After a short while littlefair returns with three nutshells full of carrot 
juice, a small bowl full of differrent nuts and a piece of parchament, quill 
and some ink. Small fellow with the medallion puts his hand into his, quite 
large, saddlebag and with effort pulls a gold coin out.
	"'Ere you are, sir. I hope this covers all expences on our side", 
the leader says with very exaggerated common. It seems that he has been 
practicing these phrases for some while. 
	He puts the coin on the table, and takes the quill. The two others 
are still talking to each other, but their language seems to consist only of 
consonants and resemble more the chittering of the squirrels than any known 
tongue. They take hold of the parchament and the third starts to write 
something on it.
	Some time passes, and with great effort the small men get their job 
done.	
	"Sir... Bartender!", shouts the leader. Littlefair comes to them.
	"Could you put this on your bulletin board, even though it is a news 
announcement, more than an advert?"
	"Sure I can. But listen, that stuff I just served you doesn't cost 
me anything so it's on the house.", says Littlefair and takes the paper from 
the leader.

	After Littlefair has put this announcement on the board,he returns 
to the Squiichar.
	"So you are the famous squirrel riders! Bad things moving 'round, 
eh?", he asks.
	"Yes, the Evil is spreading accross the Tantoln Forrest, Our home. 
Three of the most ancient cities have been chopped down and destroyed. 
Casualities are rising at the very moment, as enraged Elhantor are eating 
their way through our lands. They eat Flesh of our people!
	"But now We must go and return to the battlefields. We sincerely 
hope some help from you Big Ones..."
	By saying this, Amachiak mouns his steed (as teh other two have done 
already), and takes off towards the door climbing on the wall and ceiling...

	Jozma :-)
