He sniffs loudly, wiping his tears from his face with one hand. "Don't know," he snaps. "Don't know where is here, don't know who are you, don't know nothing!"
He stands up suddenly, growling and stomping on the dying fire, smothering it. "Got abandoned by stupid clan for my morals. Looks like same as you."
A grin rapidly spreads across his face. "No thief, huh? Me neither, not anymore," he thumps his chest. "I don't want to be like others. I am orc with concience, now, and I not willing to steal people for gold anymore."
He doesn't elaborate on that, instead bending down to pick up his large packs.
You feel hungry
"Good choice. Being ont he other side of the law isnt fun." Nicote nodded. "Well, mind if i join you then? Im heading east. Once i hit the forest....well, the elves hate my guts but ill know where i am at the very least, been a while since i spent a good amount of time anywhere else honostly." He ignores the hunger. He'll dela wth that later.
This far north, shops selling winter gear are not hard to find. There are two shops: one with clothing displayed in the window looking suitable for the mountains; the other with tools and equipment for trekking through the treacherous territories.
"There could be a bow in that equipment shop," Crimson suggests.
(Thank you)
Asteria opens the Chillsky present before going to the winter gear shop, "Thank you Crimson but right now we have get winter gear to get Shootingstar home. If it comes down to choosing between the gear and a bow I'll buy the gear."
(Hullo! c: Thank you, nice to be back :P
Okay, time to zip over to this place)
Skywhisper circles around on the outskirts of the sprawling grassland city, eyes sharp as he sizes the place up. "Lots people coming and going," he says. "Just think of how much trade comes through this place every day."
Indeed, the Adventurer's Crossroads is the best place for traders to come to. It's smack in the centre of Anaia and its far-reaching Adventurer's Roads that allow people from all four corners of the land to travel straight to it. There are plenty of favours and gold to be earnt and made in this wealthy city.
(Ack, coulda sworn I replied, sorry ^^")
"Well, we're not traders," I remark thoughtfully, more to myself, "but I figure we could still get some action here, eh?" I squint at the mass of people down below. "You know, I wonder if there's a lot of crime going on here. Seems like the place for it."
The guards don't speak another word as you both leave.
"Honestly. It's not like every single griffin will suddenly be another Serratalon," Brazentalons rolls his eyes. He looks up at you. "Thank you for not leaving me."
There are plenty of bakers' stalls around. The first one you find has a tubby woman with a garish red and green apron selling wholesome loaves and pastries.
Noticing you looking, she shouts out her merchant slogan: "Get your fresh loaves here! Bread for your kitchen, your travels or for ducks! Whatever takes your fancy!"
You are no longer hungry
I go up to her stall and take out my gold pouch. "How much for two loaves of bread?"

(I'm not trying to be annoying with the 'you feel hungry' thing by the way, it just helps me to remember characters' status :) )
The orc huffs, considering the question and your words ponderously. "Don't have other plans," he finally rumbles. "But if it is east we go, I want first to go north. I know one thing: we close to Southern Territories. Not want to be anywhere near there."
He looks down at you with a sharp gaze, examining your reaction.

You open the Chillfest present to reveal a Chillfest Pud (8/8).
(Ehh... sorry, but which shop do you want to go into? The winter clothes or the tools/equipment shop?)

(Don't worry 'bout it)
"Most definitely. This is the centre of Anaia - people from all of the territories meet here, and so does all of their gold. The number of black-markets in dark alleyways and fraudulent traders will be unimaginable," Skywhisper muses. "What is we're planning to do here with regards to that anyway?"

The woman gives you a great big smile. "At this time of year, I'm feeling generous," she exclaims. "I'll give you two of my best, most sought-for loaves for the pitiful sum of 8 gold coins. What do you say to that?"
Brazentalons rolls his eyes, an amused look on his features.

(Thank you. Sorry I should have made that more clear winter clothing shop)

(Thats fine)
Nicote shrugged. "Why not. Im not in much of a rush, long as at some point i end up in the forest or the nain hub of everything im good to go. Pretty sure seeing me twice in one month might not end too well either..." he muttered the last part.
