He set his junk back down and sat, slowly growing more alert as he woke up.

A merry little maid came bustling up to their table, all rosy cheeks and big white smile. "Good morning," she greeted them in a high-pitched trill, hardly paying any notice to Masquerade's odd appearance. "Can I help you?" The blue-skinned woman smiled vaguely, and replied, "Yes. Whatever you're serving this morning is fine- just make sure it's got lots of protein." The maid nodded. "Sausage and biscuits. The same for both of of you?" She glanced at Tobias.

"Mm-hm, and if you happen to have any juice of some sort, that'd be just dandy..." he glanced up at her.

"Sure thing!" the maid chirped, heading off to the kitchen. She returned a few minutes later with two plates full of food and two cups balanced on a tray. She placed them on the table, giving them a big smile before she went off again.

He smiled, grabbing the cup and taking a big swig before starting on his breakfast. "So the agenda for today consists of...?"

Masquerade was quiet for a moment, chewing, and them swallowed, glancing up at him. "Investigating. I heard some rumors about some sorcerers based up to the north, in the Dragonlands. And there was also something about a Charter Mage around these parts. Maybe even two Mages. I want to find out more, and find out what they're up to."

"Sounds good, I guess. Do we consider both these groups our enemy?" He munched on a biscuit.

"Depends on what we find out today. If they seem like a threat to my plans, then yes, they could be..." She bit down into a piece of sausage, staring at her plate.

"Mm," He rested his chin on his palm, watching others eat and talk.

Masquerade cleaned her plate, tucking one biscuit into her pack for later, and stood up. The maid appeared at once, taking her plate, and the blue-skinned girl flicked a coin down on the table as a tip. The maid's eyes widened in surprise, but she quickly scooped it up, going on about her work.

"You're awfully generous," he pointed out, standing up as well. He watched the maid move on and smiled just slightly, slinging his pack over his shoulder and positioning his sword on his back.

Masquerade did not reply, just silently lead the way out onto the street. There she paused, glanced around, and set off at a brisk pace down the road.

He followed after her, keeping an eye out. He felt more like a body guard than anything else, really.

Masquerade paused to take a breather after a while of wandering down mostly deserted streets; it was still pretty early for market-goers and shop-keepers to be out and about. She dropped her pack on the side of the road and dug out her waterskin, taking a gulp or two before offering it to Tobias. She smirked as she looked at him, and commented, "You're awfully quiet. Most people I've tried hiring are already prying for my secrets and plans and blathering away about their skills and how they won't fail me and yahdah yahdah yahdah." She mimicked talking with her fingers and thumb, opening and closing them like the beak of a bird.

He took it with a nod of thanks. "I'm just hired to fight, talking wasn't a part of the deal, if I remember correctly," he took a swig from the waterskin and handed it back, not meeting her gaze. "Strictly business."
