Maya turned to give the Janarim some thought. Narrowing her eyes at the beast. As far as she could recall, the Janarim had never been hooked up to any load bearing tool before. It was certainly powerful enough to pull a wagon. Getting it to cooperate and behave, was probably going to be another problem all on it's own.

"I haven't tried that before. It might take some work. And we would likely have to walk back instead of riding. As powerful as that beast is, it's not strong enough to haul you, me, and three barrels back."

The alkidike turned to look the earthling over. "I'm not opposed to trying, and if it will save you some coin. I'm all for the attempt." Maya responded.

Moving towards the creature Maya took hold of the lead around it's head. "You've got a new job to do today Janarim." Maya spoke to the animal, ignoring the way it yanked it's head to the side. Obstinate against the restraints now placed on it.

"I just wish not to put any strain on your companion if the load proves too much. The barrels can be quite heavy." There was concern in Owaen's voice as he watched Maya talk to her mount before heading into the Dock Mater's office.

After a few moments, he returned with another slip of paper as a wagon was brought around and three barrels more than half of Owaen's height were loaded into it. It took two men to load each barrel into the wagon, setting them up on their ends to not upset the cargo within. Afterwards the men gave a wave and went back to their other work.

"Thanks for the help!" He called after the men, giving a wave of his own before turning back. "Well, here goes nothing. I'm going to still be soaked before reaching the tavern, but I can always offer a warm meal for both of you and a dry place to stay until the rain passes." As he was saying that, the sky seemed to just open up and drops of rain were falling fast and fat.

Maya looked puzzled at the concern shown for the beast. but shrugged the emotion off. "I wouldn't worry about putting strain on the Janarim. If anything, I can just give him some extra rest once hes completed the task. He is a working animal after all and the work will do him some good anyway. Keep him calmer in the long run if you know what I mean."

The alkidike watched cautiously as the barrels were brought around with the cart. Surprised at the size of the objects. She had somehow expected something much smaller than what was presented.

"I would always welcome a meal." Maya cheerfully replied. Grabbing the Janarims head restraints to pull the beast around towards the wagon. Every so often she would lift her foot up to tap against the beasts side to encourage him to shuffle that part of his body in the direction she needed him to go. Then slowly backed him up into the contraptions fittings.

It took her a moment of exploring and some fiddling around before she was able to work out how to attach the cart to her Janarim. Ignoring the unwelcome growls from the beast as he protested against the restraints. Eventually settling.

"There that autta do it. We will still have to walk, but should get there easily enough. Shall we?"

Maya gave a tug on the lead and the wagon began moving.

Owaen gave the woman a puzzled look when she mentioned that the Janarim was a working animal and that this work would help keep it calmer. Though would it really? He would think that it would put more stress on the beast then anything else. But he merely gave a mental shrug as he watched her deftly hitch the wagon up to the Janarim and started moving.

"If you are sure." He was still on the fence about the whole thing, but it seemed that the wagon wasn't going to be that big of a problem. "I will make sure that the cook has something special for your companion and a warm place to rest."

He knew of the stables that were for housing large beasts that some people brought with them. Not that it was overly used, a lot of people just traveling by foot or steam contraptions. Not too many large beasts around for pulling carts.

The walk was a bit of a long wet one. Pushing against the blustery winds that started passing through the streets. Owaen covered his face with his arms in an attempt to to shield his face. Did he really have to get these things today? Surely they could have really waited. Shaking his head, his fiery orange hair clung to his face as he peered through the rain as the tavern loomed closer.

"There's the tavern, the Averin's Roost." He pointed towards the winging sign with the Tavern's name on it. "Have to pull it into the side alley, it will be a little drier and it leads to the stables." He headed in the direction of the alley that he had ran out of earlier. It looked narrow, but it was big enough to pull almost two carts in side by side.

"Oh Aisha's blessing." Maya mumbled. She was grateful that luck had been on their side. With the rain pouring down as hard and heavy as it was. The alkidike wondered if there was the threat of the wagon getting stuck in the mud or some crack somewhere. Causing them more trouble. Thankfully that wasn't the case. Nodding as she continued to walk alongside the earthling. Maya thanked him for the kind offer, happy that the day had not been a complete waste. Maybe bumping into random strangers was something she could start making a habit of if giving them a bit of help meant food.

The downside, her dreads would take hours to dry now that they were very soaked through. Her clothing not so much. After offering to help lift the barrels into the required delivery post Maya unhitched her janarim to stable him while she filled her belly with the offered food.

Owaen with the help of those who worked at the Tavern were quick to move the yeast into the cellar where it was stored. The barrels were left to dry before being cracked open. Upstairs Owaen ordered food for both Maya and her companion who was out in the stables. The fire was roaring in the fireplace to ward off the cold and damp that was outside. The dark wood interior of the tavern was warm and inviting to anyone who was looking for a place to stay while the weather wasn't the greatest.

"Looking like the weather will be this way until tomorrow. Mick has said that there is a room upstairs that you can stay in." Owaen says as he cleans up the dishes from the table, "While I will make the dash home after my shift is over. Hope you enjoy your stay here at the Averin's Roost. And that your travels be safe ones."

Giving another smile towards the Alk, Owaen bustled away to take the dishes to the kitchens and soon carrying a tray of mugs towards another table as he continues working.
