small smile escaped, creasing up the side of his mouth. The waitress took a few steps back, again hesitantly, but was soon pleased to see Mordecai taking a sip. The waitress turned around and returned to behind the tavern counter.

Mordecai's table remained topside down on the floor. Using just one of his hands, muscular Mordecai lifted the solid wooden table and placed it back in its position. He pulled up the closest chair and was just about the sit down when, once again, Krindulmar became the focus of his attention. Mordecai stared in wonder at the hooded figure who was simply looking down and sipping his drink. Mordecai wanted to know more.

With his drink in hand, Mordecai walked slowly towards Krindulmar's table, stepping over the body on the floor. Krindulmar didn't look up. He made it to the table and after a brief pause he pulled out the seat opposite Krindulmar and sat down. The robed figure remained looking downwards at his glass, like he had some other sense that knew of Mordecai's close proximity. Mordecai begun to drink his drink, unsure of what it was exactly. The glass was quickly empty because of his size. He placed his glass down on the table, realising that he and Krindulmar had become the main focus of the bar. Everyone watched to see what would happen. Mordecai was the first to approach Krindulmar apart from the waitresses.

The moment seemed to drag on. Everyone focused on Mordecai. Mordecai stared questioningly at Krindulmar. Krindulmar remained looking downwards, at his now empty glass. The moment was soon interrupted. The tavern door flung open and there were two guards, doing their regular checks of the brawlers bar. Immediately they saw the limp body sprawled on the floor and the dominant guard didn't hesitate to become verbal. "Who did this?" was the feared sentence that left his mouth. Silence typically followed as people become fearful. "Who did this?" he repeated in a louder and more severe tone. He begun to pace around the room, soon coming upon the body on the floor. Krindulmar was the closest to the body and the guard didn't hesitate to interrogate the mysterious man. "You did this?" Krindulmar remained unmoved. "I said, you did this?" Enraged by being ignored, the guard pulled out his baton, ready for action.
