Me'd also say t' work hard at dem Warrior Guild skills, as dey comes in verra handy!"

Caleanon grins at you.

Caleanon has accepted your offer and is now holding a mug of dark Araime ale.

You take a drink from your dark Araime ale. The flavor is roughly as subtle as a mace across the back of the head.

The mud on Caleanon's face flakes off into tiny bits which crumble to a fine dust.
