I just came across a unique group of misfits in a tavern one evening. In this group are two humans, one was some kind of hardass warrior-type who no doubt has some experience in a fight. Maybe we can share some stories sometime? The other one was a bard looking to make some coin before moving to another town. He played well and kept good company. I hope I get to see him more in the coming weeks. There was also a Dragonborn and a fellow halfling. I didn't speak to the brass-plated mega-lizard much, but the accented halfling has plans of moving to a new town. Maybe that could be an out? A chance to experience more? Anyways, there we were, downing shots and mugs like this was the last bar in the empire when talk about a river that's flowing in reverse came up. Apparently, a few of them wish to investigate and will leave town in pursuit of such answers. Maybe this could be the start of something new? As much as I miss my former group, I can't help but feel excited about where this life will lead. This specifically is what I've been missing out on while I was busy smooth talking a guard into looking the other way or creeping into a dwarve's shack, something real, something different, something that would helpme fill these otherwise blank pages. Apparently, there's guard captain in town, too. Maybe I could find something interesting there? Time will tell.
