As the bargee draws a tankard of Bor Brew from its keg, you notice that several of the passengers are whispering to each other and casting curious glances in your direction. You catch the words 'madman' and 'fool' in the undertone of mutterings that pass between them. The bargee returns, sets the tankard down on the table before you, and steps back nervously. Silence fills the tap-room as you swallow the thick, creamy ale.
