Antonio was walking around one of the harbors of Xion Dong. He had taken passage on a merchant ship and it had come to Xion Dong. He looked around at the city. How different it looked. He stood out like a soar thumb here. He was tall, had long hair, blue eyes. And he was dressed strangly, compared to all the natives. He started wandering down the streets. He would need a place to stay...

Dusty had woken up late, as usual, and had to drag herself downstairs for breakfast. She was barely dressed in short silk red shorts and a matching brasierre but she didnt mind much, her regular clothes didnt cover her much more than her sleep-clothes did. She looked across the table out into the town and noticed a tall, handsome elf.
Dusty ran back upstairs and threw on an oriental patterned dress and jumped back downstairs and out onto the street.
"Hello" said Dusty with a crooked smile "Im Dusty" |

Antonio fingered the tip of the knife up his sleeve as he looked around. He heard a door open behind him. He turned around, almost letting the knife drop down into his hand. In front of him stood a young girl.
"Hello, I'm Dusty," she said with a crooked smile. Antonio extended his hand. "I am Antonio." He looked at the girl. She looked very enthusiastic. He wondered why.

Dusty shook his hand and looked at Antonio. "You seem like your new around here"
she said "could I perhaps help you? I've lived here for a little while, I'm in charge of the bard's guild."
Dusty wondered how old the elf was, he looked pretty young, and he was
extremely handsome... What am i thinking? he's sooo out of my league! she thought her smile faltering for a moment before it perked back up. Maybe i can help him blend in atleast... |

Antonio nodded the the first statement, looking out over the harbour filled with fishing boats and larger merchant vessels.
"Could I perhaps help you? I've lived here for a little while. I'm in charge of the Bard's Guild."
Antonio looked back at her. The though, In charge of the Bard Guild? Why she's just a girl! flashed through Antonio's mind. He smiled at her. "Thank you for your kindness, Dusty. I'm in search of a place to stay, at the moment."

Dusty's grin widened a bit, this was her chance. "well..." she began, "Theres an inn down the street just a little bit but theres quite a few unoccupied rooms at the Guildhouse. I could let you stay here if you want..."
Dusty twirled her hair around her finger and then put her hands behind her back innocently.

Antonio followed her gaze down the street and looked for the inn. It seemed to stand out from the rest of the houses around it. It was two stories high, and looked very oriental. Antonio then looked back at Dusty and the guildhouse. "I thank you for your kindness, but I think I will first look at the inn," he said bowing slightly. He knew she would be disappointed, but he didn't even know her so he didn't really care. He started walking towards the inn.
Inside, there was a tavern-like main room. The barkeep looked up at him and hissed.
[orange]"Get out."[/orange]
Antonio stood in the doorway. "Pardon?" His finger let the knife in his sleeve drop down an inch.
[orange]"Get out, elf. Strangers won't find beds here."[/orange]
Antonio was about to protest when four thugs got up from a nearby table and started walking towards him. Antonio stepped back towards the door. He could take one - maybe even two, but he couldn't take four with just a knife.
Antonio left the inn before the thugs reached him. He started walking back towards where Dusty was. It looks like he would be accepting her offer after all.

Dusty saw antonio dart from the inn and the voice shortly before and was suprised, nothing like that had ever happent before. She frowned and watched the elf walk back toward her even though inwardly she was smiling.
"That was, er, odd..." she said "Ive never heard of anything like that happening and the man that runs it was always, well, he wasnt nice but he wasnt like that."

Antonio came to a stop in front of her. "I don't think Tan Quan is famous for it's love of outsiders," he replied. "Well..." he started, not really sure how he would put it. "I guess I'll accept your invitation," he stated bluntly. "If the offer's still up," he quickly added.

Dusty grinned "of course it is" she said. glancing down the street and then behind her before leading him inside.
(shall we move this into the guildhouse?)

Antonio politely smiled back, then followed her into the Bard Guildhouse.
*exit*
((Yeah, go ahead and make the thread))
