[DTA 11/04/22] Re-forging a relationship
Having not been paid for her prio week's work, Ana is determined not to let herself be driven away by Samed's uncharacteristic decision. She decides to to work a taxing DTA back at the Smithy, in hope of earning her wages as usual in addition to maybe finding out what was behind the shady events from last week.
She earns a comfortable lifestyle (her usual room in the Three-Headed Dragon, and some very good eating!).
She also earns Samed's gratitude for her loyalty, although she is not entirely convinced by his explanation of his predicament from last week... after he lets her in on the embarrassing "fact" that one of his noble clients was not pleased with the quality of work received and therefore chose not to pay him.
Apparently, the matter is awaiting its court date, but Samed sighs "rich people have a way of outlasting us craftsmen with their armies of lawyers..."
Ana thinks there might be more to these events, and regardless wants to see that the smithy isn't further jeopardised by whatever the real cause is. However, she sees that there's nothing to be done about it right now, and she has done what she can to maintain her relationship with Samed in the meantime. She thinks that once her next adventure is over, she'll be ready for a change of scene - Fort Ettin perhaps?
