Wow! That's... anyway, I haven't heard of Aladar, perhaps Morgoth has though.. But I wouldn't reccomend disturbing him, he can be rather.. touchy sometimes.. Wincing, Xavier touched his arm where Morgoth had gotten angry and stabbed him with a Morgul blade... Well, my history isn't quite so exciting, or interesting, really. I'm a former man of Gondor, but just got tired of all that goody-goody stuff and decided I wanted to come here. It seemed luck was either on my side, or against me, I still haven't figured which.. Anyway, I met Morgoth right away, and was enlisted as one of his highest hands, way up on the list, as it were. I've gotten into his favor over the years, and now I've got myself this cushy job, which I quite enjoy. Most stories involving Morgoth or Mordor aren't this happy, but I guess I just made the best of what I could, and everything turned out... Eh, free room, board, and drinks, as well as being able to meet people from everywhere, this is the life! The only catch is that I can't ever leave Morgoth's service, or he'll have me.. for dinner, quite literally... With an awkward laugh, he excused himself and got a hobbit hops, sans the rabbit ears... So, as far as you can remember, are you a minion, or are you just visiting? Xavier rather hoped to hear that the man was a minion, therefore being someone he could relate to, and perhaps see in his current homeland... Waiting for Victor's response, Xavier drank the hops, burping quite loudly when he had drained the glass...

Ara listened to The dark lord speak and said quietly to both him and Lith:excuse me for a second.she went over to the bar and said quietly:may I have a refill for my hops please sir?and she waited for his reply.while she did so she looked around and then swayed on her feet as a wave of tiredness came over her and she grabbed the bar to keep from falling.

Still waiting for the other man's reply, Xavier jumped when he heard a soft voice asking for another drink. He turned around and smiled kindly at Ara, taking her glass and getting a clean one out from under the counter. He placed another chocolate rabbit-ears on the rim and filled the glass with the hops. Here ya go! Looking up, he realized that the woman was swaying like a seedling in a gust of wind. He reached over the counter and caught her arm, trying to keep her from falling to the floor...

Ara felt the man catch her arm and she sank down onto a barstool and said quietly:thank you sir I think I should stay here for a little while to regain my composure.she took a drink of the hops to steady herself then she blushed faintly in embrassment.she was shaking a little bit from being so tired and then she smiled at the man as she looked at him in thanks for catching her.

*Victor looks at Xavier and answers* Interesting history Xavier, sounds like you've had a bit of excitement. *downs his drink and answers* yes, I am a minion at this point, and am liking the land very much!

With a concerned smile, Xavier released the woman's arm and patted her on the hand. 'S perfectly alright... Stay here as long as you like, Miss. Do you need anything? You look a bit tired, perhaps a place to catch up on some sleep? Seeing that the woman was situated safely on a chair, he turned to Victor. Well, not always the positive type of excitement either... But I'm here now, and I suppose that's what really matters, me being alive and all.. Ah, it's great to see another minion! Mosta the time, it's just Morgoth, and he.. well, yeah.. Well, I'm glad to hear you like it! Xavier smiled at Victor and then went over to check on the lady who had almost fallen...

Ara sat back tiredly and said softly:I'm alright now.I should have slept more before I came here.she looked over at the Dark Lord and Lith and noticed they were still talking to each other with no clue of what had happend.she sighed lightly in relief as a thought came to her..if they had caught me falling there's no idea what they would have done...she took a drink of her hops again and put it back on the bartop.Ara watched the bartender speaking to the minion that had come up before she had asked for a refill.it must be a lonely life here. she said quietly:I think I will stay here for a while.it seems so nice here once you get used to everything.

Xavier looked the lady in the face and listened as she said that she felt better now. Hearing her quiet voice ask a question, he leaned closer and then answered, his voice speaking of empathy and kindliness, much more than could be found in most of Mordor... Well, it is when the bar's closed... And I love it here, Mt. Doom, Morgoth and all.. It does take some getting used to.. but it is a nice place after all.. Smiling, leaned against the back counter and watched her, to make sure she didn't try to fall again...

Lith was lost in her thoughts, totally oblivious to the water the kind bartender brought to her, until she heard Ara, mentioning about how she was going to stay here. She turned to her dear friend with a dazed smile, "Hmmm, yes, this is a beautiful place in a dark sort of way. And oh so much warmer as compared to the bitter winters in Greenwood, perhaps I shall stay here too, for the Winter at the very least." That was when she noticed the glass of water placed neatly on top of a coster. She looked up to Xavier, feeling a bit emberrased for being so rude, "I'm sorry my dear sir, I did not mean to ignore you like that. Thank you so much for the water, I'm just not in the mood for a rich, filling drink right now..."She took a long sip from the glass, the water was definitely different from Greenwood's but quenching enough nevertheless. She smiled contently with her drink when she noticed another minion in the bar, she walked up to Viktor, smiling politely, "Good evening sir, what brings you here so late in the day? I am Lady Lithlaewen of Greenwood, and you are?"

Still watching Ara, Xavier leaned his head to look at both the people sitting at the counter. Aye, ti's nothing. I'm used to much worse, so don't worry your pretty little heart... I know the feeling, working at a bar and all... Sometimes you just get tired of the spirits... Xavier smiled at the woman and then trained his eyes back on Ara still concerned about her... Are you sure you wouldn't like to lay down or something? I've got a cot in the back, 's nothing special, but maybe that would make you feel better? He asked, worried that she wouldn't be able to travel anywhere safely without some rest first.

Ara felt another wave of tiredness come over her and she said quietly:I think I had better accept that offer.it seems I'm not nearly as awake as I thought I was.she smiled wanly and then downed the rest of her hops.the next wave of tiredness was not nearly as much fun and she would have fallen if she had not taken hold of the bar again...

Xavier scurried out from behind the bar, taking the maiden's hand and escorted her to the cot in the back room. Smiling at her, he got a glass of water and sat it on a table near the bed in case she got thirsty. Well, here it is, if you need anything, i'm not too far away, so just holler.. He waited to see that everything was alright with her before heading back to man the counter....

Nisira comes in, being as new as she is, she walks straight over to the bar and orders a Minion Melt with vodka and finds a silver stone shaped like a leaf out of her pocket and gives it to the bartender as the gift to Iluvatar.She looks at the Bartender and says: I hold the stone very dear to me, i found it while i was lost and i treasure it highly. i hope it is a good gift to Iluvatar.

Xavier smiled as he watched the elf-maiden fall asleep on the cot, and then walked back to the bar. Just in time to receive the order of Nisira, someone that he had not met until now. Hello there, nice to meet you! Not often that we see new faces! I'm Xavier, by the way, the bartender here. Anyway, I'll have your minion melt out right away... He got out a glass and filled it with vodka (as well as the "surprise ice cubes", then gave it to Nisira. Oh, 'tis a very pretty little trinket too! I'm sure Illuvatar will find it as a wonderful gift, knowing how much it meant to you. Smiling, Xavier placed the stone into the box along with the small assortment of other presents that had been placed inside it...
