Common metals...well probably not for this barren place but who knew? Point is she had some on her and that was all that mattered. A look in the general direction of his voice. "Noted." Giving him a nod before strolling in, keeping a step or two behind Shyrae...the last thing you wanted to do was fall over a chair you couldn't see. A blink at Shyrae at her annoucement though. "First rule of on the go life. Be thrifty." Thusly staring at the inn keeper a moment, using his eyes to look where she needed before making her way over to a table flawless in her steps and sitting down in a the chair. "Rule two. Food first." Thusly ordering up whatever was being made right now and a some whine as well. A twitch of ears though, looking toward what she assumed was a bar brawl from the blop of motion her eyes were met with.

Well Caden of course lead them to the front desk and while they were getting situated with the rooms and all he talked to a co-owner of the inn about some matters that he needed to find out, they were looking for someone that as been a little bit of a annoyance around the city so they were checking any spots where he might of visited, it was nothing too big to worry about. Though when he was done he realized that the drow was still waiting for him, smiling he walked back to her and grinned a little. "No not really, but if you need someone to show you around and what else just asked for me since my job also list of a bodyguard of sorts, my name is Caden Raynes I'm well known around here. But I was wondering if you may-" Though before he could even ask the drow what was her name a brawl started to break out in the inn. "I'm sorry I gotta take care of this, please enjoy your stay and ask for me if you need any help." So with that done he headed off to the large crowd of massing people and began to pluck off a few of the customers and subduing them with no problem, but it was a big fight so this was going to take some time to settle down, though if he was lucky another guard may come along and help him out.

She chuckled and watched Savvy make her way rather proficiently to the table and then glanced back at Caden. He thought she needed a bodyguard? Wasn't that cute? She supposed that was human thinking though so she merely gave him a smile and nodded. 'I will do that. Thank you Caden Raynes." Ah but duty calls and he had to hustle off. She turned and glanced at the brawl in motion then scoffed and headed over to the table, sitting down across from Savryn. "I suppose I have a lot to learn then. But you'll be nice enough to teach me, yes?" Nodding her head back in the direction where Caden was fighting and frowned, "I think he was trying to ask me something. Do you think I should find out what it was?"

"No worries, it all comes fast...and I suppose I can teach you. Can't have you leeching off of me forever. Gotta stand on your own two feet." Of course Shyrae knew that was the Savryn way for saying 'Sure, you're worth my time'. Even to Shyrae she could be cold..though she wouldn't punch her in the face like she would most others. She was her friend after all...even the big bad necromaner needed friends. Reaching back she gave another pet to Chy who nipped lightly at her fingers. "I'm sure that if it is important he will ask again." Savryn still had her hood drawn, still wearing her robe at the moment...it was probably a funny sight, seeing the two conflicting styled elves at the same table. A nod as food and drinks were brought over. "Wonder why this place is so dead...then again I could probably find that out easily." Dead things talked if you knew how to make them.
Clip clop, clip clop. The sound echoed lightly off the old broken stones. Creaking followed and rustling then more clip clops before they too came to a stop. "It's too hot today..." Sure the sky was gray and gloomy, but that didn't mean a thing...that wasteland of desert and rock was fierce sometimes and made things miserable...especially being in the midst of it.

Well now this fight was just like any other fight in a inn when two men are drunk and they happen to piss each other off, the city frowns on it of course but they expect the dragon and human guards to take quick and precise action against anything like a small bar fight. For Caden it was like normal training, the men he was up against just threw punches and chairs, but also used the occasional bottle or two; as for Raynes he was trained in the sword and martial arts to the full degree so he knew how to defend himself and quickly subdue a drunken opponent, though its not like he has not gotten injured before, example his scar. In some fights a person may get the jump on him but that's what healers and some good first grade medical training are for. So in this fight he wasn't have much of a trouble, ducking when needing too, blocking when he had to and strike with a close fist when he had a good opening. As easy as 1, 2, 3. Though still the fight grew to about fifteen men and by now he had only gotten at least six and was finishing up on his seventh, besides some of these men were built but in no time would he have them down and escorted out of here by some guards in the street.

Shyrae rolled her eyes. "Necromancer jokes...gods help me." A glance around and she gave a smile to the bringer of food before she began to dig in. She chewed thoughtfully as she reconciled all she knew at this moment in time with her present surroundings. "It feels dead here, there's not that usual zing in the air that comes from health and such. I really wasn't kidding when I said that we might be able to help." She reached up and unsnapped the clasp holding her cloak on her shoulders, letting it fall and rest on the back of her chair as she lifted a glass of wine and took a liberal sip. "Are you going to do fun necromantic things to find out or just let them cope for themselves?"
Swoosh. Flap, flap, flap. Swoosh. Flap, flap, flap. Swoooosh. Clitter clatter. Click. Click. Click. "Hot enough to melt horns..." Looking towards the model and pulling out a toy. "Playing makes it all better. Remember what Daddy said?"

Time to make his move. So as nonchalant as possible for a brigand, a couple of glasses of rum were delivered to thier table, compliments of the gentleman who just happened to show up resting his hand on the robed one's chair.
"Two new elves in the city. how quaint and fortunate for us to be graced by your presence. Name's Hunter. most call me Hawk. anything I might be able to get for you fine young ladies?"
Like names? or money? or that bird, or those horses...

"Yes, that's exactly what it feels like. It's like all the main life energy focuses here...and there's sprinkles elsewhere. Would be interesting to know what happened." Shrugging lightly and taking to her food some...you had to be brave to eat what you couldn't see too. "I may poke around a bit...though this idea of helping...I dunno." Tapping her fingers on the table before a she ears twitched at the clink of two new glasses being slapped on the table, and Chylithair gave a screech and hiss at the hand that was placed on the back of her hair, ruffling his feathers up. She tensed on the inside.
"Fortunate? I've noted that we're not the only elves here...they seem quite common and in quite the variety too." Her tone had taken an icy chill to it, one that clearly said I don't know you and you're in my business, and it doesn't please me too much. "Hunter, Hawk...hm." Another pet at Chy idly. "Do you spend all your time trying to chat up young elves in inn's. Or are we just lucky?"
He touched his horns at that comment, a worried look passing his face. "I like my horns." Plopping down. "Hot enough to melt shoes." Touching his little copper shoes. They were getting worn again. Grabbing a bag he pulled it over. "Uh huh. Wind makes it not so hot."

"Only part of my time, and yes, you are lucky that I find you interesting enough to bother with. After all, like you said, there's plenty of you elven types around."
a grin adn pulling up a chair, setting it backward and sitting in it like that, rest his chin on his arms.
"Besides. big desert area, and your wearing robes of all things. and your friend a cloak that obviously isn't made to breath. seems like you might have a little trouble in the deserts with that kind of gear. so, that makes me interested in the ladies that seem to be ready to go one on one with the fates and see how they turn out in the barren wastelands."
though a tap of her hood to get it to fall back some.
"You know, I gave my name, least you can do is give yours."

She glanced at the man who sat down, her gaze moving over him. Human. Oh dear, newcomer and Savvy was being touched. This did not bode well. Not at all. She reached over and slapped his fingers quickly. "Dont' touch what isn't yours to touch." Maybe that would suffice for Savvy and maybe not. Chances were, it wouldn't. "Names are powerful things. You shouldnt' give them out at random when you know not what the reciever can do with it."

It seemed that the fight just got a little more interesting, he had gone through at least almost all the men in the brawl except for two, one held a chair while the other was actually able to pull out his blade. "You guys are just fun in a barrel aren't you?" He asked and that got the chair guy pissed, so Caden was faced with a screaming idiot running at him with a chair. "They never learn..." He muttered and ducked down and did a sweeping move, now that was the major reason he rarely wore armor, though it's not mandatory it did restrict one's movements when one wanted to use thier basic hand to hand skills, he liked what he wore cause he moved easier so all he had to worry was when someone held a weapon. Anyway when Rayens did his sweeper move the scream chair guy just tripped and fell flat on his face, just like that and he was done. Though as he got up Caden drew his blade and held it in both hands. "Come get me." He said with a light grin as he motioned with his left hand. Of course tough guy came charing at him, feet slamming into the boards of the inn with his blade ready to cut Caden off at the stomach. The solider just watched and smiled a little, the man was too drunk to know what he was doing so when the man got close enough to go into his attack Raynes just ducked again and crouched on the floor as the sword went over head, when the coat was clear he launched himself forward and shoved the reverse end of his sword into his gut, knocking him out without any problem. So when the man hit the floor the solider sighed and sheathed his weapon, he glanced over at the elves to see that someone was chatting with them so he paid no mind yet, he had other things to take care of. So off he went into the street, telling two guards he saw outside to gather enough men to take fifteen men to the jail, they needed to get sober before released. As the other guards headed off Caden went back inside with a small smile to check the area, not that many tables were broken but a lot of chairs needed to be replace, so he chatted to the owner of the inn and explained what had happened so he wouldn't get too upset. When he calmed the owner down he looked over at the elves and smiled a little before heading to them, though he paused for a moment since something didnt seem right. "Well the fight didn't last as long as I thought it would but it's done, do you two need me to stick around or anything? If not I'll head off." A look to the other man, the guy just didn't seem right, he better keep his guard up just incase.

"Lucky, or in for trouble." Chy was obviously upset by this guy...and lucky for Hunter that Shyrae had slapped his hand away or he would of taken off those fingers swiftly. Fingers were useful for things. And she had duely reached up and grabbed her hood, keeping it pulled down...yay for deep blue tipped ears keeping it in place. "Maybe we just don't like the sun and wish to keep it off of us. Ever think of that? Sometimes things are simple...and I didn't ask for your name."
Though her attention turned to the human that wandered back over again. What was his name? Eh she didn't catch it. Why was he back over here again? "It was a bar fight...hardly anything to get too worried about. And we're perfectly capable thank you." A look to Hunter. "That goes for you too. If you're looking for damsels in ditress, look elsewhere..."

"distress? please. I don't need anymore of that type. and the sun does more damage with such heavy material than it does without."
before a glance at the other one.
"you know, that can be said for you too. after all, I'm not yours to touch, am I."
a slight grin at the babysitter, and a bit of a wave.
"So, now that you have my name and I don't have yours, perhaps you'd like a bit of amusement. A wager, if you would. either of you play cards? if I win, I get your names. if you win, well...what would the ladies pleasure be?"

Shyrae merely shook her head and leaned back in her chair in surprise. That was surprising to say the least. Generally Savvy took the heads of anyone who dared to touch her in anyway. It didnt matter race, gender, or offense. Especially her hood since she was sensitive to her almost blindness. Glancing at Caden she gave him a smile. "No I think we're prefcetly fine. Thank you anyway." Thus returning to her food and glancing at Hunter for a moment. "You invaded space and that requires a reaction. Thus you received a reaction. If it's not the kind you wanted, you shouldn't touch." Why did he persist on trying to get their names. "I'm not sure I know what you mean..."
"I don't have shoes and wings are no better. We both have horns and I like mine too." She reached over and grabbed onto the bag pulling it back towards her and grabbing a toy out. "Which one makes wind?"

She had her reasons...after all Chy had seen that boat. but for now she was being casual about things. "And how do I know you're a hustler or not. Let's just make things simple for the both of us. Qwyneer is the name. Now care to tell me why we do interest you so? A dark skinned elf and a two toned elf can't possibly be that exciting for you to take interest in. Mayhaps you are looking for something, information or otherwise?"
He dug through the bag, even eventually pulling out a woman's hand fad, made of bright feathers and bamboo. "This makes wind! Make a spot for it." She had the claws after all.
