Went grocery shopping for the inn. Got plenty of vegetables that Mrs. Bell plans to can for the winter. Shes even going to teach me how to can vegetables and preserve fruits! Fun!
Somehow, the entire town has gotten word about an exotic dancer at the Sliced Barnacle...rumors travel fast. But thats okay! It brings in business and the more business the inn gets the more I get paid.
AFter my grocery trip, Lyon and I cleaned up the stables together. He was so sweet. Wouldn't let me do any heavy lifting or major work. I felt like...a lady. A part of me was sickened though, not because of the smell of horse dung, but because a part of me accepts the feminist side of things. O, well. I should be happy, after all there aren't many gentlemen left in this world.
I've already finished my work for today, except for tonight's entertainment of course. Mrs. Bell had me serving pints. O! And I almost forgot! Remember that guy that had carried me up to my room a few nights ago? Well, when I was serving, someone grabbed my butt. But the same cloaked figure threw him across the room and told him to "never ever touch me like that again!"
I was flattered, but he seemed so angry in that moment, I was a little scared. Afterwards, everything got really quiet, but Mrs. Bell came out of the kitchens and threw the offender out into the streets. The cloaked man sat back down and everyone got to talking again. Before I came back into my room to write, I asked Lyon who he was.
He said, looking extremely irritated "Thats Captain Kellen Alore. Stay away from him, Iya. His arrogant and pompous and has no qualms about using a woman and ditching her."
Right, like a captain would want me....wait...I didn't even realize it when Lyon mentioned it! That man was a captain!!! He has a ship?! He must live on the oceans! No wonder he smelled so good! Maybe he'll be out there later tonight...I might get to talk to him about the ocean! o...i miss it so much...
