After the words

[Iron Dragoon]

"Indeed. How about yourself? How did you come to run an inn here?"

[Anastasia]

"Oh, my grandmother left it to me, and her grandmother left it to her," Is the answer, "It's a nice place to be, and who can argue with a place to call your own?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"I've found that's what most good people want. I'm building my realm on it, in fact. Shaundakul has sent me some of his wanders to start. If you happen to have visitors who are looking to make something their own, please send them our way.

I'm building up an Academy to help train our people, as well."

[Anastasia]

"I could do that, dear," IS the answer, "Which way is it?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"Oh, you know how these places work. If they want to find it, they'll be led to it, eventually. It's the knowing and wanting that's key."

[Anastasia]

"So that's what you want, more people to your academy?" Is the answer, "What lessons do you teach there?"

[Iron Dragoon]

"Magic mainly. I'm expanding it to include as many skills as I can, however. We're going to try to make magic available for as many as we can, and use it to improve lives.

There's magic, for example, that can help crops grow. Keep homes warm. Make travel less taxing. Translation magic for trade. Magic that will help goods and food from spoiling."

[Anastasia]

"Magic? I'll tell anyone who looks like they could use it," The old woman says, "It'll make for more interesting conversations, dear."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Anyone. Farmers, the lost, anyone. We want to use magic for the community."

[Anastasia]

"The more the better," Ianvasah says, "We need manpower."

"Then anyone," The old woman agrees.

[Iron Dragoon]

"What about you? Do you need anything?"

[Anastasia]

"Oh yes. There's some trees out back - could you go out there and cut wood?" she asks, "I'm getting too old to do it easily."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Easily. Come, Ianvasah."

[Anastasia]

Outside there's several trees in the back, along with plenty of loose wood and branches. Ianvasah gestures, "An elemental could do it easily enough," she suggests.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods and pulls at one of the trees with her TK.
