The stable master smiles "Yer all too kind! It's good to see yer fame aint gone to yer heads. I have a feeling ya just changed that ones life forever. " You see that pretty much everyone in the stables has gathered around to watch the sparring match. Most starring slack jawed in wonder. Some of the younger boys shoving each other saying "see I told ya yer shoulda gone talked to em"
The sparring concludes with Filicity graciously allowing the boy to get a strike on her as she falls down in a most impressive display of faked death. Everyone in the stables cheers loudly and several come to pat the boys back. He is grinning so wide you fear his face may stick that way.
(do the mounts have barding? Are the mounts ours to keep or just borrow?"
ooc: the mounts do not have barding. they are just riding mounts and not trained for battle. Tessa didn't say anything about returning them so you assume they are yours to keep.
So after saying your farewells to the stable hand and all who have gathered you start making you're way out of town to the north (if darth has anything he needed in town we can figure that out later)
The northern road is well traveled and the morning passes uneventfully. There is a fair amount of people traveling and you pass by folks pulling carts or wagons bringing their wares into the city, every now and then you pass by an armed guard and other common folks about their business.
Filicity having grown up in Tessaria (The name of the city with the Colosseum by the way, most folks just considering it a coincidence that The Lady's name is so similar, or perhaps thinking it's a family name passed to her. None suspecting that is was actually her who founded the town) knows that there is a little hamlet that you will reach by mid afternoon. (so with the mount(s) getting used to the chain you would arrive in the evening) It's name being Collosusville. It's mostly just a stopping point for travelers on the way to the city but is known for having wonderful baked goods that are sold in the city at many shops. The towns most prominent structures being the inn and the bakery next door. Other than that there is a stable, a general goods store and a smattering of houses.
(So would Rend have been able to buy barding and stuff before leaving, otherwise he would take Herbert to the stables to look for the equipment listed in the OOC channel.)
Rend would stroll into town and head strait to the bakery. "Hello! can I get two pies please?" The kobold would ask as he pulls his bag of coin from his belt. "I would like one for myself and one for my friend Herbet" Rend would say to the shop keeper.
Halizthan will go over to one on the mounts and quickly climb into the saddle. He has not changed much of his appearance but does have a pack with several supplies he had gotten for himself. "The boy could show great potential I must say. If he trains his dreams could perhaps someday come true."
As they leave the drow will keep one hand on his staff while keeping the other on the reigns of his horse. "So this should be an interesting trip. Hopefully it will not involve spending too much time in the Underdark."
(I'll let you know what I would have gotten once I can post on something other than my phone.)
The shop keeper, a well rounded dwarf woman stares at you blinking in surprise "You're Rend! Oh my, Oh my" looking somewhat flustered she tries do dust some of the flour off herself "Uhm, yes, yes, of course. We have some fresh huckleberry pies still warm in the back" She yells out "LIly, Lily... bring 2 berry pies right away!" Turning back to you she says "I saw you fight once. You were amazing! I can't believe THE REND is buying my pies!"
A young lady comes out from the back carrying 2 pies "Here Ma" she says putting the pies on the counter and turning to walk away she gets a swift slap on the back of her head from her mother. "This is Rend, THE REND, you come back here and bow like a proper lady right this instant"
Lily shrugs and turns with a typical sullen teenage air and bows saying in a very monotone voice "Pleased to meet you Mister The Rend, thank you for visiting our humble shop" she straightens with an extremely bored look on her face.
Rend would smile as the two pies are brought to him. "excuse me for one moment!" He would exclaim before walking out the door with a pie in each hand. Once outside the kobold would gently place whichever pie looked nicer in front of Herbert. "Now you eat up ok boy? I need your belly full for any more traveling we do today." Rend would say with a smile before giving the large brown mastiff a scratch on his head. Quickly turning around, Rend would make his way back into the bakery with one claw already digging into the pie and scooping it into his mouth at a fairly rapid rate. Once back at the counter, the Kobold would wipe his hand and face with an old fur attached to his belt before speaking again. "THANK YOU VERY MUCH for the delicious pie!" he would exclaim. "I thought it was tasty and Herbert seemed to like it as well, so how are you fine folks doing today? Is there anything I can do for you while I am in town? I am afraid I don't think we will be in town very long." The kobold would say looking into the eyes of the dwarven shopkeeper.
"I don't know what you could do for us? I wouldn't dream of asking anything of you! I'm sure you'd drink for free all night at the inn though! My husbands beard is gonna fall off when he see's you! He's the one who runs the bar there. His name is Lukak"
J’Anna ties her horse at the stable, “Stable master please water and feed my stallion.” She tosses a couple gold to him. “I need a drink myself, the roads been dusty.” She turns and heads to the inn/tavern
"Well the next time I step into the arena, I will be sure to credit your pies for giving me the strength to win my match" The kobold says with a smile. A moment later he would pull out two of his new daggers. laying one on the table he would use the other one to engrave his name on the handle of the first blade before handing it to the woman. "Here, you can have that. it is always nice to meet a fan" Rend would say with a toothy smile. "Please take this as well for the pies." The kobold would say dropping 10 gold on the table. "From what I can tell you have yourself a wonderful family, I keep up the fine work." Rend would say looking from the shop keeper to the daughter and then back to the shop keeper. "What is your name?" Rend would ask of the dwarven woman before Thanking her and Lilly and leaving the 10 gold and signed dagger on the counter.
Rend would then make his way towards the general goods store, leaving Herbert to eat is pie tied to a post.
J’Anna walks into the inn, scans the room then chooses a seat towards the end of the bar that allows her to see the entire room, especially the door. “Bartender some refreshment please.”
Felicity joins J'Anna at the stable with her mount and adds with a wink, "Oh do mine too if you could."
She strokes her mare's neck and says, "I'll be back. Be good if you would."
Felicity then unstraps her broom from the saddlebags and mutters a phrase. The broom comes to life and she jumps on with two legs hanging off one side. She gives a whistle and zooms out of the stable making a beeline for the nearest bar.
Rend, you leave the dwarf, Thegwynn, behind sputtering about you leaving her too much money while clutching the dagger to her chest and head to the general store.
J'anna enters the inn to a somewhat stale beer smell mixed with wood smoke. There is a good crowd at the bar, a dozen folks or so and as you approach the bar you can already see a couple people pointing and can overhear whispers of "I'm telling you that's her." with a few people backing away from you wearily. There is a long bearded dwarf behind the bar serving a couple pints.
Edit: Felicity would be entering the inn now too and showing up on her broom has left no doubt to the patrons of who you are. 4 brave (or intoxicated) folks get up from one of the tables and meeting you at the bar say "Champion J'anna Champion Felicity! Please let us buy you a round"
"Bye Thegwynn! Bye Lilly!, i will say hi to Lukak if I happen to meet him!" The kobold will say as he waves and heads out the door, not paying attention to her as she tries to let him know he gave her too much money. After giving herbert a nice long head rub, He would take the pie faced dog to the stables. "Hello friend, would you plese watch Herber here for me? He just ate a pie so he may be a little thirsty. Here is some money for your trouble." the kobold would say dropping 5 gold into the hand of the stable-master before walking towards the general store. Once inside the store, Rend would make his way to the counter. "Hello!" the kobold would say with his claws and the tip of his snout poking up over the counter. "I would like to purchase some supplies please. I would like to write some letters..." Rend would say bouncing up and down.
The shopkeeper greets you. "Yes of course, sir. I have some ink right over here." he retrieves an ink, quill and some papers. "That will be 10gold. Writing to a loved one young sir?" he says while pushing his glasses back up his nose.
"I hope so!" The kobold says excitedly, handing the man 15 gold. "Do you think I need any fancy wax seals or anything? Do women like those?" The koblold would say looking around the shop.
The shopkeeper laughing says "Oh, you must be smitten! Ahh, I hope she's a fine lass. I do have some sealing wax and 2 seals. One seal has a flower carved in it, the other has a fist. Which one would you like?"
The stable master smiles "Yer all too kind! It's good to see yer fame aint gone to yer heads. I have a feeling ya just changed that ones life forever. " You see that pretty much everyone in the stables has gathered around to watch the sparring match. Most starring slack jawed in wonder.

"Well done, well done!!!" J'Anna claps. "Now remember that feeling boy," she says, "and every time you enter the ring recall it!"
ooc: the mounts do not have barding. they are just riding mounts and not trained for battle. Tessa didn't say anything about returning them so you assume they are yours to keep.
