As Urd listened to Iroh, she set about pouring a jasmine tea into two delicate, polished black cups inlaid with a small golden rune. Rather than sitting on the other side of the counter, she sat on top of it on Iroh's side. "They probably read your posts about your shop on the network," she sighed, handing over a cup. There was none of the usual ritual when Urd prepared the tea, but it was delicious regardless, no doubt a testament to the quality of the tea itself. "This is an incredibly childish maneuver on their part."

She took a slow, appreciative sip, eyes drifting half-way closed. There was a moment of contented silence before she turned to Iroh again, smiling ruefully. "I'll get to the bottom of this, I promise. I just hope in the mean time, your business doesn't end before it begins!"
