Moelle stretched out his body on the bed and wiggled his fingers popping the kinks in his bones. His ears twitched and tail stiffened then relaxed. He wasn't ready for another day in Epeta, or the inn he was staying at for that matter. He usually stayed in Royshan or Xheqa because he didn't particularly like high elves. They scared him. It wasn't anything about their physical features, no. It was how they held themselves so confidently. It was partially his own fault, it was he who thought this way. The young man frowned, this wasn't a way to start the morning.
He had to get going and sell his merchandise and travel to another region. He had wasted enough time here. Moelle dressed, putting on his tunic, this time a grey and black one, with his light brown poncho over. He slipped on his pants and glanced out the window. It was almost morning. "Eeeh," he slurred randomly, lightly fondled his necklace. "Time to leave." He quickly grabbed his small box and backsack before opening the door and down the walkway and down the stairs.
The Inno approached the front desk and grinned at the owner. She smiled back. "Up early again, huh?" She paused for a millisecond and shoved her palm in front of his face. "Wait-...Are you going hunting?"
A light pink shade brushed Moelle's cheeks and his shoulders hunched. "S-shuktye! I don't always go out and...hunt." He coughed and turned his head away. "A-anyway, I'm going out now. So keep a close watch on my room, uhm, please." He didn't hear a reply and saw that his friend has her arms crossed with a teasing grin on her face. "Okay! Mimi!"
Moelle curled his fingers and screamed angrily. His sister just made him so mad for no reason! Sometimes the sight of her made him go crazy. Mimi knew he was, well, attracted to guys and referred to his searching for a mate 'hunting'. He ran out the door and slammed it behind him. He had to sell his things now.

Ivah stretched his arms above his head with a relieved sigh. He had just reached Epeta and he was excited to check out the merchants. As his arms came down, he adjusted the thick toque on his head and shifted his leather sack onto his other shoulder. His hair was a pale green-blonde color and the sun shone off the exposed length that flowed down his back. His gray eyes shifted from building to building as they came into view.
Vaguely aware of the eyes of the city folk following and assessing him, he adjusted the sleeves on his sweater so they were bunched up around his elbows. He stopped for a minute to push his socks down closer to his boots. It was almost too warm for him with his choice of clothes. Looking down, he pulled a small pouch from his the pocket of his shorts, a thick rope-like string attaching it to his belt, he emptied the coins into his palm and bit his lip. If he was lucky he'd have enough small change for a meal and wouldn't have to break much of his bigger money just to eat. He'd try to save that for a soft place to rest his head when the night came.
His head snapped up suddenly and he looked around. It was still fairly early in the day so not many of the shops were open. But the residents of Epeta were starting their days work, either sweeping stoops, or cleaning and setting up shop for the day.
I wonder where they have good fish... He bit his lip in thought and wondered about asking someone, but an unexpected bout of shyness kept him from it. His full lower lip was becoming swollen and red with all the worrying he was doing to it. He shoved his change back into his pouch and pocket and took another, semi-confident step into the city.
Squinting his eyes he took in the array of people milling about, and those who seemed to be working. There isn't anyone who seems friendly. Everyone looks busy..or...irritated.
He sighed and kicked the air. Figuring that standing there aimlessly until someone decided to notice was just as good as bothering people who seemed busy. Eyes to the sky he thought, I hope this doesn't take too long. And he mentally smacked himself for reverting to typical water elf nature, and being shy.

Moelle was breathing heavily, disgust and anger obvously marring his features. "Jincing sister BLAHALAHFSDLFS!!" Jumbles of incoherent words left the Inno's mouth as he kicked up a weed that was lying on the road. He dug through his bag to see if he was missing anything. Everything he made last night was there and unharmed. A sigh of relief left him. He'd be able to sell his merchandise properly this time.
While he was making his way through his usual route around town, the group of 3 high elves he passed eyed him warily. He frowned. Meanies, he thought, looking at people like that makes them feel bad. Moelle stuck up his chin and walked as confidently as he could. Them high elves won't get him down. He had to get out of this town anyway.
He looked around at the folks around him and places he could sit and sell his stock. However, an elf caught his eye. He looked different than the other one he was used to seeing. He tilted his head to the left. "An unfamiliar face..." he murmured to himself. "He looks sad." The smug look on his face was replaced with a saddened expression. Moelle quickened his pace and jogged over.
"Elf-person, are you alright?" The Inno asked thoughtfully.

Ivah sighed, he rolled his head back on his shoulders, cracking his neck in the process. His shoulders slumped slightly as he looked back the city. A group of high elves passed him; their eyes had bored into him with a sort of higher-than-thou kind of dislike directed at him. He didn't do anything, so he didn't understand why they should hate him, but he stopped thinking on it right away.
Having not been paying attention, he jumped and looked at the Inno. He blinked thoughtfully for a moment, gaping like a fish. He hadn't expected anyone to approach him so soon. But thinking on it, this Inno seemed completely different, in almost every aspect, from what seemed to be the normal city goers that bustled around. Shrugging to himself he grinned lightly.
"Uhm...to an extent." He gestured vaguely at the ground. "You see...I just got here from Keeno, I don't know where anything is..and I'm starved." He blushed, his grin shrinking in embarrassment.
Great, now I feel like a moron. But... He eyed the other male for a moment. His eyes traveled up from the ground and over the Inno's physique. Inwardly he cheered. ...He is definitely a fine one to come upon first.
He laughed nervously at his obvious perusal of the other's form. "I-I'm Ivah by the way..." He extended his hand, the slender appendage trembling slightly within the confines of his tight leather glove.

Riko walked though the city happily wondering if this town of Epeta would hold a library of her liking. She walked up to a high elf. "excuse me but do u happen to know where a library may be" she said with a smile. "I don't have time for u young one....now leave me be..hmph"He said rudely, then He walked off with the other elves."god that was cruel he didn't have to say it like that...." It seemed that everyone she asked was too busy. Then she spoted to guys talking a couple of feet away. " they seem nice maybe they will help" she said as she wondered over to them."Um Hi excuse me... do u happen to know where a library may be"

Ivah jumped again, scrutinizing the female that walked up to them. He laughed nervously, his hand reaching back to scratch the back of his neck.
"Uhm...I actually just got into town, so I can't help you." He mentally cursed at himself for starting out so lamely. He glanced over at the Inno, still waiting for a name, at least, or directions.
He bit back a grimace as he looked over the female. Perhaps he was overreacting, maybe she wasn't so bad. Maybe she was a female he could get along with, she was after all looking for a library. He would be too after he rested up a bit and got some food in his stomach.
But that doesn't mean I'm going to try to get along... He smiled lightly, looking up at the sky.

Kasumi just seen a sign saying welcome to Epeta, after walking from Pesso. Her tan-ish cloak was a bit dirty from the travel and some of the passer byers were staring at the muddled look and started to gossip. The town wasn't too bad. The temperature was almost like Pesso, but a bit warmer. " Man were's a bulletin board when you need one." moaned Kasumi when she searched her wallet for money but it was dry like dirt. "I already finished all the people i need to get but when i turned them in, I got no money, darn swindlers." Thought Kasumi with a bored look. Looking at each corner for a pub or any rough house area for any fights to start. Passing by some stalls were people are buy and yelling out prices to lore customors in. I walked a little bit furtherer and people are still staring becuase i was the only one with a cloak on my head. " Man why does everyone just mind there own bussiness and start a Fight for goodness sake." Kasumi screamed into her head looking at all of the poepe around her.

Moelle smiled warmly at him. He seems nice, he thought. "Uhm...To an extent. You see I just got here from Keeno. I don't know where anything is...and I'm starved." The elf explained, blushing. His smile widened to a mirthful grin.
He's shy!
"Hello Ivah! Welcome to Epeta. I don't know if you've noticed..." Moelle paused and looked around then lightly grasped the collar of the elf's shirt. However, before he could utter a syllable a young girl interrupted them. The Inno jumped a few inches. That scared him.
"Y-yes, I do know where the library is." Moelle tried to calm himself down. Everytime there had been a girl that, he didn't know, approached him was usually asking about his ears, tails and making some sort of comment. "If you keep walking down the road you'll see a brick building." Moelle paused. "Ah! I forgot to introduce myself."
He laughed nervously and tapped the side of his face. "My name is Moelle. You can see my often at the center of this city. Come by when you need something."

Kasumi slumped into a tired-some sigh and kept on walking towards the market. everybody was somewhat minding there own business and yet kept on staring. Everytime she walked passed and elf of some sort, they snicker at her attire. "Man I wish I can slam there face, but I'll get arrested and there is no pub in jail. kasumi let out a bigger sigh and looker up. There were a three people talking to each other and the Inno was pointing out a building. Kasumi, that was thirsty walked up closer to them with her hood still over her face and asked "Do you know if there is a pub around here?" without any regret of interrupting they're conversation.

A corner of Moelle's lip twitched, followed by the widening of his eyes. His hands flew to his mouth and covered any signs of movement, hoping that it wasn't noticeable. That didn't happen very often. Attempting to speak, his words were spluttered and smeared. He blushed. "Yes." He sighed. "You can follow this young lady," gesturing to the girl that had approached them earlier, "and the next two buildings you'll see a wooden-built place that has a sign on top that says Yuikel's."

Nearly tired. she just started walking where the next two building, leaving the elf behind to get something to drink.

Ivah nodded with a smile. He turned his eyes to Moelle, almost completely disregarding the two females that had approached. He lifted a hand up and maneuvered it under his hair and hat, scratching his scalp while trying to keep his half-ling ears covered. Gray eyes shifted around nervously, he caught a particularly effeminate high elf sneering at him, but the male turned away when he noticed that Ivah's eyes were on him.
"Uhm..." He tapped his chin and frowned slightly, trying to figure out how to word his thoughts, "What do you sell? And..uh..." His hands grabbing onto his stomach he blushed a deep red, "Is there anywhere you'd recommend for fish?" He grinned lightly.
He had a feeling, if he took his gloves off, even the skin on his hands would be red. He bit his lip as he looked up at the Inno.

Kasumi scratching her head in diappointment when she turned the corner. she just realized that she went the wrong way and doesn't know where she is..... "Darn I'm lost........and I'm thirsty too." Sweared kasumi with a tear in the corner of her eye. "No fights, no tough poeple, and finally i got lost whats next!" roared Kasumi in her head. kasumi lifted her hand put it to her her to cool down, but this town seemed so boring she just wanted to start ruckus...."man..." kasumi sighed letting her arms droop down. She asked couple of poeple who were in the same place as she was but just nodded and smiled and walked away, as if they were afraid of me. Could of minutes later kasumi finally getting back into the market and noticed that she went the same way she came from....."Ugh!" spatted Kasumi hitting her forhead which left a mark. Going the same way she came, Kasumi forgot where the person told her to go. The Inno, elf and human-elf was still there and Kasumi walked towards them again, tired of getting lost and realizing where she was. Kasumi asked once again " Do you know where the pub is I forgot......" "Man...I just wanted a drink.." thought kasumi.

As the cloaked girl left, a feeling of guilt washed over him. Perhaps he could have introduced himself better, but he had other people on hand too. I'm horrible at multi-tasking... But, just as that thought passed him, he forgot to introduce himself to her. He groaned. There were other tasks he had to handle first.
When Ivah's voice reached his ears and tail flicked and twitched. "I sell trinkets and some weapons here and there for my friend," Moelle simpered. The nervous movements of the young elf didn't go unnoticed. He stared at Ivah's eyes. Compared to his hazel ones he felt plain. Embarassed, he quickly snapped out of his dreamy state and cleared his throat.
"F-F-Fish? Yes." He could feel his skin heat up all over, knowing his whole face was turning pink. Oh god. "I know a great place down near the pub I reccomended to the cloaked girl."
Then, when he finished his sentence, she approached them once again. "Oh. Yes, of course. I could walk you there too. We're headed towards the pub."

"Thanks, man i went the wrong way and got lost. this place is like a maze" moaned Kasumi. waiting for them to leave and head toward the pub. I'm so thirsty I can drink two gallons full of water. Still wondering what to get at the pub, she put her hands on her swords that were under her cloak and still thinking paying no attention to passer-biers.

Sitting in the library riko was calm and at her happiest. I hope that girl made it to the bar she was looking for..hmm..oh and that guy who helped me I should repay him next time we meet she though to herself.
After checking out the books Riko decided to do some adventuring with in the new town. "I wonder what mysterious things lay here haha" she grined as she spoke to herself.
Walking along she found the Yuikel's and decide to catch a bite to eat and what not. She walked in and sat at a bar " Hello...um I'll have whatever is great" She asked the bartender. "sure.." he said as he passed her a drink and some food.She read some of the books as she ate.

Kasumi finally went the right way and headed toward the entrance that had the sign over the door "Yuikel's" and as she entered gave a sigh of relief and sat down next to the girl with the book and a gave a big tired sigh. " Hey, I'll have some gin please." requested Kasumi with her hand up and her forhead rested on the table with her hood over her head.

Kasumi lefted her head as she heard a question. it was the girl next to her that had the book. When she heard the question, she began to break into tears. "It's so boring here! there are no fights or any ruckuses here, there is nothing fun around here." Replied kasumi slamming her head on the table once again leaving a bruise. "Uh..miss here's your gin" sweated the bar dude trying to see if she was alright. And most of the elves in the pub were staring at Kasumi after hearing the loud thump.
