The leather and cloth padding that made up his armor was good enough for his body, but the cloak seemed sparse protection from the occasional gust on his exposed face. The pin stood out on the washed out green colors of the cloak. Ordinarily, he would never have considered wearing something that would make him distinguishable to others- but he knew from his dealings with the rangers that such things were the difference between an arrow in the back and a warm flagon of ale. Either was welcome at this point, if it cured the chill in his body. Vamyr urged his horse slightly faster, the village had already entered sight. It would be a shame to freeze to death before he got there. On clattering across the first stones marking the town proper, a rising commotion made it fairly obvious where he needed to be. The elf stood out in the dimming light, standing to the side of a cart, likely used for hauling dung, vegetables, or both simultaneously. Beauty was a given, among the race of the fair folk. It was her armor that truly made her stand out. Few elves would willing travel this far from their homes, and fewer still would have the luxury of such protection. He paused for a moment beside the cart, not turning to look at her directly. To those ahead in the square, it would appear he was observing them, rather than speaking to a spy.

Quickly."[/color] Paused a moment and began riding on toward the group before finishing the comment. [color=f7976a]”This far north, anyone with [i]that[/i] equipment is either a friend… or an enemy.”[/color] That said, he continued, pausing near the group. He didn’t dismount though. Vamyr instead shook his sword in its sheath to be sure it wouldn’t stick, scanning the odd trio. [color=f7976a]”Who sent for me?”[/color]
