In the very crowded city of Lomedor Square,a shadow was seen coming nearer and nearer the gates and without a warning,a tall,stranger walked through the gates not stopping to even look back at the people who were gazing at him in awe...at his attire which seem so un-Lomedorish.He was wearing a dark cloak which covered even his face.The stranger continued walking till he reached an inn.The inn-keeper spotting him,gawped at him in puzzlement before letting out his usual greeting,"Ahoy sir..how may I,Barlin serve you.."The stranger gazed into the inn-keeper's eyes..a gaze which stuttled even the poor Barlin and spoke,in his deep voice,"I want a dragon ale..and a place to stay while I remain here..somewhere safe."Barlin bowed and said,"My pleasure...sir..take a seat.."The stranger strided into the inn,not even fazed by the countless stares by the crowd inside and settled down in a dark corner and sat down.As he pulled his cloak away from his face,a his long dark brown hair fell to his face.The others stopped staring when they saw he was human but somewhat different as well..perhaps it was his tired indigo eyes which seemed magical..or his squarish jaw.His face looked somewhat proud but defeated as well.The stranger pulled out a pipe and lit it and smoked from it.

Kistu was doing what she usually did, hanging upsidedown and forcing a window open with her dagger, the trouble was it was a window with a latch on the inside and she was having a lot of trouble coakcing the dagger to go through and open the latch, the blade was thin but it didn't seem thin enough to break through. Eventually she gave up and yanked her dagger out, she dropped down from the roof and landed cat-like upon the ground. She leant against the wall and thought about what to do next, she still had 300 gold from that merchant she'd borrowed from earlier today, so she may as well use it for something.

She got up off the wall and set off across the squar humming merrily to herself, the really funny part about her favourite hobby was that nobody would expect a little girl to be stealing, she allowed herself a small fit of giggles before she recovered. There was an inn nearby so she headed towards it and walked in, it smelled of sweaty men and the smallest hint of alchahol, however she wanadered over to the counter and sat down at it. The barman looked over at her.
"Just a mo'," he said "I'm serving that gentleman over there." He indicated the shadowy figure sitting at a table.
Kistu blinked and looked over at him, he hardly looked like a gentleman by her standards. Looking back she noticed the barman had been counting a small pile of bronze coins, and with his back turned he'd hardly noticed them. Kitsu's nature got the better of her and she slipped one into her pocket and replaced it with a wooden one that looked almost the same colour unless you stared really hard, he order probably only cost one bronze coin anyway so he'd be getting it back soon enough.

Lord Elendor was so busy smoking and lost by his thoughts,it had become so smoky and his vision was very much distorted with both his smoke and the smoke from the others' pipes mingled together,making the flavor in his own pipe diminished.He glanced over at the bar,wondering what the bar man was up to,and if he was going to get his order soon,or demand it in his usual way.He had become so accustomised to his rough manner due to travelling very long and mingling with all sorts of characters.He observed the barman engaged in counting his shillings and his gaze moved to the girl,not too far from him,and couldn't help but smirk noticing her quickly pocketing one of it.He stood up to his full height and walked to the bar and stared at the girl and back to the man and said,his voice booming,"Hey,keep that all away before I might need to take them..and where's my ale?As the man looked at Elendor in a frightened manner and hurried to keep away his coins and disappeared into the cellar,he turned to the girl and said softly,with a small smirk,"I bet you are not here just to grab a drink eh?"

Nesh Psion Spartan was sitting by the bar drinking his elven tea. He was enjoying the music that was played in the bar. It was ancient classical elven music scored by the late musician Hillder. The bar was filled with smoke for the old folks sitting and chatting there were each holding a black stuffed cigar. The aroma created by the smoke was creating some sort of mental delusion, for the cigars were packed with drugs. But the aroma coupled with the mist of the night sky evoked a pleasureable feeling that relaxed the constantly cautious and restless mind of Nesh Psion Spartan. Nesh Psion almost went into a deep hypnotized sleep when a commotion nearby woke him. There he saw a man confronting a lady. Nesh stood up lazily and approached them to see what was going on.

Kitsu had to hold back a very bad fit of giggles when the barman shovelled the coins away, he still hadn't noticed the fake one and had passed it off as the real one currently hiding in Kitsu's pocket. He gave her a funny look at the sight of her trying to stop herself laughing before getting on with what he was doing. Kitsu just wished she could stick around when he realized one of his coins was fake and almost burst out laughing out loud. Eventually she bit down hard on her own toungue and calmed herself down.

She flicked a bit of loose hair out of her eyes and looked up at the stranger that had just spoken to her, she was surprised she'd heard it over her attempts to stop laughing.
"Yeah, you could say that," she said brightly.
She looked back at the barman, or rather the back of his head, just trying to imagine him yelling his head of to try and find out who'd given him a false coin. Kitsu's giggling fit threatened to start again so she quickley stopped. She did however choke on a bit of the smoke wafting around the room and looked up again, noticed another stranger glancing lazily in their direction..

Elendor gazed over at the barman before looking at the girl and smirking he said softly,"I did saw you swapping the coins..but I care not to report.."Elendor then continued,"I am Elendor..would you care joining me for a drink?I might learn a thing or two about this town and that might be quite helpful..only if you don't mind,of course!"His gaze travelled from the girl to another stranger who was heading towards them and he nodded at the man,he seemed somewhat familiar..perhaps he was another stranger just like him."Hello friend.."he greeted the man.

hmm you look like that guy i saw in the port earlier this evening...said Nesh, still eyeing with suspicion.Anyway, I am Nesh Psion Spartan, a warrior psion from the eastern lands... He continued. This lady is your friend, i see, pleasure my friend, perhaps we should have a sit...suggested Nesh.

"You said you saw me at the port?"Elendor quizzed the stranger,wondering how he missed this guy at the port,especially after having to fight so many of the bandits,not many people were left,so it wsn't exactly easy to miss anyone."I must have missed you there..in the midst of all my work.."he said,smirking at the memory of the bloody fight and offered his hand to the man and said,"I am Elendor,a rider from the North."He gazed over to Kit and said,"We just met actually..and I was asking for for a drink..you are very much welcomed to join us.."He eyed a shadowy corner and said,"Perhaps..we shall take a seat there?"

Kitsu finished caughing and looked back up at the stranger, she blushed slightly when he mentioned that he'd noticed her swap the coins around. He was lucky he didn't set her off giggling again. Kitsu bit down on her toungue again and put on a straight face.
"Well, nice to meet you," she said brightly "I'd be glad to, call me Kitsu-Chan."
She blinked and remembered the other stranger, she turned about and noticed him standing right behind her, gazing lazily at her and Elendor.
Wow, I wonder what happened at the port, she thought as soon as the man had finished what he was saying.

To be honest the particular area in which she was sitting was getting a little foggy from all the smoke fumes and she was more than glad to move. She hopped off her seat and curled her tail into a spiral behind her, she clasped both hands behind her back and smiled innocently.
"Fine by me," she said in the same bright tone.

By now, Nesh was swayed away from his sleepy stance. He was pretty much awake and refreshed. He went over to the chairs where kitsu was sitting. And he raised his hands up and snapped his fingers. 3 elven apple juice! he yelled, to which the bartender nodded in acknowledgement. Nesh waited for the other man to take his seat too. And so, people...My name is Nesh Psion Spartan...what about you two? He questioned cooly...

Elendor smiled at Kitsu as she introduced herself and shook her hand in acknowledgement and said,"Nice meeting you as well!"

He joined her and Nesh over to the corner,he earlier indicated and at Nesh's orders he remarked,"You have a fine taste,friend..nothing exactly taste better than Elven apple juice..unless you are talking about the Elven wines..."He chuckled and to re-introduced himself again,as Nesh seemed to have missed his intruduction earlier,"I am Elendor..so what do you guys do in this town?"
