The barmaid returns with a plate of brown mess and sets it before you. The slush bubbles and boils, it's obviously a nasty slop. "120 Jaks, kid." She rasps out. If you look about you'll notice several eyes are on you, conversation has slowed.

Three burly men approach you. One sits on either side of you, pressing their oversized muscles against you as if to crush you out of the seat. "You took my seat. Move." The remaining man states, a dumb grin plastered on his face.

The woman flashes you a smile, daintily touching your arm as she leans in. "Hi stranger." A drink is placed before you, the woman slides the payment for it in your stead. "I've never seen you around. What brings you here?"

Aren really was a holy city, this woman was not only a hot babe, she also paid for his drink as well. Stuff like this usually were dreams or in fiction love stories. Kaito leaned back in his hair while returning a smile, while taking a sip of his drink. "Hot damn, I need to visit Aren more often!" Placing his drink back on the bar, he'd reply. "I heard that Aren was a beautiful city. This is my first stop, and so far-" Kaito looked into the girls eyes. "I've saw nothing but beautiful things here." The boy would turn his attention to his drink, taking another drink before turning back to the lady. "So tell me, what's fun and exciting around here?" Kaito would smirk, awaiting her response.

Michio watched as two men sat on either side of him and began invading his personal space. It was clearly some kind of intimidation tactic, and if it weren't for the fact that he was trying to blend in as a non-shinobi, he would've just ignored their attempts. He was, however, about to ask the to scoot over again when a third man towering over him from behind let out an almost incoherent string of words notifying the Ketsueki that he'd taken 'his spot'. Michio turned his head and head and smirked for a moment before rising from the seat. "Is that so? Well, judging from how your glistening, it looks as though you've just spent a hard day's work. I'm sure there are other seats I could take. But if you'll excuse me; you're standing a little too closely for me to get up properly."Michio slipped out of the seating area and slid by the burly man as best he could without flat out bumping into him and then held his hand out as a motion for the man to sit. He then went to sit across the table from the gentlemen. "Where's the waitress? I could use a drink..." he asked aloud, keeping his hat low as he spoke.

Capt Kool-Aid Exit to The Holy City of Aren The woman giggled sweetly at Kaito, "Oh, I can really show you a good time." She mused. Glancing over her shoulder she gave a casual look around the room before leaning in to whisper into Kaito's ear, her lips just barely brushing his skin, "Come with me.." With a wink, she reached over the counter and snatched a bottle of something while the bartender was looking away. Holding a finger to her lips she shushed Kaito before grabbing him by the arm to lead him out of the bar and back into the city. The three men shared a laugh and immediately forgot about the stranger.
A young woman strolled over to the Michio's side, "What can I get ya?" She said slowly as her attention drifted to the door. Right after Kaito and his lady friend had left, another person entered after. Filling the door frame was a bear of a man. Tall enough that the hood that covered his head scratched at the top of the frame and wide enough that he had to turn to enter, he moved with a graceful gait that contradicted his enormous girth. Silently he took a seat across from Michio, letting his back face the wall of the tavern, and tapped the mistress with a gentle touch, "Karashi Ale." The man had a heavy accent, melodic and round. He turned his head to Michio and gave him a nod before shifting to let the top of his hood cover his eyes.

The large man was intriguing to say the least. Michio turned his head to the woman and gave a small nod to the man across from him. "I'll take what he's having. And a large plate of your finest meat." He waited for the woman to quote him a price and paid it, then turned to the man who had sat across from him. Returning the nod, Michio spoke. "How's it going?"

The waitress nodded and made her exit.
The man shifted to let his hood pull back so his hazel eyes could be seen focused on Michio. There was a power that was barely veiled within his eyes, almost as if a sandstorm raged behind them. "Seen better days." He grunted.
The woman returned shortly with two large mugs of a sweet smelling liquor and a large steaming plate. The ale, despite it's smell would be incredibly strong with a powerful kick that could energize a man into feeling he could anything. The plate was laden with a spiced rice, a Tektrees specialty -- the spices were a favorite in the city, it left the body warm and strong but was powerful in flavor and heat.
The man slid payment for the meal before guzzling the ale down in one go and gesturing for the woman to bring two more.

Michio smiled at the man's response and removed his own headgear, showing the short hair, pale skin, and dark green eyes. Behind his eyes, there was a calm, almost like a still pond that was just waiting to be disturbed. "Better days would be good. This traveling is hell and the relics have been sparse."He realized that was an awkward comment and offered his hand. "Shizuru Benjiro, Relic Hunter. I came to this city on the rumor that there was a rather unique urn hidden somewhere in the area. Though the rumor wasn't specific. It could be in the back room of a warehouse or buried deep in the mountain somewhere. Although, after seeing how many guards are around the city, I think seeking it out is a lost cause... at least there's something to refuel me before I decide whether or not to hit the road again."Just then, the woman returned to the table with a platter of odd-looking rice with spices coating nearly every grain. Michio thanked the woman and bowed his head before picking up a utensil and scooping up a bite's worth. He certainly was hungry, so the meal would be devoured in record time, but he couldn't help but yearn for Shisara's cooking.

Shinken saw the slop placed before him and his stomach began to turn. This was certainly not how he wanted to start his trip. To make things worse he had to pay for this horrible meal, which he had no intention of eating. Still he paid the woman who had brought his food out to him, if you could even call it that. He noticed that all eyes were on him and he cursed internally. He went to go take a bite and that's when he heard it. The sound of armored men marching down the streets. It was certainly worth investigating. Shinken got up from his table and went to look outside. When he saw the men marching what looked like prisoners down the road he took an interest immediately. Internally he thanked the gods for this opportunity to dive out on the rancid food he had been served. He dipped out into the street, and followed the soldiers.
Moving to The holy city of Aren.

Moving off to the side of the central area Nisha passed a boy who looked to be her age making his way into the area she was coming from, as she moved onto the inn pushing open the door of the inn that had been recommend to her, Nisha stood at the door for a moment, watching around the rowdy bar like nature of the main room of the inn, watching the room for a while, before noticing a moment when the lady seeming to be the main server was free from dealing with people. "Good evening, who do I talk too about getting a room and how much it will cost to get a meal and the room fee?'. Nisha said with a smile as she looked up at the woman, the lady looked at the girl standing there, and pointed her to a empty chair before moving off to dealing with the room again. While waiting for the lady to return Nisha took her time to look around the room a little more, she noticed the lady take a bunch of drink around the room to the different people of the inn. ssAntonio Play: How much for the evening?

The man regarded 'Benjiro' for a moment before turning his attention else where. When the next round of drinks arrived he would drink from this one much slower, "So tell me... what's so special about this urn? I might know a guy or two who could help you there." [Back in the City - Info for Nisha only] The man that Nisha had been talking to gaped at her when she had asked of Leoman but quickly recovered and jumped at the chance to show off his knowledge. He explained that Leoman of the Flails was once a great warrior of Aren, he had led them through many wars and was once their General Commander and trusted friend and advisor to the Holy Falah'd. However, nine years ago, he betrayed Aren. Compromising several of their food stores before leaving, he marched out of the city with three thousand soldiers and enough supplies to feed an army of five thousand for months. It is said that he joined the ranks of the Whirlwind Rebellion with those soldiers, giving them the knowledge and supplies needed to continue their rebellion. Over night they went from a small group of dissidents to a full blown enemy that has only continued to grow in might. [ Erin's Slice of Aren ] The woman exclaimed happily upon seeing Nisha, pulling her close to her bosoms. "Aren't cha the cutest little thang?" The woman beamed at the girl before gesturing up the stairs that stood on the far side of the room, "There's one room left here and it's actually the best! Since you're so adorable, I'll rent it to you for 100 a night. For 300 meals are inclusive!"

Michio mirrored the man and took a large gulp from his beverage before answering his question, allowing him a small window of time to think. He did his best not to pull a face as he swallowed the bitterness that had invaded his taste buds with a ferocity he'd never experienced before. When he could open his mouth again, he told the man that he didn't know exactly what was so special about the urn. Only that he'd heard it was a holy item from a civilization long past and that a certain collector in the Land of Demons would be highly interested in something like the urn.
"I'd heard there was money to be made, and in my occupation, you gotta jump on opportunities to make money when they arise. So any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. I've got a wife at home with a baby on the way, so I definitely need to bring enough money home to keep them fed."

Nisha was caught off guard by the woman bringing her into a hug pressing Nisha into her bosoms, causing Nisha to blush as she held for a moment longer then normal, once release the woman had a bright smile as she showed Nisha towards the stairs heading up to the rooms, and mentioning that there was a room left and how much it would cost with or without meals, Nisha smiled up at the woman as she began to speak up, still a little thrown off by the hug from before, but hugged the woman again. "Yay thank you, can I get the room with meals for four, no five nights, I may need to rent it for longer, but I will need to work to get more Jakatas in that case". Nisha said as she walked with the lady as they moved to a counter so she could pay for the room. With a free moment available as the meal that had being prepared for Nisha was being served, the woman took the free time to ask what she doing in town, Nisha was sitting at one of the ends of the bar as the two of them spoke. "I am on a pilgrimage mainly, when I was little, I was really sick, and to help me feel better my grandma used to tell me stories about the amazing things in the world, and I always wanted to see them for myself, and one of those was the holy cities, so here I am". Nisha said happily as she took the plate of rice covered in white sauce, taking some time to pry before digging into the food with a happy face as the warmth of the food filled her belly giving her new energy for the rest of the evening. "So while here, I want to see the Holy Citadel and learn about the Seven". ssAntonio -1500 Jakatas for 5 nights in the inn.
