Avdol orders a cup of tea and a loaf of bread.  Working as a farm help doesn't pay much and the money he earned from the army has long run out.  As he sits there waiting for his food, he starts to wonder what a group of veterans are doing in a peaceful southern town like this.....

The tavern door was pushed open as a tall fgure stepped through the doorway. Standng 6'3sh n heght wth a slender frame that looked almost fragle. A second inspecton showed that hs frame was made up entrely of muscle, and was not so fragile at all, especially in a shining suit of scale armor. Red hair cut short, his face was stern as his deep violet eyes glazed around the room.

Vetreans, quite a few of them. I reconize some of their faces, but I can't remember any names. I've seen too many to remember them all.

Brandis walked over to the barkeep, ordering a glass of their ale, and headed towards the table that was nearly full of the former soldiers.

"Why, there must be a party in our honoir, only explanation I can think of for the amount of vetreans in this room, I'm Brandis. I know I've seen you guys on the front before, but I can't recal any names I'm afraid to say."

"Great, here comes another one," thought Avdol as he saw the tall half-elf walked in.

 Violet calls for another ale. "I'm Violet. Most soldiers just called me Sarge. What brings you to these parts?"

I have moved Avdol to where I intended him to be because he is trying to avoid the soldiers.  By the way, am I supposed to be able to edit the map like that?

Ok, everyone can give me a preception check and let me know if you want to do anything or see what happens.

Violet stands a few moments after Brandis and moves over a bit (2 squares east). She stands at parade rest, missing nothing, but not starting trouble either.

"No. Everything is fine. This is just a private discussion between old freinds" States the warrior in the middle resting his hand on the longsword at the his side. You also notice that he has a crossbow across his back and hear the framilar chime of chainmail when he turns to regard you. One of his 'freinds' turns to regard you, his hand on his mace while the other two turn back to the cowering man. 

The leader of the group, a scarred man in chainmail, leans menacingly over the table of the patron. “You’re the one, ain’t you?” he asks. The other man recoils in the booth, mumbling. You hear him manage to stutter, “I—I—d-don’t know what you’re talking about.” The scarred man seizes the shirt of the tavern patron, fumbles with the man’s shirt collar, and yanks out a holy symbol.

You all notice the rest of the tavern patrons edging towards the north door.
