Characters:RavenLogs/AA Mom

At last, dutifully and less than enthusiastically, Raven goes in search of her mother.

The inn stands where she expects it. Curiously, it's quite busy, with people sitting in the courtyard, under the scrubby trees. There are more horses than usual, and she sees her mother's scullery-maid fetching water from the well.

Raven stops short at the sight, and mutters, "Huh." Busy, she wasn't expecting - not this busy, anyway. It suggests that things have changed around here, which doesn't make her want to go inside any more than she did before. At least the yard is the same - and the scullery-maid, who might just know what's going on.

She changes direction slightly, heading for the well and the maid instead of the front door. "Need help with that bucket?" she asks casually when she's in speaking range.
