"Well, you made it all the way here." the shopkeeper says.  "You must have
learned something, eh?"

"Yeah," Bongo replies.  "I wanted to check out some maps."

As Alex and Amanda talk, they hear the commotion at the door.  Glancing
back they see an Elf standing in the doorway, and Lena laughing.

The strange Elf replies, "Greetings my lady. That is an interesting
question.  Let me finish with this delivery and I will get back to you."

The Elf walks past the rest of the company, puts the crate down on the
counter and says, "Good day Mr. Griz this crate is from captain
Jeremiah. My you enjoy it."

The shopkeeper laughs.  "Good old Jeremiah.  Strange messenger he gets,
though."

The Elf turns back to Lena.  "Ok now that I'm done in answer to your
question I do not believe that I and your companion have ever met.  But
as for the question of relations."  He turns to Arden and puts out his
and and says, "Greetings I am Talas Leaf-Blade of the Ava-Niel Clan.
Whom might you and the young lady be, friend?"
