Thread: Me and Deep - In war an enemy can be an ally

Dont remind me Jaden grimaced, a touched relieved that there was at least one another amongst the ranks that wasnt utterly insane. It was only a small solace however as he realized the man probably wouldnt last long in the field, to be so brutally attacked and still not be able to classify the attacker was the sign of a novice. It wasnt of much surprise however, the Northlands Hunters guild accepted anyone and everyone who was interested. This he knew firsthand, the group accepted himself without batting an eyelash even though he had been a recent immigrant to the country at the time. Word of warning though, best keep your opinions to yourself. Negative sentiment of the guild these days is enough to have a blade be put to your throat Jaden remained silent as he readjusted his balance to support the injured mans weight, and continued down along the trail. They moved far slower than he wouldnt liked, but at the very least the town wasnt that much further up ahead. Was planning to rent a room at a tavern at the inn up ahead, youre free to stay. There arent any healers there that I know of, but the local apothecary should have an herb or two to clean you up so youre in luck. God knows what might be in your system now after those wounds of yours. Depending on the severity youll either be good by morning or bedridden a couple of decades He chuckled. Guess well be seeing just how long this luck of yours is gonna last ---- As expected, the town wasnt too far ahead though the trek took a notable amount of time due to him having to support an injured man. Despite the late hour the village was lively, townspeople coming and going as they checked the wares of the various vendors on the side of the road and merry groups of drunken men and women sung off-key bards-tales and filled the town with laughter. The sight immediate caused Jadens heart to break in two as hed fully intended to be a part of those groups and embracing the merriment. Instead he turned into a far quieter side-street into what looked like a sleepy residential district and then into a dimly lit cottage that was far away from the hustle and bustle of the main square. Got an extra room, Beatrice? The man called out before checking to see if anyone was home. He knew the owner well enough that he could barge in uninvited and hed like to think that she was familiar with his voice by now. Aint this a bit early for ya lad? Off to the side of the small inn, was an equally small bar being tended to by homely looking redhead, curly locks falling at either side of her soft features at she glance over at her newcomers curiously. Ya stumble in typically at daybreak- after the town has had its fill of your coinpurse, acourse. Decidin to turn the leaf finally? Jaden chuckled under his breath sarcastically. You embarrass me in front of my guest Beatrice glanced from Jaden to Damien, noting the injuries than nodded toward the door across from the main entrance. Ya being helped by a fool ofa man, ya are Turning back to the mug she was shining she treated the two to an audible tsk, tsk, tsk. Ill check the stocks fora poltice o two, ya just hang tight there. Keepur eye on that one though, spends gold like it leaks froma whores teet Her eyes fell back on Jaden as she frowned deeply, the hunter returned the gesture with a bright smile as he made the way into the room. As much as the woman sassed him she never asked questions, and was why she kept his business.
