The Yawning Lion Pub
Sveinn was seated in a grubby booth way in the back. The lights back there were dim and flickered every couple seconds in a most annoying way. He clutched a large mug of dark mead tightly as he felt his stomach lurch. He was irritated at the fact that she was making him nervous like this and especially since he didn't even know if she'd show up. After a couple weeks of their last encounter he had left her a note asking that he meet her here at the Yawning Lion Pub. It was a shabby place that had been in Rosewind for ages and attracted a wide variety of customers. He hoped that she would come alone but hadn't thought to say so in the note.

Re: The Yawning Lion Pub
I walked into the pub and got some immediate attention. "Maybe I should have worn something else..." I questioned myself looking down at my black skinny jeans and the crimson croptop. My palms were sweating, I began looking around the pub. "Hey girly why don't you come sit with me?" I heard some sleazy guy say as he put an arm around my waist. "Please get off me.." I said tense

Sveinn heard the whistles and looked up. He was very displeased to see the man touching her. He stood up and quickly made his way over to them. "Hey buddy, if you want your bones to stay unbroken then get lost." He snarled as he yanked Ella away. "I've got business with this woman."

I sighed in relief. "Oh my hero." I laughed quietly. "Where are we sitting?" I smiled up at him.

"You could have taken him. Why didn't you?" He asked with a frown. "That shitface would be easy pickings." Sveinn lead her back to his booth and flopped down in the corner of one of the seats.

"Yes I could have but it would be bad form. I'm a female, if we react the same as a man we get told it wasn't necessary and to learn how to take a compliment. If he had continued to harass me I would've knocked him on his ass." I said sitting across from him. "Now why did you ask me here?"

"Screw good form." He growled with a roll of his eyes. "If an asshole harasses you then put him in his place. That's a bunch of bull."

I nodded. "I also don't want to pay for property damages. Now are you going to tell me why you asked me here or should I just go?"

"Oh, yes, well you see... I've taken on a new 'job' that will bs very physically demanding. Should that result in injury to myself I would like to hire you for your services." He said as he took a full from his mug. "So what do you say girly?"

"I say if I get called girly one more time tonight I'm going to stab someone. But yes I will accompany you. I need to know details ahead of time unlike the last time we went out like that." I said.

"The details are that whenever I show up on your door step, you heal me and I pay. Simple as that." Sveinn said as he finished off his mead. "Nothing more you need to know. You don't be accompanying me on the job. Just that if I get back here and am in need of attention, you'll give me it. I'm willing to pay a good price."

He shrugged and replied, "Two times the normal price for a healer I guess. I've got the money for it." He flagged down the bartender and got himself another drink. "So hurry up and give your answer. I don't have all night. I have plans."

"I don't even know what the normal rate is but yes. I already told you I would still be your healer." I said "Do you mind if I ask what you're other plans are for the night?" I asked

"If you don't know the price then I won't pay a damn thing." He said in amusement. "So you best come up with a price." He cocked a hand over his shoulder to point towards the door. "Night out with the guys. Hit all the usual spots before a bit of sporting."

I smiled. "Sounds fun. Well how about a depending on how much magic I have to use or how badly your damaged, will depend on how much I should be paid. Or maybe an unconventional payment." My eyes lite up with humor.

"Yes, yes, I'll give you the blood of my first born child." He replied as he leaned back in the booth. It was of course a meager joke in an attempt to brush off what she had implied. He felt a slight twinge of nervousness inside and decided that it was about time to leave.

I laughed gleefully. "Your funny Sveinn. Not what I was talking about but either way I'll leave it up to you." I smiled and stood up. I placed a few gold coins on the table. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have some things I need to attend to." I said and walked towards the door.

The slightest hint of a dark blush crept across his face and he lost his grip on the mug. It smashed into the ground and he cursed loudly. With a hasty flick he fixed the mug with magic and paid for his drinks. Sveinn walked out of the pun and headed for the alleyways two blocks down where he knew his group would be.

I heard the crash of glass breaking and laughed. I was chatting with a very eager young lad when it happened. "If you'll excuse me hun, but you're much too young for my taste, and I must br going." I teleported to my dorm as I saw the pub door open.

Re: The Yawning Lion Pub
Sveinn glanced around the room, thankful that the pub had not been filled. His clothes, already dry thanks to the roaring fire, were stained and torn by long travels but still in surprisingly good condition. The psychic would be in town for a few days to visit but at the moment he was enjoying a well deserved rest. It had been a few years since he had left during which he had grown a lot. No longer was he bitter and needlessly violent. Now he was charming but cunning, resulting in him having amassed a small fortune of his own. Sveinn looked towards the door at the sound of it opening and was somehow not too surprised at who he saw walking in.

Re: The Yawning Lion Pub
I had gone to the pub for a drink and to check the job broad. I had forgone what I used to wear, short or tight clothing for something more comfortable. Black slacks that gave me good mobility and a deep purple long sleeved v-neck and a black tail coat with a square neckline. The clothes fit my body nicely but were more modest. My hair had gone from a sunny blonde to nearly white, and with the potions in it, grew in the same colour. I was looking over the job broad when I felt eyes on my back. I tried to ignore it, thinking it was someone who was new or had been away for a while and didn't recognize me. "Gods the jobs are shit right now." I sighed still trying to ignore the eyes on me. I popped the collar on my tail coat and tried to decide on the least boring job.

A man walked into a bar as he looked at Ella and he went to the job list and took a piece of paper off. "Hm...pathetic. Not worth my time." The man said as he was a similar build to someone in stature. He was donning a black jacket with a white undershirt, long black jeans and had red yellowish eyes.

"Hey, Kaze." I said crossing my arms and turning towards him. I opened my mouth to ask him something when a figure by the fire catches my eye. 'Is that...? No it couldn't be.' I thought and look at Kaze again, "How was your last quest?" I asked my voice had changed over the years, a little less shrill and more calm as I fought more and more wars.

Re: The Yawning Lion Pub
The psychic turned back to the fire and pulled out a small black pipe. He leaned back, put his feet up against the hearth and blew put a few smoke rings. It felt odd seeing once familiar faces as strangers now but he didn't want to draw attention to himself if he could help it. Sveinn's once long dark hair was now cut off at his shoulders and starting to grey a bit. He was seemingly taking after his father who had started greying early in life. His skin was slightly darker now from months in the sun and he had amassed even more scars. His once thin body was now well toned and stockier due to heavy travel and use. He was almost unrecognizable from the once elegant prince who used to lurk around the school yard. "Bartended, give me another." He called out and held up his mug.
