Kresha is back in town...
-
Kresha is often seen and heard in the Grapevine over the next few weeks. On the rare occasions she leaves the Inn to procure supplies from Gemli, she is dressed in an apron and skirts heavily caked with various baking and cooking ingredients. …she looks healthy and happy, if not a bit tired...
-
_Marie Scuttlestone, the current caretaker of the Grapevine and Guardian of the Sisterhood, is often seen with Kresha, smiling and chatting away as the pair of them work in the kitchens.
Occassionally Marie offers a hint or piece of advice, but those who watch her can tell that she's very pleased with the work and advancement that Kresha has been making, as well as the change in her demeanour._

There seems to also be times when a certain shouldered bird goes beserk on a rowdy patron nipping the hair out of their scalp outside

_Several times a week Kresha will invite one of the long standing members of the militia to inn to have a mug of ale and a meal. Often she will sit with them and converse over past events. Other times, she is called back into the kitchen to attend to whatever immediate culinary matter is required of her.
She seems to have gained a little extra weight while working at the Grapevine shaping her form from that of a lithe warrioress into more of a shapely woman in her prime. Her demeanor has improved greatly from the short tempered guardswoman to that of a rosy cheeked townswoman whom never balks at greeting all who pass by with a "Good morning!" or a bright grin.
Tales are heard of a the occasional tavern customer getting too rowdy and promptly finding their way to the street by her hands.
…and all who work in the tavern know of the well kept set of armor, shield, and sword that hangs in the pantry away from the moisture and heat of the kitchens..._

_Every morning Kresha is seen leaving the Inn for the market, gathering the supplies needed to feed the travelers and townsfolk staying at the Grapevine that day. Her swordsman swagger and stern look, long gone, now replaced by a casual swaying of the hips and a beaming smile. She goes about the business of the Inn greeting those of the town and those just passing through. Some say they even saw her bringing pastries and coffee out to Guardsman Davos and the other guards on duty that day.
…and she even leaves the occasional treat on a window ledge for her bird-like shadow..._

Every time she goes out doors she seems to be followed by a crow. How she acquired this new pet is unknown.
