Aruna arrived in the kitchen as Rhia was busily balancing several platters on her arms. “Grillian asked me to--” she started.

“Oh good, yer 'ere!” the stressed barmaid exclaimed. “'Ere, take these, would you. They're for Rendahl and the big guy at the table by the door, the blonde one with the muscles.” Rhia gave a girlish little growl when she described the patron, and Aruna grinned, giving her a teasing look. “What? A girl needs a little look now an' again!” Rhia replied merrily, and shoved two platters at Aruna.

Aruna took the platters and headed out the door into the dining area. She looked around briefly, trying to ascertain the whereabouts of the two men. Rendahl was in his previously indicated booth, talking with a blonde man who made even the well-muscled Grillian look like a gangly teenage boy. Being as he was the only tall, muscular blonde in the room, Aruna assumed that was the customer Rhia had described, and made her way toward the booth.
