[Feared Half-Elf]

Elkamia put down the ale barrel she carried, and realised that the woman and man had gone back inside the Inn. The stairs to the second floor had just collapsed as she had left, and now she hurried back into the ruined building.

The man and women stood near the stairs, along with the Hobbit she had seen theiving the night before and the man that she had seen a while earlier enter the Inn. The woman looked up at her, and spoke to the man next to him. She was coughing again, and Elkamia realised that she was allergic to smoke, or something like that. The wet cloth over her own nose and mouth protected her from the smoke, many years of experience told her that a wet cloth repelled most of the smoke.
