Wandering the city (Closed)

[Tiza]

Tiza smiled at Tressa some and poked her nose seeming to playfully scold her. She wraped the cloak tighter and sighed a long sigh. Tiza ruffled her hair and walked around seeming to never want to sit still just like a bird. She held out her hand to anyone who wanted to shake it

"Im Tiza..um im from the area but.. I had to get out of the camp my parents and I stayed at.. Long story but I just want to forget that for now!"

Tiza hugged wys and walked into the nearest inn/tavern, it can be assumed that all she owned was what is on her person now. The scar across her face rose some questions to everyone who saw her. What is a young girl doing in this city anyhow without someone to guide her or a chaperone?

[Leon]

Leon turned from Tressa he was beginning to feel like he was bothering her, he was beginning to feel like looking at her in that wierd manner would cause her much confusion and lead to her probably pounding his face in, which was the only response he ever got when he asked females to join him for the night. He never understood what the big deal was. Leon was talking to himself inside his head, lost in the care free moment which was waiting... "Ok then, I will not look at her! I will carry on try not to stair and find something else for my eyes to take notice of. I actually like this girl and I don't want her to be freaked out... just play it cool, and don't be creepy.!" Leon could hear the unsettling tapping of her foot on the cobblestone beneath her feet. She was growing impatient, something he himself was feeling. hunger was setting in even harder. But try as Leon could he could not avoid the feeling of being looked at. It was like eyes burning into him, he wanted nothing more than to turn to meet them, but he couldn't he was to remain strong. "Tap Tap Tap"The noise rang in his head he couldn't help it, his ears were drawn in by curiosity. He knew exactly what was making the sound, but his mind wanted to play games to get him to look. He persuaded himself to the best of his abilities. "I will not look at her!" (Tap) " I will not look.(Tap) Damit! I looked! idiot... idiot!" His eyes followed her foot up to her eyes, admiring every curve, every feature. "Wow" When his eyes met hers he blushed turning away embarrassed yet again. She was to think him a freak for sure, this would be like the fourth time she would have caught him staring. He was sure that she would soon say something, but luckily it did not come at least not from her lips. Though he did expect to hear it, he never thought the other man would so openly say it. Leon hearing him even mention the fact he was staring at her. " It was rude to stair," What kind of BS saying was that. It wasn't... well ok maybe it was a little rude, But damn it it was her fault for being so attractive! What did this dude want him to do stab his eyeballs out! "Self control Leon use your self control." Leon breathed in and turned away from her, just in time to miss the appearance of the new arrivals transformation. in fact it was only brought to his attention when she started to speak. " Oh? a female voice?" Leon was about to turn and look at the source when it hit him. " Wait a minute! this is a trap to make me look at the girl again isn't it!. Damn you accursed head filling me with the fake sounds of another to lure me into looking a fool.!" It wasn't until he heard the sound of the whistle and the unforgettable sound of Tressa's soft voice that he realized something was really going on. So he relinquished his vow not to make notice and turned to the voice he thought he was hearing. Luckily he had the greatest of timing and found himself staring at a cloaked women. Tressa was dishing out some words to her about not forgetting cloths? "Wait?! was she naked? I sooo just missed something." Leon shook the thought off, she didn't look to be that old to begin with, something about that made him feel very unwelcome to the idea, of even seeing her like that. He was kind of glad too, because now he didn't have to further explain himself how had he been caught eyeing the newcomers naked form as well. He was completely lost with her conversation, she started talking about her parents? maybe it was something he had been shutting out, for fear it was his mind luring him too... " DAMIT!" Leon looked around he couldn't believe he had actually yelled it outloud. He turned around and could feel the burn on the back of his head... He turned around once more, facing there strange expressions. " Um can we go eat now please! I'm starving!. " He pointed at the newcomer who was leaving them, she was in a hurry somewhere and it didn't make any sense to him. Maybe she knew where the inn was! " See she's already leaving! Come on I'm going to wither away.!" He was hoping his little change of topic would excuse his outburst. Not staring at her was turning out to be rather difficult!

[Wystern]

The Kelvic left Wys a little stunned of annoyance. He palmed his face as the door swung shut behind her.He tried to recollect what just happened from start to...now. She dropped in (literally), transformed, got scolded by Tressa, the dude behind him has troubles controlling urges; then Kelvic told a rough story of her life Wys didn't particularly care about due to the work day and simple context of the situation and then the guy behind found a way to make himself look like an idiot again. The last person who acted like that was a rapist that Crow nailed...to a door, by a dagger, through the throat. The Knight didn't regret killing people like that.

Still, he noticed a scar across her face. Looks the girl's been fighting or hunting, and failing at that. Or maybe she was hunted. "None of my business," Wys told to himself. At this point in time, he started to like how Tressa was keeping so cool about this. "Courage. I like courage," he murmured. A grin spread across Wystern's face, which he quickly wiped off as he rubbed his eyes. Nothing good would turn out of him acting creepy too. His stomach quietly rumbled, and Wys ignored it again. He should be fine, hunger is only temporary. It's only important so long as he gets something to eat every now and then.

"See she's already leaving! Come on I'm going to wither away!"

Wys almost opened his mouth on that comment. Almost. The man can try to change a subject, but good gods! This is just pitiful. He threw a quick glance at the other man, trying his best to not either burst out laughing, or crying out of pity, or maybe a combination of both. With a short sigh, he opened the door, waiting for Tressa to come in. "After you."

[Tressa]

Tressa smiled at Leon's antics. It was obvious he found her attractive, actually it had began to come more obvious. Her smile turned to soft giggles at his apparent battle with his own eyes. He tried so hard not to stare at her, but yet his eyes seem to draw themselves to her against his will and her impatient manner wasn't helping. Paitence is a virture, screw virtues. It was cute, but she couldn't help but laugh. Her giggles grew only a slight bit louder at his outburst. But managed somehow to silence herself enough to hear his next words. He was hungry, they were all hungry. Wys seemed deterred by Leon's actions, maybe annoyed, and she found his annoyance to be somewhat funny. Giggling again she looked to their newfound addition to the group. Wys hadn't seemed to like her clingyness, but she'd run off ahead. She was obviously young, mannerisms of a child.

Wys moved forward following after the girl and Tressa followed after. "Coming Leon?" She asked as she passed him, glancing back at him for only a moment before moving on. "After you" She heard Wys say and she noticed him holding the door. "Thank you Wys" She said looking up to him as she passed into the tavern. It was brighter inside and her pupils quickly narrowed to welcome the light. The aromas of various things filled the air. Filth, unwashed bodies, food, alcohol, dust, it all met her nose in a mingled scent. "Ugh" She mummbled. It was a sickening smell, the smell of all taverns. She quickly overcame it, blocking it out and seated herself at a table big enough for them all to sit. Glancing around momentarily for the cloaked girl.

[Tiza]

The cloaked girl was sitting at the back table, she held a feather in her hand and seemed to be thinking of what she would do next, With part of the cloak she tried to clean the cut on her face the best she could. Her hands then go to a glass of something to drink and she drank it like she wasnt eaten in days. She looked around and saw Tressa and Wys then smiled at them both. The table she was sitting at had 3 extra chairs, the one she was in was in the corner. She looked so alone but seemed always to be happy. Something about this girl just seemed to draw people close to her, it was like she was seducing people with her innocence and hyperness all the time

Tiza got up and uplled te chairs out for everyone somehow knowing or hoping they would come sit with her. Believe it or not there was already glasses of water sitting on the table. Sort of odd though that she would be so willing to want to make friends with everyone

[Leon]

Leon was getting better at eyeing the ground. The stones made some fair amusement as he began to count them and once again talk to himself. " Well that stone looks all alone, and that one over there is just plain ugly! I wonder what would happen if I.." And within his thoughts an action was born. Leon kicked a small rock watching with great interest as it skipped across the cobble stone. " Oh that was fun! But now what am I going to do. I swear if we don't eat soon I'm going to!" But Leon's thoughts were raided by the softest voice and spoken in the most seductive tone he could ever imagine. Leon's heart skipped at beat when she called his name. First off he was unprepared for it, and second it was her that said it. " Shes doing this on purpose I swear she is.." He mused to himself as he watched her grin and walk by. The knight who he had never really cared to catch his name was holding the door open. He watched he disappear into the inn. Leon was right behind her, giving a nod to the newly acquired door man. Who apparently was useful for something besides blowing a whistle. Upon entering he took notice of the crowd. They smelled bad, looked like garbage, and some were staring at him. But most eyes laid on the girl, which was no surprise. Some made some comments but they were quickly hushed with the entry of the Knight. He added a little note to the back of his head. " That makes two things hes good for, crowd control." The inn was busy with life, he could see ales and food being brought to the tables. Men were gathered around in merriment. All in all it was very humble. But that smell had to grow on him soon, or the food he was preparing to devour would surly not stay down to long. Leon's eyes fixed on the girls position. She had found a table that looked to be empty enough to fill there small crowd. He took a seat to the right of Tressa and began to relax. It was so good to be able to just sit, even if in the company of the unbathed and over spirited (The drunks). Leon waited, he was really only concerned about the food at this moment. Oh and other issues. The beggar still nagged at him. The man still irked him for his foul trick. " I will get you back nameless man... you can bet your lucky stars I will." He spoke quietly to himself. It seemed like the more he waited the less it started to smell. It was starting to grow on him, in a way. Leon looked to the counter maid and let out in a nice loud voice. " How does one get feed around here?! Me and these fine people require some food and?!" he looked around to them hoping they wouldn't mind him ordering at least a round of drinks. " And a round if you please!" Leon smiled and let his carefree side start to show. He was already use to the smell by now and to top it off he was in a good mood! It might have something to do with the expectations of the meal, but what ever it was it put him in the happiest of moments!

[Wystern]

Wys took the one empty seat, on Tressa's left, square in front of the freaky stare-guy. He completely ignored the mood of the tavern going down, not the first time. They are scared for no reason, and ironically disregard the fact that the owner was a part of the Order too, was being the key word. Evidently- the stare-man whose name he didn't really care for, was definitely foreign, probably a first-timer in Syliras; and in fact, it seemed that everyone around him was. He looked at the Kelvic, and her cheery attitude; she seemed a little too happy. When did Wys become such a cynic? Wait, never mind. Tressa still kept her composure, and last, the man was...almost drooling. "I swear, he might be dead by the end of the night," he grumbled to himself in a slightly irritated tone, looking at the fingers he used to whistle with.

The maid came over and tried to talk to the man. Wys shook his head at the mannerism. "Four orders of the usual please," he told the maid, who nodded as she walked off. The Knight indeed was a frequent flyer in this tavern.

"I hope ale is fine. If it's not we can change it to something else," Wys said to the company. Now, for the more interesting topic. "What brings you to ourbeautiful city?"

[Tressa]

The girl had seated herself elswhere and Tressa felt only the slightest pang of guilt for not sitting with her, it hadn't been intentional, she just sat the first place she saw fit, glad to be off her feet. She looked to the girl, she was more than welcome to move to their table, but it was her choice. She was an odd one, or possibly I'm just not used to other people anymore. She thought as she looked on. Realizing she was staring Tressa lowered her eyes to the table, it was marred and scraped from years of mugs and fists abusing it.

Tressa had been looking at the table, but she looked up to Leon as he seated himself to her right. The tavern had become quieter suddenly, the loud discussions, if you could call them that had died to mere whispers. In her head she was sorting through the nights events and evaluating them. It had been caotic to say the least and she hoped the commotion had been spent. Leon seemed impatient, maybe even anxious and it drew her attention to him. Watching him quietly while she listened to his words. The begger? He is long gone by now, maybe beaten, possibly injured, or maybe he escaped them all? She had no hard feelings, grudges were a waste of energy, she had always been one to confront, deal with whatever it erupted into, be it a fight or an argument and then leave it be. She didn't understand humans much, but Leon was definately interesting.Food and ale. She wasn't fond of the latter, but as long as the food was some form of meat it would be fine. She wasn't thirsty anyhow.

The air was already tense. It seemed like even the atmosphere was waiting for something. It wasn't long before Wys too seated himself, to her left across from Leon. The tension in the air only grew. It seemed like these two were getting on each others nerves and she wondered why? Maybe she was missing something. Wys ordered the 'usual' whatever that happened to be after mumbling something in a very irritated way. Tressa found her self looking from Leon to Wys, back and forth, waiting for them to speak or something and then Wys did. Hopefully the mood would lighten again. "What brings you to our beautiful city?" Tressa sat quietly hoping Leon would speak up first, it wasn't a question she cared much to answer, it wasn't a happy thought. But, he didn't and she mustered the integrity to speak.I'm not sure what brought me here actually, other than it was my mother's wish to live here. She left her answer short and sweet, nobody cared to hear drawn on stories of no importance and she wasn't much of a storyteller. It is very pretty here, and a bit over eventful, one will never get bored. She added, growing silent she waited for Leon's answer. Bring one hand up to idly play with the ends of her hair, while she waited for conversation and food.

[Tiza]

The girl smiled and slowly walked over, no sound could be heard from her feet as she walked. She seemed to have a light food and bounce to her step. Once over she stands there looking for an empty seat hopefully closer to Tressa since she was like her. The girl didnt seem to be bothered by the groups choice of seating. She waved at everyone and softly spoke

"Hello! Um i hope you dont mind me being in company with you guys.. "

Tiza listened carefully at the other discussions and what had taken place the night before. When she hears about the beggar her face turns into a sorrowful frown. She sat herself next to Tressa and listened quietly to the other people talking. She pulled a feather from her hair and begin to mess with it.

[Leon]

"Four orders of the usual please." Leon mocked in his head. What was this guys deal. Maybe he was just trying to get on his nerves. He made comments he hated, seemed to look at him like he was the devil. What was making this guy act this way to him. Leon brushed it off he had better things to attend to. He would deal with the usual, what every the hell that was. he was tired, the look on his face showed it. He needed sleep that was something for sure he would be getting from this adventure tonight, a good nights rest. "What brings you out to our beautiful city." Leon let the words settle in his ear for a moment. And then he began picking the statement apart entirely, of course keeping it to himself. " What brings me here? Desperation!. I need gear and this town happens to have some of the stuff I may or may not acquire before I depart this retched place... As for the so called beauty this city has to offer. So far I have not been to impressed. Beggars, filth, and of course the standard run of the mill inn's filled with the folk you never want to bring to a gathering. This was not the best city to go walking around in either!." Leon brought himself to listen to what Tressa was saying. "Tressa...in fact shes the only thing good about this damn place so far."She understood what she was saying. The beauty could be seen, but only if there was no people around, they seemed to making it the mess it was. Leon smiled. Earlier in the day he did find himself wandering about looking at the view. "Damn maybe It is an ok city, just not with all these flaws!" He waited until she had completely finished speaking to make any verbal movement forward. " Well I came to this town for trade." He was even shorter with his words. He didn't have much to look forward to except the trip he would soon be on.
