The Captain's Hunger
Grishnahk watched as Penn exited, and he took a bite of the cheese sitting on his pate. He had no money to pay for meat, so he made the choice to steal some to quench his piercing hunger.
Slowly he stood from his table and walked a few feet before arriving at the door. He opened it and slipped outside to find another door or window into the kitchen.
