Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eira turned at the sound of the bell that chimed announcing that new people were arrivng, she turned to give a wave before looking down at those playing at her feet, "Alright you two, I need to see to the customers, play nice." She said, using the toe of her shoe to scratch the snaptrotter Branko under the chin. The big beast was currently lazing behind the bar, playing the part of a jungle gym to her toddler son who was in the midst of learning to walk and needed something to cling onto... that being Branko for the time being.

Turning to the group she called out, "Make yourselves at home, if you'd like anything let me know!" Her attention then went to the one who approached her, giving her best smile, and said, "Isn't that sweet of you to say." To be called a 'breath of fresh air' was compliment enough to put Eira in a good mood, especially given she'd been playing with a baby all day. It was always refresing to get a good compliment, something that always made her feel better about... well, everything.

"So how can I help you and your siblings out?" She asked, feeling that she'd a chat with the cutie would be enjoyable, especially if he continued with the compliments.

Barmaid? Eira blinked a couple times, then gave a bit of a chuckle. Oh, was that what the young man thought? It was kind of cute and given she was behind the bar at the moment she supposed that she could let it slide, especially since he was cute enough. Giving a thoughtful sound she said, "Our finest brew, huh? I'd say that is the stuff I get from my supplier in Dernd. I don't drink a lot of it anymore for obvious reasons, but I can attest to the flavor being good."

Turning Eira moved to fetch two bottles in particular, setting them before the young man, before she said, "This one is made with apples, this one with berries, the latter of which is far sweeter." And by far her favorite of the two, though she wouldn't say as much, not wanting to color his opinion before he tried either. Getting out a pair of glasses she pour a small amount into each and said, "You can have a sample for free, after that you'll have to pay. Your cute face will only get you so much with me." The last part said teasingly.

"Hmmm, stories, huh? I wish I had some interesting news, save for the invasion of Limbara that we had last month nothing too interesting is going on. I have heard rumor that the firebirds, bringers of trouble that they are, have been spotted flying around. Must be getting close to the time when they lay their eggs. I'd rather like to see one close up myself, but I haven't even seen one from a distance since the inn was still under construction, how about you, cutie?"

Eira gave a little smile as she left the bottles on the counter in case he wanted them, leaning against the counter, so that she could look at him, "Drink up, my cute friend, and tell me what you think. If you're interested in either I can let my supplier know, maybe he can introduce you to the one who makes them? No promises though, I can't say what if they want to keep it a secret or not. No harm in asking though."

As the boy mentioned bringing her a feather she gave a happy sound in her throat, clapping her hands together, before bouncing in place, "Oh! That would be wonderful! I would love to show off something like that to our patrons. It would look amazing as a center piece in our inn." Giving a happy smile she said, "If you're able to get me one of those I will be certain to let everyone know who brought such a gift to me. Of course, that means that I would need to know exactly who you are as well."

Holding out a hand to the handsome blond boy and said, "My name is Eira." She had to admit it would be best if the two of them made their introductions, especially if they were wanting to make friends.

Giving a smile Eira said, "It's very nice to meet you Carminer." The boy was the sort that she defintely enjoyed being around. Cute and flirty, but not the sort that tried to over steps his bounds like some might. It made it so that they could flirt and chat in a manner that was both entertaining and without threat. It was when those that couldn't be trusted appeared that Gyuri tended to step in so that he could pick them up by the scruffs and toss them out the front door... which was always a nice thing to see. It was also usually followed by a cheer from the other patrons.

As Carminer withdrew his hand from hers so that he could get himself another drink she said, "I have a merchant that I work with out of Dernd that delivers most of what I need. A few things are deligated to specialists of course, but he tends to do a lot of the work." Without him and all of his hard work Eira really had no idea what she might do. Well... no, that was probably a lie. If that man were to so foolishly disapear others would clamour to take over his spot, so she couldn't say that she was all too worried.

"I can give you his name if you want to seek him out in Dernd." She offered, wondering idly if Carminer was interested in doing business with him as well or if he just wanted more bottles of wine of his own. Either way it would mean more business for her merchant friend, which she was sure he'd appreciate.

Giving a bright smile Eira said, "If you're certain." She saw no reason why they shouldn't share such information since they really wanted to make sure that things ran smoothly. If it helped the merchant, put him in a good mood that would help Eira, then she'd only be too happy to send more business his way.

Leaning a hip against the bar, giving him a curious look, she asked, "Your own brew, hm? I must say that I am a bit curious about that. Is this a new venture? Do you know much about brewing? Do you have in mind what sorts of brews you might want to make?" She found herself wondering about what he might be up to, if what he planned to make would be any good, and if it might make the inn that much more popular. If it meant making her inn that much better, that much more popular, then she instantly took interested in it.

Eira crossed her arms under her ample chest, a thoughtful look on her face as she debated over what it was that he was saying. He was explaining about drink, both how wrong the current method was and how he meant to go about it himself. She gave another nod after a moment and said, "It sounds interesting enough. I can only imagine how things might go if those who visit end up with even stronger drinks... but I bet they would be even more likely to tip well."

She knew that drunks were far more likely to give out big tips, something that Eira was only too happy to accept. Giving a smile she said, "If you figure out this receipe of yours I think you should consider bringing some by."

"Ah! I see, doesn't that sound like quite a quest." They had a receipe somewhere but he needed to find and learn it anew after the family lost the information somehow. Giving a thoughtful sound she found herself wondering how one could lose a receipe in that manner? Giving a smile she said, "Once you are able to bring it back into being I bet it will be a great story to tell while pouring such a brew." To be able to share with people a brew that they thought was once lost, it sounded quite amazing, didn't it? She felt that it would definitely make it sell better, stories always helped to get people excited about things after all.

"Well, your group is welcome to come and rent rooms here any time that your group passes through on your journey." She offered, then smiled. She hoped that it went well because she wanted very much wanted a chance at that brew.

At the mention of her having the 'most refined palette in Sauti' she couldn't help but to laugh, "Well, aren't you sweet. Thank you, cutie, I hope that I can use my use my refined palette to enjoy your brew one day soon."
