Their conversation was derailed by the scent of the kitchen staff setting up the lunch buffet for all their expected guests, and Karl smiled at the three outsiders.
"Perhaps you would like to stay for a proper meal, and not just snacks? There's always enough." He offered.
"Certainly, that would be excellent. However, I should warn you that there is a naked elf in your kitchen." Raj agreed.
"Working or getting food?"
That made the warrior pause. What sort of question was that? Did the Darklight Host often have naked elves? Where could he get nudist Elves? And wasn't it unsafe to cook naked?
"I think she was just getting food, she left through the side door."
Karl nodded. "She's likely on meal duty at the lake. The Elves only get dressed when they've got company, and they tend to forget that the kitchen door is usually open."
Azov patted Raj on the shoulder. "It's a hippie thing. They're all druids and Nature Clerics."
