Ferrin

3rd of winter, 515AV

The winter season is already baleful to the human body. With all the cold and rainy weather making things ever more so difficult then it is. Ferrin awoke within his new rented apartment room. His waking schedule is usually early in the mornings and he felt like he needs to go out and hunt. Well at least go out and hunt to find something. It seems that his committed occupation is the path of being a hunter. For now until he finishes training with Joanna. Ferrin groggily got up and out of bed. He gathered all of his hunting materials and got dressed. Maybe Ferrin should purchase some clothes for the winter? The Elegant Weave is a good place to go. On fact isn't the only place? Ferrin has all of his basic essentials to start out for the long day of hunting. But one thing has been forgot. Breakfast. How can one not simply start a day without breakfast? Swiftly, he hurried out of his apartment and locked the door behind him. He carefully took his pace while decending the staircase. Walking now, he waved goodbye to Matilda with a smile of course and stepped out of the Traveler's Row. And onto the cobblestoned streets of Syliras.

What he found waiting for him was a river of people flowing through opposite directions trying to get themselves to where they needed to go. Ferrin joined the river as if he was one with it. Strolling along the street trying to reach a certain tavern. "Ah, The Rearing Stallion, now that is a good place to head to." Ferrin thought to himself. He turned off on the streets and pathways where he needed to take. Chimes later, he reached the Rearing Stallion. A sign of a horse raised up ready to charge into battle. He stepped in, and noticed that the tavern was decently filled with a normal amount of people. "Well, it is morning, not a lot of people usually get hungry this early. The bartender waved too Ferrin, and Ferrin only brought enough change for the morning meal and a glass of water. Though water is technically free. Ferrin took a seat on a stool by the countertop. Where the bartender is standing behind it. " What can I get ya?" He asks. Ferrin replies while setting his gear beside him on the floor. He doesn't take off his short broadsword though that is sheathed at his side."Just the morning meal, whatever you have is fine with me." The bartender nodded and answered with a smirk like smile "That will be four Silver Mizas, and I'll get you a glass of water to." He said. Ferrin nodded and smiled back. Taking a look at his surroundings. And what do you know, their sits a young woman, who is currently sitting on a stool by the countertop;/same as Ferrin. She seemed to be eating a basic meal of sausage, eggs, bacon, and the sorts. She stopped eating and looked over.

What revealed was a wonderful extravagant look of beauty as if she puts make up on her hair every morning. But from her looks it seems that she doesn't have any makeup covering her face. As if she already knows that she is beautiful. Her aurburn hair gleams wagainst the dim lighting from the lamps that are occupying each and every table. She smiled and waved Ferrin over as if Ferrin is the alone one. Ferrin grabbed his hunting gear and moved over and took his seat next to the young lady. "So, how long have you been in the Fortress City of Peace?" She asked. Ferrin set down his hunting stuff once again and answered her calmly."About a season and a half so far? How can you tell that I'm not a born Syliran?" the girl smiled and said "I'm pretty observant on my surroundings and the people I see." "The name is Ellwyn, what is yours?" The young lady asked."Nice to meet you, my name is Ferrin. " The two shook hands in greeting and the bartender came out with a hot steamed plate filled with breakfast goodies. Ferrin happily started eating. Ellwyn finished her breakfast and asked Ferrin. "So you hunt to?" Ferrin nodded and wiped his mouth with a napkin that he had grabbed earlier. He spoke a bit tensly "Um, yeah. Been hunting ever since I had been in Syliras. Why you ask?" Ferrin said. The inquiry was a simple one. Ellwyn replied casually "You want to go out and hunt, it will be easier with the two of us? Especially if it is in the winter to." Ferrin pondered at the thought. He basically mowed through his meal and quickly answered."I would love to." "Do you have a favorite place to hunt? I usually hunt out near Pavi Lake, but not to close to it." Ellwyn nodded and gathered up her hunting gear. And so did Ferrin." I don't have a particular spot, but I would love to go hunting with you." She said.

Ferrin smiled warmly and he gestured for the door."Well after you. Ladies first."She chuckled, "You are such a gentleman. Where did you learn your manners?" It felt rhetoric though maybe she was just teasing him. Ferrin figured that they can be good friends. Ferrin opened the door with one hand and Ellwyn stepped out onto the streets with Ferrin walking behind her. Heading towards the woods.

Ferrin

Traveling along the Kabrin Road, one can see wagons being pulled in by horses. Traders usually ride them. And it is less often to find a farmer giving out goods to sell. As Ferrin an Ellwyn passed by the wagon riders. The riders usually turn out to be merchants selling exotic and yet interesting items. Ferrin would have liked to buy something, but sadly he had only brought money for the morning meal. The rest he left in his pack at home, in the Traveler's Row. "So Ferrin where in Syliras are you currently staying?" Ferrin took his gaze off of all the merchants traveling by on wagon or on foot. He then looked calmly at Ellwyn who seemed happy yet, calm and comfortable. All good traits, for people who would like to be around these types. Calm, comfortable around people, social, and especially one that has a garroulous voice. Ellwyn voice is as soothing as a bird tweeting and chirping a lullaby."Well, actually I had just bought a room at the Traveler's Row. I'm probably going to stay there for awhile. Until I am ready to join the Sylrias Knighthood. What about you?" Ellwyn looked around scanning her surroundings before speaking. Perhaps looking for some decent game. "I actually live in a home, I seldom see to it for the reason being I enjoy hunting." She looked around more now, maybe she had a bad experience with home? Ferrin kept on walking, waiting for a particular landmark to catch his eye. All around them were trees planted about transcending from point A to point B. It amazed Ferrin how far these woods have expanded.

"Same goes for me, I usually hunt to avoid the stress that can get to me. To be honest I'm actually glad that I have had ran into you. You seem like a really cool person to hunt and chat with."Ellwyn blushed at the comment. Her cheeks literally turned the color of her auburn hair. "Well that is very kind of you Ferrin. You seem like an interesting person yourself. Where did you grow up from?" Ferrin felt a bit uncomfortable to tell her where he had grown up. Would it matter if I told her? Ferrin thought? Cool winds brushed against Ferrins face as they continued along the Kabrin Road. Off a far distance he spotted a lake. It was the spot where he took his hunts previously. Ellwyn shivered a tad bit as it got cooler. Transitioning from the certain warmth of the city that held thousands of people was hard while entering the woods. Very few people to be around for warmth, if one didn't know how to set a fire and start it. A clearing opened up through the wooden brush of trees. "Well, nothing yet. But I hear some wolves farther out, do you want to find some of those?" Ellwyn asked as she took a look around the clearing. Ferrin took a look as well. Only a dim orange glow shined about the clearing. And revealing emptiness. Of course there aren't any animals here. Perhaps Ferrin had already killed a lot of them? He did hunt a lot in the Fall.

"Um yeah, so where to now? I was really hoping to find some game."

"Well, there are some tracks actually that were left by some animal heading towards to Pavi Lake." Ellwyn pointed out. She pointed in the direction that she was talking about. And certainly, a trail of animal hooves were heading towards the Lake. The Lake is really something. He has been there quite a few times actually. "We should follow them right?" Ferrin asked.
"Yes, we should. But carefully and quietly. We do not want to disturb the creature." Ellwyn said. The two hunters trudged on. Picking there steps carefully as they walked. Avoiding any branches that can cause a big distraction.

It didn't take long to travel out of the thicket of the woods. "There." Ellwyn whispered quietly to Ferrin getting into a crouching position. Her hair flowing in front of her face. Annoying the huntress. She pushed it aside and started to sneak towards a large boulder. "Ferrin followed carefully picking his steps as well. In a crouching position himself. An animal was drinking from the Lake. The low sunlight revealed a deer. And Ferrin was happy that it had chosen to take a water break. "You shoot it." "If you miss, we can always get something else." Ellwyn said warmly, yet quietly."Alright, no pressure."Ferrin replied in a similar tone.

The young hunter knocked in an arrow that he had took from his quiver. He raised his longbow, now standing up behind the boulder. Pulling the longbow, he took a breath. And quietly exhaled. As he had done so, the arrow whistled throughout the stillness of the earthen forest. The deer had had no time to escape the wooden arrow. Its body had fallen lifeless onto the ground. "There you go. Ferrin nice shot. Right in the stomach of the beast." Ferrin smiled. And this time the light on his face revealed two cheeks blushing in a rose color."Thank you. Next time it is your turn. I should get its pelt. And we can split up the money?"
"Oh, that would be great Ferrin." Ellwyn said happily. "Just make sure to get all of the pelt. Maybe we can get a bigger reward? Since you know, it is WInter after all."
"True, maybe we should get the meat too, but we don't have anything that can carry it do we?"Ferrin asked. Ellwyn shook her head 'no' glumly.
"No, sorry."
"It is alright."Ferrin replied. He walked over to the deer and took out his arrow. He wiped the blood off of it with his cloak and placed the arrow back into the quiver. He then began the process of skinning the animal. With Ellwyn turning away. Feeling a bit grossed out; and not wanting to watch the process.
