Erin Solstice
 		Erin stared hard at the golden substance bubbling and turning brown over the fire. It was cheese. Cheese, on top of a tomato sauce spread evenly over a doughy base.
Erin Solstice
 		With pepperoni. It had to be with pepperoni, or else there wouldn’t be any point, would there? Erin was a firm believer in pepperoni; she could take or leave pineapple and she refused to acknowledge anchovies.
Erin Solstice
 		Erin breathed the word, as she sensed the moment was now. She reached forwards and yanked the pizza off the metal rack over the fire, glad that she’d remembered to wear gloves this time.
Erin Solstice
 		Erin slid the pizza onto the counter and grabbed a knife. She didn’t have a pizza roller, but it was easy enough to cut into the traditional eight slices. That too was essential; you couldn’t have unevenly sized slices, or someone might get stabbed.
Erin Solstice
 		It was done. Erin stared at her newest creation and felt her stomach rumble. But no, this wasn’t for her. This was for her customers.
Erin Solstice
 		As Erin swept back into the common room she enjoyed the sound of that word. Customer. She had some! But maybe that wasn’t the word for the people sitting in her inn. Hm. Patron? No, that sounded awful.
Erin Solstice
 		That was a good word. Erin beamed as she sat her pizza down in front of the Drakes who eyed the food suspiciously. She didn’t know them, and that was glorious too!
Erin Solstice
 		She had guests that weren’t friends. It didn’t sound like much, but it was progress! For the last few days, Erin had been getting Gnolls, Drakes, and the odd Human into her inn, and not just her friends and Pisces. She was making money, and with her newest creation she was sure she was going to make even more.
Pisces Jealnet
 		She had guests that weren’t friends. It didn’t sound like much, but it was progress! For the last few days, Erin had been getting Gnolls, Drakes, and the odd Human into her inn, and not just her friends and Pisces. She was making money, and with her newest creation she was sure she was going to make even more.
Erin Solstice
 		One of the Drakes poked at a slice with a claw. Erin nodded proudly.
Erin Solstice
 		His eyes widened, and his tail twitched a bit. Erin watched his face and his tail anxiously. Drakes were like dogs, and Gnolls were even more like Dogs. They could lie pretty well, but their tails always gave them away.
Erin Solstice
 		He bit deeper into the slice as his companions watched expectantly. Erin held her breath. His tail twitched…and then began to wag!
Erin Solstice
 		Just a bit. But when the Drake finished the rest of his slice and reached for another one Erin knew she’d done it again. Or rather, copied it again.
Erin Solstice
 		Erin beamed, and the other Drakes nodded happily in approval. One picked up a slice, but rather than eat it, began to dissect it, examining the parts.
Erin Solstice
 		The third Drake nodded. He wasn’t eating either, which was strange to Erin, but he also inspected the pizza with great interest.
Erin Solstice
 		All three Drakes froze and looked over at Erin. The second one gave her an unconvincing smile.
[Cook]
 		“Oh. Um. Thanks? Are you some kind of [Cooks]?”
Erin Solstice
 		The third Drake nodded. He stood and extended a claw to Erin. She shook it, still not quite sure what was going on.
Terres Hangclaw
 		“Terres Hangclaw, at your service. I’m a [Chef] at the Dancing Drake in Liscor.”
