The voting chaos was getting on her nerves. She couldn't even bring herself to vote yet. It seeme so trivial and mundane. Lyndra needed a change of scenery. She stepped through the jumpgate to Exodii City. The weather was extremely cold this time of year so she was bundled up warmly. She wasn't going far anyway, just to the nearby Inn a half a block away. That was long enough.
It's no wonder everything came to a standstill on Exodii during this time; fiftybelow zero with windchill of negative 75 could have a person lose their fingers in mere minutes if not properly covered. She'd come prepared.
Even the jumpgate was protected, sittitng inside a large building with the walls in place for the winter. There were heaters set in places and magical thermal controllers in others where the threat of uncontrolled fire existed. The building was like a large barn with a few shops set inside it. Outside were other shops, but one had to brave the cold first.
"I hear they're working on underground tunnels just to use in winter." she over heard one of the guards remark.
"Oh yeah?" a mercenary type replied. "that'll come in handy..er.. I mean that should be interesting."
Lyndra's gaze narrowed momentarily before she turned away. It was a very quick dash to the Inn. She was shivering by the time she got inside.
An ederly elven woman was behind the desk.
"Oh Lass... come in out of that cold! Quickly! Shut the door hun... now, what can I do for you?"
Lyndra smiled, "A room, please. And a hot bath. Dinner, too if it's not too late."
The elf nodded with a smile. "Surely we can accomodate. Right this way then.." The woman took a key down from the row of keys and walked slowly to room number three. Lyndra tipped the woman, including the pay for the room, and stepped inside.....
