Closed New in town

[Gabriel Velox Furox Mors]

1st of Winter 512AV

After having traveled for weeks, Gabriel catches a glimpse of the walls of Sunberth in midday. In animal form with his bag over on his back hooked around his neck with rope to keep it still. Sighs in relief hoping he can start a new life of traveling and making a name for himself as a bounty hunter or freelance for hire. His fur dirty from the traveling his paws tired he leans forward and lets the bag slide off, as it hits the ground making a smoke cloud he grabs it and finds a hidden spot within the and sets down the bag he searching around for a few more moments before returning. The sun high and the weather fair, he takes a deep breath as he body begins to shift. His body growing smaller and leaner his features slowly becoming more human he keeps his ears open for passers by. As soon as his form is fully human he checks himself over to make sure nothing is out of place. Grabs the bag and pulls out his pants and one leg at a time he puts them on, next pulling out boots and a shirt slipping them on at the same time. bending over he tightens the straps on his boots pulling out his kukri he sheaths them behind his back in an x. pulling out his cloak he dons it in the hot weather. Clasping the cloak shut he grabs his bag and throws it over his back. He starts on the path to the gate of the city.

Arriving at the gate hes not sure what to expect....

[William Harlan]

Fresh meat.

William rubs his hands together in anticipation. He petchin' loves fresh meat. The city's in a constant state of influx. People come and they go, popping up one day and disappearing the next. He loiters at the edge of the city watching it happen, practically counting the coins that'll be lost. Poor petchers, come to Sunberth to lose everything.

He pushes himself off of the wall he's been leaning on, and makes his way into the crowd. Someone's peaked his interest. Big petcher, maybe an inch or so taller than William himself. He makes his way through the crowd, and falls in step with the man.

"Big bastard aren't you?" He says, smiling darkly. The points of his teeth dig into his lower lip. "New to Sunberth though. Smell green lad. Heavy cloak, petchin' suspicious if you ask me. Come to a good place if you're lookin' to hide your face," William says it all quick, trying to make the man's head spin. Get him nice and confused. It's the oldest trick in the book.

"William Harlan. Let's walk together," he says, holding out his hand to shake. What his other hand's doing? Well, that's always a mystery.

[Gabriel Velox Furox Mors]

Reaching the gates smiled lightly at all of the activity, thinking how not boring this would be. his keen eyes seeing all the story's of the city utterly true. Walking through the gates he puts one hand on his kukri and the other swaying as he walks always untrusting of everyone around him.

Notices a man appear from the depths of the crowds starts walking in step with him. Eying him suspiciously as he speaks, Gabriel grips his kurki lightly. Suspicious as always he keeps his eye on the man noticing hes close in height but the mans face with eye that look like that of an honest liar. Then again who knows, extending the proper hand and firmly shakes the mans hand, with the other hand still on his weapon "I am Gabriel, pleasure to meet you." his voice rich and deep. Gabriels stomach growled avoiding all the other comments and questions and asks "Where can i get some good grub?".

[William Harlan]

"Better keep your hand away from that blade friend. Hate to petchin' stick you," William says, cocking his head slightly. He presses his heel down and the hidden blade in his boot springs forward. "Make a move and I'll have to," he says, tapping the front of his boot on the ground and sliding the blade back into its compartment.

"Good food? Gods but you are green. There is no 'good' food in Sunberth. This place is a shyke hole. Coupla taverns around the way, market may have somethin' of interest. You want a guide it'll cost you. You don't take a guide and it may cost you more." William's smile widens more. "Better make up your mind lad. Time's money and all that."

[Gabriel Velox Furox Mors]

Thinking to himself it would be a bad start in a new place to get a reputation, then again a place like this well, smiles. Deciding against it, "Its not that im gonna make a move, just being cautious with this cities reputation. Though i do enjoy a good fight...." looking arround seeing lots of potential."How much will it cost?" not that hed wanted to give up the gold he still knew nothing about the area and the faster he know they area the quicker it would be to find work. Stops in a decent clear spot he releases his weapon and flips his bag down and reaches in it grabbing out a stale piece of bread. Putting the bag back, he pulls his hood back revealing his flawless face smiling as he bites into the bread.

Gabriel flashed back to a training session with the captain of the guard from his home. Training with the head of the guard and other guards, the exercise was to be able to take on 4 of the guards simultaneously. Though out of breath and exhausted beaten and losing he never gave up and as he trained he learned quickly. It had only been his second day after they guards agreed to train him but these guards unlike the first few he has spared with were clearly more experienced. Seeming unphased as he snapped out of the flashback except maybe one slight giveaway.

"Be more cautious about bein' cautious. If you want to wake up in the morning that is. Folks around here are quick to pull steel. Lucky you ran into me," William says, chuckling to himself. "A couple gold pieces'll do the trick." William waits for the man to respond, but he seems to be in another world. He snaps his fingers in the man's face, sighing. The petch does he always end up with the weird ones.

"Good. Thought you'd petchin' blanked out on me. What's your name lad? Or whatever it is you want to be called. Sunberth's a good place to become someone else," William says as the pair continues to walk down the street. He's leading the man to the Sunset Quarter. That way he'll find a...decent meal and a place to stay.

[Gabriel Velox Furox Mors]

"The names Gabriel." Reaches in the sack for a few seconds while he talks and nods as he pulls out 10 gold pieces and hands it to the man. "Here ya go, so where are we now and what can i find here?" looks around seeing some people eying them and moving closer. Pointing to the crowd closing in. "Friends of yours?" unclasps the cloak quietly hands hidden, weapons concealed Gabriel reaches behind himself and grips both kukri without every having seemed to move....
