After Marcus spent a couple of minutes getting caught up with the owner of the Towering Bear, he asked to rent two rooms. One with two beds and another with one.
"Sure, that will be no problem. Along with the stabling cost for your beast it comes out to three gold a night."
Pulling out a pouch full of money, Marcus dropped it on the counter and said, "This should be more than enough for a month. If there is any extra feel free to keep it as a tip."
Opening the bag, the owner of the inn went wide eyed as the small pouch was filled with not gold coins but platinum coins.
Whistling loudly, he quickly pocketed the pouch and grabbed the keys to two of the best rooms in the inn.
"Normally we only serve breakfast for free along with the renting of a room, but for you the kitchen is open anytime at no cost."
Thanking the owner for his hospitality, Marcus happily took the keys and beckoned his tired companions to follow him.
