Is that Rhododendron behind the counter?

Yes, it travels.

For the rest of the journey, Fowl silently scribbled something with a pencil on paper, occasionally comparing it to the surrounding world with his thumb. However, the landscape gradually changed, so perhaps the orc was drawing their companion?
Eventually, the sketch was

finished

"I'll call this sketch – 'optimism'."

— Well, buddy, shall we stop by the tavern? Because it's not yet clear what's here and where.

— A wolf eats – splinters fly. Yes, a tavern is exactly what we need right now.

Having found themselves inside a tavern with a curious name ("Melon"), the duo of orcs takes a seat at one of the tables in the middle of the very noisy hall.

Soon, a waitress approaches them and asks what they would like to order (the menu was on the table).

I'm actually curious about the risks associated with sharing a bed. But if someone decides to leave, don't turn your back on anyone.

This is a common room, not a bunk. A common bunk is a couple of points better. But the main risk is that someone might steal something.

– I’ll have the steak, – Fowl said to the waitress.

— And give me some soup, my dear, and while you're at it, tell us what this city has to offer. — Aha, I understand. — Remembering the order (the orc, apparently, wasn't literate), she nodded affirmatively. — Let one of you order for me, then I'll tell you. Or better yet, both of you at once. I still have to feed my little ones, and I can't manage on one salary. So, what do you say?

-- Those who know how to cook are capable of love... I would have eaten first, but since such a cutie insists on it right away, fine, I'll order.

...
To Fowl’s (questionable) delight, it turned out that this establishment didn’t offer any privacy, and he was able to enjoy his steak while simultaneously sharing ten minutes of affection with his partner in full view of the other patrons. However, given the commonplace nature of this event, few people paid them any attention.
— Well, tell me. — After all the business was concluded, Gromm, who had been silent until then, gave the orcish woman 20 kahos – for food for the children.
— Oh, thank you. I’m sure you don’t want to visit my body?...
— I don’t approve of fornication, and I don’t need anything in return to help the children.

Fowl, who had finally gotten the paper, didn't expect such a sudden and intense request, but he didn't refuse. Once it was done, Black Wolf finally took out the paper and brushes, and while the waitress was talking, he did what he wanted:


-- Here. Does it look like her? Do you like it? -- he asked the woman when she finished telling the story about the city's attractions.

— She's unlike any other... You've really made her beautiful. But I like it. She's lovely. She would drive all the men in the area crazy.

– A wolf shouldn't whine. You're beautiful, healthy, and you don't look like you've been through anything rough, even though I only saw your head. And I'm tired today... Here, I'm giving this to you, – said Fowl, hoping to make her happy.

— Let’s hang it somewhere in the tavern, so the guests can admire it.
