A girl shyly stepped into tavern, grasping the collar of a large hound at her side. The canine was a mix of breeds, its body lean and white with spots of brown. On his back was a small leather pack, tieds securely together. Currently, the dog was carefully investigating the wood on the floor with its nose, snuffling under its breath as it went. The girl squeezed the collar, quickly leading herself and the dog to the nearest table.
"Steady." She whispered as she fumbled with the straps that held the dog's pack together. Her own knapsack was laid next the other by her feet. With one arm keeping the dog close, the girl finally relaxed in her chair, exhaling in relief.
