(Where)

- Barm the cook.
- Tortles - Micah, Donut, Ruff and Leon.
- Splitter.
(What happened)
Was eating. Then the cook exclaimed that rats had eaten through the inn's stocks. Gold offered for extermination. Mercernaries lined up almost immediately. Looks like jobs are scarce around here, too. Just my luck.
Dragonborns, silver and green, inspected the foodstore. A Goliath, clad in steel, joined them. Green horns, the whole lot. Fell through rotten baseboards into cavern beneath during examination. A lupin joined the fall, although that seemed more voluntary than accident. Graceless lot.
Barm brought ladder. The rest of the mercenaries, including two Aarakocra posers, climbed down. Cavern smells of vermin. Echoed with their calls too.
Alas, the vermins themselves are nowhere in sight. We met four tortles having cheesy flatbread for meal (No pineapples? Ugh) . They bristled at the interruption. The Graceless lot struck first. Greenhorn blood, I guess. They managed to strike one down before I could act. Beginner's luck, I suppose.
Then a Ratfolk appeared. He offered a block of smelly cheese (ew!) as peace offering.
Suddenly, the vermin swarmed the place. Smell of cheese stronger than their droppings, methinks.
After extermination complete, Tortles and Ratfolk fled. I promised I'd spar with them anytime. We returned to the inn to claim our bounty.
