Garruk jumps and pounds Grunts face. Grunt kicks garruk off of him and stabs him in the leg with the bottom end of his greatclub, Garruk falls to one knee and Grunt headbutts Garruk killing garruk. Grunt plants his boot to Garruks chest decapitates Garruk and shows his head to the tavern. The tavern stares in horror except for one Bold, dark haired muscular built barmaid wearing a cleavage barring barmaid dress lifts her chin to invite him, he drops the head and grabs her by the hair, she bites his arm and punches his gut. He smiles at her, she turns her face away with a smile. As he pursues her a cloaked assassin appears and stabs grunt in the back. Grunt throws the assassin over his shoulder, puts his foot on his groin and stabs the assassin in the heart with the bottom end of his greatclub tearing open the assassins chest and rips out the assassins heart. Grant pulls the heart to give to the ignoring barmaid, he drops it off the end and pursues her. He ask for her name she replies with Lysa. Bleeding everywhere he walks and looking pail, she sits him down and says with an aggravated tone, let me bind these wounds before you decide to get in your next fight and bleed out. Grunt sits and says that assassin must of been a warning from the gods to treat you better before I bed you tonight. Binding his wounds lysa tightens one of the bandages tight enough to sting and says I'm not a whore. Grunt apologizes again and mentions he is hunting the dragon terrorizing these parts how about I personally deliver the head and heart to you. Lysa with a brief grin says you can do that and earn my respect but not my bed, I am not some whore you can buy off with gifts, now hold still while I put this healing concoction on. The burning sensation calms Grunt and his face shifts to a realization of answering a call from the dead long ago that he has avoided for glory and pleasure. Grunt looks down toward lysa and says, I apologize for everything, I will dispose of the 2 bodies I left, burn them, clean all the blood and rest for the night. I'm not going to deny I want you in bed but I will earn your trust and respect before I do this. Lysa says it's okay you don't have to do that. Before she can finish the sentence he gets up covers his wounds and disposes of the bodies, cleans up all the blood, sets to the bodies keeping Garruks head in his pack with the assassins heart. Grunt pays for rest for the evening and heads to his room for the evening while lysa secretly watches over him. He wakes up in the morning his wounds and bruises totally gone briefly questioning it then decides to pay it no mind and heads down for a meal. After he is done with his meal he finds lysa easily throwing ale barrels around to their places. Grunt says to her you are pretty and strong, I take it you know how to fight? She says well enough not to end up like that, pointing to Garruks head slipping out of Grunts bag. Would you like to test that strength for coin and arm wrestle me? The arm wrestling match draws a crowd as lysa and Grunt are straining and sweating lysa murmers something during g her strain and slams Grunts arm down smashing the table. Grunt gets up and panting says you really are strong. Panting lysa says your not the first brute I have taken down but you are the first to make me break a table, as she downs a glass of ale. Grunt pays her the coin for the match and whispers to her ear, I am coming back with the head and heart of the dragon you will be my strength for this battle. She smiles and laughs saying, if you fair better than you did here against that dragon drinks and rooms will be free for you for all eternity. Grunt walks out of the tavern and lysa watches out the window goes into a trance and a gold protection glow forms around Grunt. Him not knowing where it came from looks to the sky acknowledges the gods and the dead and says okay. Grunt presses forward toward the dragon lair.
