Hilda

From the doorway a small whirlwind of energy bustled into the room, deposited a tray of food before the customers and left in a flurry of rosy cheeks and cheery platitudes. Her blue dress was as if the sky had entered the room and her smile made the occupants feel as if the sun had followed it. Pale blue eyes reminded the watchers of a winter's sky and her skin was the winter snow. With kind words of hospitality Hilda moved through the room until, with a calm word to her husband, she leaves. Once more the room becomes a little bit dimmer and smaller. Hilda runs most of the housekeeping side of the business, including importing the honeycombs needed for creating the famed mead sold here. However, don't be fooled by the appearance of a domestic goddess, she is fully aware and participates in Hrothgar's under the counter trades. Indeed, her family connections with Elvenbyen allow for the transport of goods avoiding some of the more normal routes.
