In that case, revise:
“Talloak unfortunately lacks any beds for rent, though I’ve known visitors to sleep on the tavern floor, if that is acceptable after your long journey. Granitehill is quite the distance away.”
(will not revise the statement)
Drakor looked unconvinced - who would turn down a free weapon unless they were trying to be polite? - but he decided to let the matter drop. “Very well,” he sighed. “But if you change your mind, just let me know.”

A masked, hooded half-orc (Drakor) looked at Rika.
“How did you know our purpose?” he asked, voice even and steady.

Noticing this, Wanderer walks off toward the tavern to get the sleeping space situation…situated before returning to the group.
(Is Drakor visibly carrying any weapons)
“Well, you’re quite the memorable group, and I took interest in the magistrate’s verdict today. I almost didn’t recognize you with the costume change. Where did you purchase that armor, by the way?”
Paprika seems to be enjoying herself greatly.
