*A certain Giff is drinking ale in the bar. His Dragonborn partner isn’t there, however. Odd seeing the two apart. Though it’s natural to have time alone. Especially for this ever-anxious hippo.*

*walking over* You alright, Oz?

*The hippo hums.* “Perhaps. Or, I mean that I will be.” *A large gulp of ale is taken from the bucket he typically drinks from. Stoic Oswald. Who struggles to communicate his thoughts. To all but Shadzaar.* “Shadzaar and I had a… disagreement.” *His tone is careful. Hesitant.* (edited)

Oh dear....*sits on the sofa* Tell me what happened, Brother

*Another drink, and a sigh. As though he’s secretly relieved to have an opportunity to talk of it.* “It is concerning Lily and Asani’s fencing of the deed to our home. He believes that he should seek a form of revenge. ‘Blood for blood,’ I believe he said.” *His large head hangs. The concern is palpable.* “I do not. I forgave them, but he cannot find it in himself to yet. It is… it makes me sad.”

Aw, Oz, it'll be okay. Sometimes forgiveness takes time and patience. Especially for someone who's been hurt in the past like Shad. Just let him come to terms on his own, and see what happens

“That is not all.” *Oz adds. His tone lower than before. Sadder, somehow. The hand holding the bucket tightens slightly. Betraying his reluctance to continue. Though he does anyway.* “He said hurtful things to me that I do not believe he meant.“ *There it is. The first bump in their relationship.* “He called me weak for wanting to forgive them. I know he is regretting it. And it worries me he will do something rash in his anger.”

Ah, well...I guess that complicates things a little....I could send Fernessa after him?

“They are friends… I do not think he would mind much. I cannot. I… the hurt is still too fresh. I do not like talking when upset.” *With that he turns back to his bucket of ale. Gulping down a large mouthful. His free hand picks at a splinter in the wood.*

Alright big guy....I'll uhm...get more ale

*Humming in acknowledgment, the Giff drinks the last of his ale.*

*leaves to get more....and to tell Fernessa about Shad*

*comes back with barrels upon barrels of ale all being levitated*

After Oz had his fair share of Ale eventually he departed to go on a long reflecting walk while everyone else in the area went on about their business and Nazmir went home.
