Karen looked with a smile at her two new superiors and weighted them at the same time. While Lady Buxton seemed serious and responsible, Sir Chester on the other hand, his temperament changed the moment he saw her face. It was impossible not to notice what exactly was going on in his head. The olive skinned woman didn’t mind that one bit thoug. [color=f7941d] “Pleasure to meet you both.”[/color] Karen greeted too and with a smile looked at Sir Chester.[color=f7941d]” I don’t mind stares, in my opinion they should be taken as form of a compliment. If a man stares, then he likes what he sees.”[/color] The assassin stated with playful smile. Who knew, maybe one of these nights it was this charming gentleman she was going to keep warm in the bed with. He certainly seemed smitten with her and she did need some relaxing from the long ride to this place. [color=f7941d] “Ahh yeah, I would like to know, if provisions are going to be supplied or we will need to buy them ourselves. Also on that note I want to know if we will be given some money in advance to buy final preparations before our departure tomorrow or we will have to buy those too?. “[/color] She asked with curious voice. It wasn’t that Karen didn’t have money to buy what she needed, but it was sure going to be nice to have the additional funds to buy some more luxury things with her money while at it. Just as the assassin finished saying that, a man entered the inn. She recognized him, she had the feeling someone was following her outside and she did notice him when she reached the inn. With that said he certainly didn’t hit her a guy who was going to cause too much troubles. If nothing else he wasn’t an assassin… his ability to hide and blend with surroundings was too much nonexistent. Still when he pulled his sword, Karen’s fingers quickly touched the edge of one of the knives hidden in her sleeves. It was impossible to notice this subtle gesture without knowing what to look for specially, but even then it would be hard with her current clothing, as the cloak covered her arms. When he plunged himself to the floor however her fingers immediately relaxed and she smiled. For someone who looked so dangerous he certainly didn’t act the part. A former clergy man eh? Gwain certainly seemed serious about joining the Consano and going against the hordes of the dead. [color=f7941d] “A dull sword is fine…”[/color] Karen spoke out of the sudden with confident voice. “[color=f7941d] A dull sword can become as sharp as razor if taken care of properly.”[/color] She stated.[color=f7941d]” His physique isn’t bad, with some proper training he should be able to hold his ground.”[/color] Karen added with a confident nod. [color=f7941d]“Hmm it seems all of us applicants arrived at the same time.”[/color] Karen said to Sir Chester and Lady Buxton, nodding her head in the direction of the newly entered the building. It was a woman and she looked rather petite and kind of cute in the dark skinned woman’s eyes. Well there was time for everything. While the former priest was still putting on the show, the petite woman standing near the door and waiting, Karen took off her cloak and hanged it on the chair she was sitting on. Then she took off the fox pelt she was using as a scarf, followed by untying the knots on the strings that kept the front part of the furs closed. Now that the front of the furs was open, you could see the linen shirt underneath. She quickly stood up and went to the innkeeper.[color=f7941d]” A plate of food and a jug of wine!” [/color]She gave him her order with a smile. Then she noticed another thing. She was sure there was someone in front of the door. With a wave of her hand to Lady Buxton and Sir Chester to catch their attention, she then pointed to the door. Moving quietly as if she wasn’t stepping on her wooden floor, without any noise, she went to the front door, passing by the new girl. She gave her a friendly smile before proceeding to open the door. Quickly pulling the wooden door she exposed the man who was there listening.[color=f7941d]” So… what do we have here? A rather big rat or did you per chance drop coin and now are searching for it?”[/color] She asked him with a smile.
