      Veridis was not the only one to enter the city from a boat. Arriving from the far north came a knight named Alexander. Beside him stood his mount and only friend left in the world. A dire wolf dressed in the attire of a battle horse. It was custom made to fit on the dire wolf though. The man sighed as he could feel the heat from the city. He looked towards his loyal mutt whose head was leveled to his. [color=00aeef]"Well old friend, looks like we might have to fix your armor for the life in a desert. I might get hotter then a red dragon's cave for us if we stay in the armor. Sadly I am not as combat ready without mine so I will have to suffer. You on the other hand... We can remove a few things. Keep the head plate, lose the rest."[/color] The companion seemed to agree. You could easily tell from the guys panting. He ruffled the dogs fur at the top of his head with a pat. Of course this gave him a face full of slobber from the dogs tongue. Touche... 

     The exited the boat and into the city getting eyes from a lot of the folk. He wasn't the one drawing in all the attention. They must have seen knights like him before but the mount was a new one. He stopped at a merchant who was selling mount armor. [color=00aeef]"You buy armor too right? How much for my friend's chain mail?"[/color] He gestured to the chain armor under the saddle upon the battle mount. The merchant looked to the dire wolf and back to him. [color=fdc68a]"200 gold,.."[/color] The man offered. Alex sighed and scratched his head. He was hoping for more but this will just have to do. He unstrapped the saddle and placed it down for a second and then removed the chain mail underneath and placed it on the merchant's stall counter. The merchant counted out the gold into a money pouch and handed it to him. One man moved as if thinking to steal it but Fordis moved in between him before he could. The thief stared at the growling muzzle of the most biggest dog he ever seen. The puddle underneath his pant leg that began to form showed his fear as the dire wolf began to growl at him. It's teeth were as big as long as the mans palm. This made the thief literally shit himself and step away. Alex snorted at the man as he ran off. He took the gold and placed it underneath the white silk sash where his other gold pouch was and nodded to the merchant. [color=6ecff6]"Thanks for the business."[/color] He said. 
   
     With that they walked for a little while longer and one guard walked by and stopped in his tracks to look at Fordis and whistled. It was a common response of respect and Alex smiled with pride. [color=fdc68a]"Hey adventurer.. you look like you could handle a quest. Go to the tavern down the street. Heard the mages guild is looking for a group to go find something in the desert. You should take a look at it."[/color] The guard said. Alex nodded and looked to Fordis and shrugged. [color=6ecff6]"Might as well,.. got nothing else better to do."[/color] He said and followed the guards directions right after thanking him for the tip. He thanked him by giving him permission to pet the dire wolf's head. Of course he thought he would get a fine when the wolf covered the guards face with slobber but they just laughed and kept going. What a nice place this is... 

  They came upon the tavern and he knew Fordis would have to stay outside. He moved him to the troth where all the other mounts were. He didn't bother tying him down. who would try and steal a dire wolf? Fordis was also well behaved and would attack anyone either unless they gave him reason. With that he entered the tavern and could feel the cold air from within and gratefully accepted it. He looked around the tavern and noticed the group gathered with a wizard looking man and figured they were the group. He walked over and sat down. [color=6ecff6]"Alexander Von Wolfe at your service."[/color] He said. 

   The wizard look at the people who came in to join them and he was a little surprised by the diversity so far. Each one looked unique in their own way. Funny how quests of wealth and glory tend to gather people from all over. He nodded to the four who had joined them and gestured to the seats. He then gestured to the bar keep and the man brought over some refreshments. Ice cold water. Alex took this with kindness and took a long drag before stopping.

 Vivian looked to the man and rose a brow. A man from the north and... well the woman looked like she was from around that area too. Then there was the barbarian looking fellow and... okay the drow wasn't going to lie but the next one was pretty handsome. A bard by the looks of it and she sighed. Well this will be the adventure where she loses her virginity. That's right she kept her body a temple until she would meet the right man. That never happened in the underdark but here... the man was inviting. Then again so was the knight and the woman with the giant hammer too. The woman still looked very inviting even with the caked on sand. It made her look even more hot no pun included.
