Belle is a little embarrassed at her actions but it worked. Glad her mask covers any expression she might have.

"If I don't wear my mask, I might attract a different sort of attention. Somebody may very well recognize me from my previous life," the Apok responds. "I have been told that I do almost look like a different woman but it is very possible that I might meet somebody who knew me before I fell."

She pauses for a few moments to let it sink in, "We are not going to be inconspicuous no matter what and I do not think we can trust the goblin on its own even restrained. You perhaps could go off on your own, but I do not know any other options."

Daniel looks at Belle with a smile,"About the goblin,I couldn't agree with you more. But about your beauty and past ,we all got a past . And your looks , you should be blessed . I seen some who wasn't so lucky."

"Someday I may tell you about my background," Belle responds. "I could probably just wear a hood however so that I am less obvious. Still, it leaves us with the goblin."

With their talking, Belle assumes that the goblin is awake by now.

Daniel looks at Belle with a smile,"Well just don't think to much into appearances."

Belle gives a black look back at Daniel, not really known what he means. Otherwise, if the goblin has not woken up, she will prod the creature.

With all the talk, the goblin soon wakes up and looks around. "Hungry. Got food?" he says without preamble.

OOC: Just a reminder that it's okay to discuss things, but at some point you need to state actions. I can't respond well to basic discussions since I don't have an NPC in your group at the moment (besides Skeek, that is.)

ooc: I was waiting to see if Gerard had anything more to say.

ic: Belle stands up and slides her cloak on, "Nothing more is going to get settled by discussing this. Let us go downstairs and get some food. Maybe we will have better luck this morning." With that she steps out the door, keeping the goblin in front of her. She will hurry him along but not violently.

OOC: I believe you said the mask is on. Let me know if I'm mistaken. I'm also going under the assumption the everyone followed.

IC: The stairs are solid underfoot and the smell of food is stronger the closer they get to the floor. As Belle and Skeek enter the room, the voices begin to dwindle until only one person can be heard across the room. Even that soon stops as the woman realizes that things have gone silent around her.

"Maybe we eat in room?" Skeek says in a hushed voice.

The silence is broken by the owner's strong voice. "Sit where you will, I'll bring you some food. Your prisoner better behave himself or you'll answer to the guard."

A number of tables hastily consume the remainder of their food and depart the inn with a nervous glance in Belle's direction.

Gerard notices one man that might have paid a little bit of extra attention before returning to his plate.

Belle had not thought everything through. She looks towards the owner, "Thank you."

After looking around for a moment, the Apok finds a place where she can watch the Goblin, "Sit down there." Her voice is commanding but not threatening.

After the creature sits down, Belle will find a seat herself, keeping watch. After a few moments, she pulls her mask off and slides the hood of her robes over her face. "I am sorry, I do not mean to scare you or frighten away customers," she states to the owner. Her mask is off but her face is mostly in shadow. One can probably see that he features are female and from the lines, likely an extremely attractive one.

"I'm going to check on Zeke first then I'll come back for some food. I'll ask about to see if anyone has seen our friends as well. Anyone need anything while I'm out and about?"
