Chapter 201: She Of Many Skills
A week after his unfortunate encounter at the docks, Kir was pretty sure he was in the clear.
He’d checked in on Enumasam about the enchanter, and so today was the day set to meet with her. According to Enumasam, she was something of a recluse who never left her home except at night.
Kir had to ask Kordia for a few silvers, because Enumasam had arranged their meeting at the woman’s favorite restaurant, The Mouse’s Portion, which was a little hole in the wall run by a pair of mousekin who specialized in tiny versions of food, even for their diminutive stature.
There were tiny pies and tiny sandwiches and tiny cakes. All the drinks were served in cups the size of shot glasses, and Kir could barely hold the cup of water he’d been given, using his thumb and foreclaws.
The mouse beastkin serving him barely came up to his shin, but at least there were normal-sized tables outside, and it was at one of these that Kir waited, the only ’large’ customer, while the waitress chatted him up from the top of a stepstool.
He was beginning to think the enchanter wouldn’t show when a familiar, nasally voice sounded from behind him.
"Sorry, I’m late! I got held up by an elf who wanted a tattoo but couldn’t stand needles," Moshui took the seat across from Kir.
"Moshi!" the mousekin waitress said excitedly.
"Hi, Tene!" Moshui greeted.
"Everything on the menu tonight?" she asked.
"Yep! He’s paying," she pointed a thumb at Kir. "You’re Mr. Nasalbee, right?"
