Yeah, Nalvos is the publican of the inn. He and his friends mostly stay out of here now, so I shouldn't complain. It doesn't seem that he likes his new job either. I bet he won't stay there for long.

Yes, I'm the publican of this new tavern. I hardly get anything for it, though. First Andas has to get his share and then the governor takes the rest, so I only get to keep what I'm able to hide from them. On top of that, I still have to endure Sulis and Vagoth. But the place is clean and the food is good, so I shouldn't complain.

I can't believe I'm really going to work at the new inn. There has to be a catch -- there always is.

So Nalvos is going to run the new inn? Well, he certainly doesn't have the business sense for such an establishment. I just hope he won't come here to brag about it.

If you somehow get the governor to accept, I would love to work at the new inn.

Don't give me false hope...

It could hardly get any worse than working down here. I'm all in for it.

Do you want me to run the new inn when it's finished? I'd love to, but Alvuru Omayn would never accept that.

Yes, I'm the new publican here. If I would have known it would take so much time to run an inn, I would never have accepted.

I already agreed to run it. I hope my sister will live up to her part of the deal.

Why are you even bothering?

Well, then I can at least be sure that the house won't collapse over the top of my head. That's at least something... I guess I should accept my sister's proposal then, before she changes her mind. I could always hide some of the profits away from her... But if Andas comes and wants a share of it, he can just forget it. That bastard has caused enough trouble for me already.

Well, I have no problem paying for drink, but it does sound wrong for the disowned Olvys to run the town pub while I, a full-blooded Omayn, lack any such authority. You know, I think I'll actually accept my sister's proposal -- I'm sure Olvys will understand. I could always hide some of the profits away from her...

I can get cheap drinks easily enough at the mine pub. I don't need to run an inn for that. Do you have any other reason for me to accept?

You were able to convince her? I'm surprised that she would listen to you but not to me. I guess I should accept before she changes her mind. I could always hide some of the profits away from her...

Don't waste your time. She'll never listen, trust me.

Well, things. There are just better places for me to be.

Whatever.

Been talking to my dear sister, have you? She has to accept that I'm a grown-up man and not a child she can toss around however she wants. I'm a noble just like her, and I deserve better than to run a petty inn. I'm sure her motive is just to keep me away from her power. Well, if she'd listen to me for once and give me something I'm worthy of in return, and fix some other things wrong in town, I might consider her proposal.

So you still want me to run that inn? Why would I change my mind now?

I don't care who will be put in charge of that new tavern, as long as it isn't me.

You made the right choice. I'm sure Olvys Omayn will be an excellent publican for the new inn.

I'm disappointed that you didn't listen to my advice about the publican. But Andas will be the judge, not I.

Just go to the governor once you have convinced Olvys Omayn to accept Andas' condition for running the inn. Focus on your other tasks if she objects.

Well, I suspect the governor would not accept him willingly, but if he agrees to give Andas a share of the profits, Andas will force her to accept. It may still take a while, though, so just focus on your other tasks in case she objects. Anyway, I have to get back to my office now. The governor might get suspicious if she notices that I'm out here talking to you.

Yes, I'm aware the governor would rather want her brother to run the inn. But if you think about it, he has none of the traits that make a good publican. A much better choice would be to put their disowned cousin, Olvys Omayn, in charge. He runs the pub in the mine, so he already has experience of it, and I'm sure he'd be happy to oblige.

Don't remind me.

I'm glad Nalvos finally came to his senses. It is good we didn't need to hire another publican.

I knew it would be difficult to find someone after Nalvos' death! Well, if you really don't think there is anyone qualified around here, I guess I have to give up this commission. That's definitely a better option than hiring one of the miners!

Then keep searching.

So you too want me to hire that bootlicker? I guess I have no other choice than to obey then -- otherwise Andas will strip me of my titles. That doesn't mean I'm going to give Olvys a pleasant time, oh no. Anyway, I'll contact the Hlaalu contractor at once, so the construction of the inn may proceed.

Him? I'm sorry, but that is out of the question. He should be glad that I'm even letting him run that pub in the mine.

I knew he'd agree to it sooner or later! Thanks, I'll have him start working as soon as the inn is finished. Here are a few coins for your trouble. I'll contact the Hlaalu contractor at once to proceed with the construction of the inn.

Had any luck finding a publican for the inn yet?

I don't know where to start, but you could always ask around in town I guess.

I think you should try to convince Nalvos Omayn to change his mind first, but if you are out of luck -- well, you could always ask around in town I guess.
