Lucas raised his brow. “Well, I know a Samual but not a Domi…anyways, here” he handed some gold and silver coins to the barkeep. “I’ll come back here once in a while, thanks for the hospitality you deliver” he walked towards the door.
“Of course. Good luck with your ‘break’.” She said as she tucked the coins into her pocket.
Lucas smiled behind his mask. He moved the mask so that it covers his whole face. He walked out the door, making sure that he closed it on the way. He saw Tolkalee outside. “You going home already…?” He asked, walking up to him.
Calix sighed, "What time would you say it is?" He asked anyone who could answer.
“Depends what time system you’re going by.” She checked her many watches and showed them to him. “Human, Fredian, Silvrixian, Diatol, Damnien, etc.”
Tolkalee glanced at Lucas, then turned away. "Yeah, I have a ways to go, and a war to fight when I get there," he replied. Then he went quiet again.
Lucas knew that Tolkalee might not want to talk about it. He turned away and walked slightly further away from him. He raised his hand up to which a golden and navy blue dual swords symbol on his hand flashed as a portal opened. “Well, nice knowing you a little” he walked through the portal and it closed almost immediately.
"Just tell me if it is late early or in-between. I don't often use many time types. But I have to meet someone and they gave me a time."
“Probably late according to most time types. It’s not like there’s day or night here.”
S.K shook their head, they were the last of their species, having been stuck in a story only to return to their home and entire world being destroyed. "It's around six PM according to earth time."
"Alright. Well I'll be back. I have to go somewhere. It's apart of Earth." He got up and fixed his cloak. Then walked out of the place and disappeared.
“Goodbye to you too,” The barkeeper huffed.
"Everyone's leaving." Mre muttered, fingers tapping. "Usually, people at bars stay for at least an hour."
(does time here work differently than earth?)

This tavern is kinda a little island reality in the middle of all of the story worlds around it. There isn’t really any time passing technically. It’s always night here.
Adri glanced over to the door, shivering at the night air. "Do you get a lot of travelers around these parts?"
Calix came back in what felt was like a few minutes. He was followed by another guy as they emerged from a portal and walked into the tavern.
"I get quite a few people. Along with being a resting place, it's also kind of a focal point so if you're going from one place to another you go through here by default."
"Hey Calix, nice to see you back. Want a drink?" The barkeeper asked. "You too new guy. Name, drink, and story please."
"Yeah I'll have another Vodka." Calix said and pulled the other guy with him to sit at the counter.
"I'm Vasilios. I'll have water. And um I became a demon by selling my soul to cure my cats illness and to get her to live longer." The other guy whose name was Vasilios said.
The barkeeper poured out two drinks and handed them to the guys. "Wow, I've heard some weird demon deals but that's probably in the top ten. Nice to meet you Vasilios."
"Nice to meet you too. What is your name may I ask?" Vasilios asked.
"She's the barkeep." Both Mre and S.K answered in unison, Mre giggling a bit afterward. "I'm S.K." S.K said.
“Yes, and unless you are told otherwise, you will address me as barkeep.”
Vasilios nodded and drank his water.
Calix just stayed quiet then adjusted his cloak.
