It was yet another day in the Green Tavern for Talia. She was spending her pay on drinks for herself. After a few moments of drinking, the Tavern doors opened. A group of hooded men would walk in, each armed to the teeth. Talia looked back and got a bad feeling. She got up and the men stopped, hands on their sword hilts. "Talia Moon?" One of the men said. "Who's askin'?" She stared at them. The men took out their swords. "It's 'er. Get 'er!" They charged at her. Talia, eyes wide, dodged the blades and ran. She made it out of the tavern and halfway down the path when she ran into someone.

Surprised by being bumped into by someone, I fell back into the dirt path, in a complete daze. I got up and looked at her and saw the men after her. I then grabbed her arm, pulled her behind me, sword, already drawn and ready to use. As the men approached I charged towards them, murderous intent on my eyes. I then got one of them in the lungs, but continuing to charge, throwing them off my blade. Stroking the other in their eye, making them drop to their knees with nothing but blood dropping from their head.

Returning to the strange girl, I asked " Are you ok? Did they hurt you at all?"

Talia shook her head. "No. Those guys charged me back at the tavern and gave chase without reason." She went over to one of the bodies and searched it, finding a note. She unfolded it. "There's a bounty on my head?!" She stood up. "100,000 gold coins for whoever brings the head of Talia Moon to The Hunter...The Hunter?" She ripped it up. "That's the man who..." She stood up, growling.

"Wow... One-Hundred thousand...- *looking over at her, I realized it wasn't worth it* -Anyway, we should get you somewhere safe than here." *I got up and took one of their green cloaks off of their bodies and tossed it at her saying* "Wear this, I'll get you to my house then we can figure out if you want to stay... or if you want to go somewhere else. My house isn't far from here. It may smell a bit like smoke but that's not important. But what is important, is that we get you safe."

"Also, did you say sent that bounty? The hunter? If you wanna get closer to him I can get you as close as possible if you want, I had a him put our a bounty for me once I think."

Talia put the cloak on. "I need to get close to him. If you can help me get to him, I will be forever in your debt. The Hunter killed my family and I want to make him pay."

Seeing a bit of murderous intent in her eyes I realized I couldn't turn her down

"Alrighty little miss, I'll get you close to him but ok one condition... you'll have to listen to what I say until you enact vengeance. I hope we have a deal, because I have someone who might be able to help is locate him. So, I'd we have a deal... I'll need you to get a little wet soon" *I held out my hand, waiting for her to shake it."

She shook it. "Deal. If it'll help me avenge my family, then deal." Talia pulled the hood over her head.

Ok then, then, without further delay... Where's the ocean... Y'see... My friend lives near the ocean but I've never really been there. If we can get to them then we should be good to find the hunter.

*I looked away slightly, investing that they didn't live 'near' the water, but in the water as they were a cecalia* so... Where is it?

"Its south of this town. Through Riftly Forest and next to Warnport." Talia started walking.

That seems quite simple... Why couldn't I find that before... *I started to follow her, unsure of the path were supposed to follow* anyway, what's your name? I never really heard it. So if you could possibly tell me what it is that would make this a lot less awkward.

"Talia...Talia Moon." The name would sound familiar. "What is your name?"

Jaabastra D'vouldas, my kind isn't well known and our language is hated to master, but just call me Cassie.

"Cassie it is then. So Cassie...why help me?" Talia looked back. "And which way is your house?"

Y'know, I'm not sure. But I know that one reason of many, is because your kind is discriminated plenty of times for me to start feeling that pain.

"Well I'm glad you are helping."

Well, I'm not used to helping people, but yeah, I'm glad to help to. So me and my friend will do our best to help.

"Thank you." Talia smiled at Cassie. "Now, which way to your home?"

Oh that's right, my house isn't too far, when I see it I'll tell you. *As I continued to walk onwards, now right beside Talia, I finally saw my house, but the same men that chased Talia were surrounding it* well... I found it, but it seems they've got my bounty to... * as I yawned in boredom, remembering the reason they must be there.* Ah... Well then. Our seems that I've got no choice... Huh, y'know *I was walking towards them while speaking* I wanted just a bit more time to myself before I had to... eliminate, this many people again, but it's fine, I'll just have a higher bounty.

*I was still walking before one of the men saw me, or rather, they saw a pale, frail woman with a large bust... when I noticed what they had taken notice I'd, of course I got furious. I drew me blade and charged* you people shouldn't state stare! * the blade went through one man, after the other, I was enjoying this very much, laughing as the blade went through their stomachs*

Talia had walked up with her. The men had noticed her and charged. A blade slid out of Talia's wrist as she pulled out her sword, blocking an attack. She stabbed the man in the throat with the 'hidden blade'. She then ducked under a blade and slashed the man's gut with her sword. She then charged her blade into a man's gut, cutting him in half.

*I laughed as more and more of them fell, as their bodies hit the dirt after getting sliced up by my blade, the feeling made me warm* I never took you for a fighter miss moon! The more your know isn't always better though! Now these men know not to hold back! *As the few remaining men started running off, I finally cut the last one down, though not killing him. When I was sure he was the last one I smiled at him,I noticed the fear, the hatred and the disgust in his eyes.* Now... Tell me who sent you after me, our I'll chop your balls off, and I'll keep it going for hours. * as I said those words a shiver was sent down my spine, I was slightly drooling at the thought*
