Eri thought for a bit before answering "They didn't look strong at all, so i'd say it would be easy to defeat them.", She says this harsh words in her usual monotone. "I think im an ok fighter. As for being stronger than him...", she looks Allec, who seems to be approaching them, "Maybe I am, can't say for sure since the opponents were so weak.", she finishes. If the thugs heard her they would probably go into a depression.

She notices Allec has reached them and is talking with Swirly, but decides to say nothing, as there were no words directed at her. She drinks some more water and stares at the ceiling apparently immersed in her thoughts.

"You were thug but now your not?" she says gasping. "Did you find out about the power friendship?" Swirly asks speaking quickly. In Swirly's opinion one does not start out a thug and just stop for no reason. She thinks someone must have found him and befriended him causing him to switch sides, she does know what a paladin is so the word does not mean much to her. After Allec finshed his drink and stated his name Swirly stuck her hand out in an effort to shake his hand and says, "Swirly Carnation! Nice to meet you." then she points at Eri Moonspell, "This is Eri. She is my new friend."

Well pleasure to meet you Swirly and you too Eri. After the handshake, Allec look at Eri. I believe your a type of a woman who is dependent that your parent raised you good and right. He drink the light beer. Considered that is the blessing from heaven above and also the prayer of your parents.

A large Troll walks through the Tavern's doors, having trouble to lumber down to fit inside. He looks around at the crowd inside, sniffing the air and checking out each guest thoroughly. He snarls, and proceeds to the bar's counter to order himself something to drink.

With a low and sharp tone, he speaks, "An ale. In the biggest of mugs ya've got. An' make it quick, would ya? I'm parched, and I don't want to spend too much time in this slum-house."

After receiving his drink in a rather small cup, which only made him angry, he takes a massive drink and continues to look around.

Repede let off a small growl towards Allac, maybe he didn't like him? Or trust him. Who knew. Repede was rather choosy on where and who he felt comfortable around. Giving a large yawn,he placed his head on Swirly's leg, felling tired.Maybe he wanted something.

He closes the book in frustration. Accidentally teleporting himself to a random place and not being able to find where that place is, is exceptionally worrying. Atleast for him it is. Maybe, just maybe, he has a spell scroll which can pinpoint his location? He takes out the bag again, sifting through it, taking out a few scrolls, and reading them in his head, and putting them back in, until he finds one of interest. "Star Compass" is it's name. Suggesting that it has something to do with the stars in the sky, he goes outside into the cold, it being night time and snowing, but surely this will work anyways right?

So tell me whats makes this tavern popular? He was curious about it because many other types of races visit here much.

Eri was a bit confused at Allec's words, though she didn't show it. "...Thank you?", she said, a bit unsure of what to say. She guessed she was being complimented. "Oi, you", said someone behind her. She decided to ignore it sinceit was probably not for her anyway. "Hey, im talking to you!", the same voice said, and this time she turned around and saw a cloaked man looking at her. "I heard what you said about that bunch over there", he points at the thugs on the floor, "Care to show me your skil?" he says with a cocky tone.
"No.", she immediatly replies.
"C'mon, dont be like that.", he says in a mocking tone, "Tell you what, if you win, i'll pay you a drink."
Eri thought about it for a bit before saying "...ok". She would be getting something for free afterall, so it was probably worth.

"Excuse me.", she says as she gets out of her seat. "When do we start?", she asked in her usual tone.
"How about...now!", he says as he immediatly draws a knife and attempts to stab her. She quickly draws one of her daggers and blocks the hit. "Not bad!", he says with a laugh, "How about this!", he starts doing fast attacks with his knife, but Eri manages to block and dodge all attacks, and counters with a kick on his stomach, making him go a few steps back. Before he recovers, however, Eri was already in range and hit him with a high kick to the chin, followed by another powerfull kick on the stomach that knocked him on the floor, short on breath.
"Did I own?", she asked in her usual monotone.
"ugh...you win...", the cloaked man said, still trying to catch his breath.
"I want something sweet.", she says as she goes back to her seat like it was none of her business.

(ooc: sorry for the long post)

Little surprise on what Eri just did that put his mug gently down. Your one strong woman and that is why thugs are scared of you. He laugh gently. I might interested if you tell me about yourself and I will tell you mine, if you only want to. After he finish his drink, he ordered a water.

Rumors still continue speaking about Allec and he keep on not listening to it.

Em watched the sparring match with interest, while sipping her wine, noting several mistakes that would have been fatal in a real fight.

Swirly Carnation watched in awe as Eri beat somebody in a battle and is unable to see any mistakes since she is not skilled at fighting, makes one wonder how she was brave enough or stupid enough to enter a tavern like this. When Repede put his head near her she looks down and smiles, "Hiya doggie! Whatcha want?" she asks. She then looks at her drink that she had just gotten, "Ya want some apple cider?" Swirly usually assumed most animals act in this manner when they want something one has which is normally food of some sort.

Repede gave a nod. Human food wasn't bad for him. Yuri did offer him it, aside from dog food or monsters they have hunted. His tail slowly wagged. It seemed like he was growing fond of Swirly for some reason. Maybe it was her personality?

Once Repede nodded Swirly lowered her cup apple cider so he could drink it, "Have ya ever drunk apple cider before?" she asked Repede. Seeing that Repede was able to enter a tavern without an owner and hang out with humanoids without any problem made it seem like he is one of those animals who lives in sync with humanoid society and is used to their food.
"Do you know how to make apple cider?" she adds pushing it a little far.

Eri considers Allec's offer for a bit before answering, "...Sure, I think I can talk about it, what do you want to know?", she asks with a small smile. She then takes a sip on the drink that was promised to her. "...It's sweet!", she says. Though she looked expressionless, she was delighted with the sweet drink. If there was one thing she loved, it was sweet things.

A few moments later, the ground rumbles briefly, and a explosion can be heard that came from outside. Warper trudged back into the tavern with a burnt up spell scroll in hand, as well as light blue ash and smolders all over his cloak, he goes back to his original seat. Even though you couldn't see his face, one could tell he was a bit miffed. "...shoulda' known better..."

Allec replied with a serious tone "I really want to know that did you ever experience a fight in a real war?"

"A war..." she wasn't sure whether what happened was an actual war, since it was completly one-sided from what she remembered. "I guess you could say so...I haven't really fought though, only knocked some people unconscious as I...escaped...", her expression get slightly saddened. Though she didn't really know much at the time, she still felt a bit bad for leaving all those people behind. "hmm...I guess I haven't actually experienced a fight during war afterall", she says, returning to her usual expressionless face.

I believed you never killed someone during that war. He take sip on his mug and continue one saying. I believe someday...this place will be a war ground that your enemy is not a human...but demons and undeads.

Few crowds are deeply shock and frightened that one guy say, YOUR ARE JUST JOKING RIGHT?! THIS KINGDOM IS HAVEN'T DESTROYED FOR A DECADE EVEN BARBARIANS CANT INVADE THIS LAND. Allec put his mug gently and replied, I am not joking...I feel this might happened anytime or any second. The guy replied angrily " YOUR JUST GONNA SCARE US RIGHT?! OR MAYBE YOUR THE ONE WHO IS AFRAID THAT THE RUMORS WAS RIGHT THAT YOU ARE THE LAST SOLE SURVIVOR OS THE ORDER OF THE NORTH. The continued on with a making fun face" YOU CALLED YOURSELVES PALADINS YOUR ALL NOTHING BUT FAKE AND HYPOCRITES. Allec put his head down and stand up and replied "Believe it or not...it was a prophercy that was warned you 10 years ago by a paladin too...but all of you completely ignored it...because of your selfish way...this is the punishment for your people here in this kingdom...and if you don't want that to happen...I need some help in taking back the order and slayed the evil dread deathknight. The guy replied " THATS YOUR PROBLEM AND DONT INVOLVED THIS KINGDOM YOU FAKE PALADIN". Allec closed his eyes and pay the drinks and leave the tavern peacefully while the people watch him with angry expression.

|I do apologise. Work has been brutal to me at the utmost. Looks like I didn't miss much.|

Repede gave a small nod as his ears perked up. Swirly seemed rather kind to him. He had once tried cider before. Yuri offered it to him on their journeys. Maybe it was due to his former master liked drinks such as sake, cider and other beverages. Giving another yawn, he closed his eyes and made a light huffy bark noise.

As Allec leave the tavern, He continue on his search for people to help him taken back the Order but many people refuse and an 3 hours pass that he sat on the bench looking on the ground with a hopeless feeling.
