The Green Dragon - Part 2

[Frodo Baggins]

Rirrym had caught Cromthal in the midst of an exceptionally large yawn.

"Oh excuse me. I guess I am more tired than I thought. Yes bed sounds like a good idea."

As they were heading back to the room, Rirrym asked."If I may be so forward, Cromthal, How do you have so much money?"

Cromthal smiled "My master gave me a goodly amount when I left, and I have used some of it. However, at times, I used my bardic or healing talents to pay for lodging in the odd farmhouse or inn."

"Oh it's cold in this room." He continued. "I assure you, Master Rirrym, I do not snore except when I have a headcold, and I am not at all ill now." Cromthal smirked, helping Rirrym turn down the bed. "And don't be worried about your snoring, if you do, I'm a rather hard sleeper."

Cromthal quickly stripped down to the white linen shift he wore under his robe and climbed in bed. Curling up into his customary ball and pulling the sheet and quilt nearly over his head.
