...Rask wanted Thena to learn him how to fight? Now there was a surprise for you. The elf blinked a few times to process what the man had just said, though grinning afterwards. She should've expected it, really, considering Wretha was asked to teach magic. This journey should be proving interesting if anyone was asking her for brawling lessons. At least her new boss wasn't someone who thought they could do everything. "Sure, Why not? Dunno how I'll train ya yet, but I'll think of somethin' by tomorrow." Afterwards Rask dismissed the two of them. Thena made her way back up the stairs and out of the building, throwing her hands behind her neck. The elf shot Wretha another look and a grin, not saying anything. Took her a few seconds to break away the gaze but afterwards she headed further into town to gather her supplies. The gold pouch hung in front of the elf as she pondered what to d with all that money. 500 was a generous amount and, truth be told, Thena didn't need nearly as much. She had armor enough and her weapon of choice didn't need maintaining so that was settled. She'd have to get a few clothes, though that couldn't cost more than 70 at worst. Food would expire fast unless she buys a lot of meat and salt, which is expensive. Not the smartest... Would probably be best to buy rations for a day or two and then get some gear to hunt for food. She isn't a great shot though... Wasn't there that kid with the bow? It'd probably wise if Thena asked him for a few lessons, much alike what Rask asked of her and Posh. Then there's the issue of water... It'd probably be best to get a canister or two and fill them up in a river nearby. It feels like she's forgetting something, though... Thena looked down at her sides, pondering for a bit until hit with realization. "Right... I'll need a cloak..." Thena had gathered all her supplies and had gone back to the tavern she did guard work for earlier in the day. The offer was to get a free night in a guest room in exchange for keeping unwanted people out successfully. Lucky her that the elf had experience with this kind of work before, it wasn't too hard to score a safe resting place for the night. She went over what she had bought again. A set of clothes to wear in situations where her armor would be a hindrance, going for about 25 coins. Quite the bargain really. A cloak of wolf pelt, costing her roughly 108. A hunting bow with about five arrows, going for a staggering 124 coins. Wasn't easy to get her hands on something that'd hold up. A simple, low effort knife at the bargain price of 7 gold. It was utter rubbish, but she needed only to cut open flesh to be able to eat it anyway. Food for two days, 9. Two flasks, empty. Only about 30. Luckily she already had a travelling bag for when on foot, so keeping her stuff together was easy enough. Double checking her stuff again, Thena finds everything to be adequate. She did the math in her head, coming to the conclusion that she had 197 or maybe a little less gold remaining, which wasn't bad. It'd probably be best to hold onto for later, and maybe give a portion of it back to Rask. She truly didn't need 500. Sighing after that exhausting mental exercise Thena laid down on the bed provided and fell asleep, not even bothering to cover herself with something to ward off the cold. Thena opened her eyes at a random point in the night, nothing close to light being able to be spotted outside. Seems the elf only got a little sleep, as signaled by her body refusing to get up. It was probably for the best anyway, she did have to be at the location Rask specified at an early time anyway. The crushing blow to her side now started acting up, something definitely got messed up in her fight. Say what you will about how tough this bitch is, she still got hit with a hammer on her bare skin. Not the most pleasant of feelings, especially not when the wound has had time to really sink it's teeth in. Still, it's best Thena got out of this place and into the open. She might kill some time roughing up a few morons who take her for a fool. Jumping out of the bed she grabbed the bag resting in the corner and flung the hunter's bow onto her back, then made her way down the stairs of the tavern. Night shift had started and the crowd at that time of day was less numerous, but they still had a good influx of customers. Thena didn't care though. She exited through the door, nodding to the current guard to signal her leave. The skies started to clear up above the female elf's head and small rays of sunlight shone through. It's about time she made her way over to the gate, though Thena had made sure to stick relatively close to it so she wouldn't end up too late like an idiot. Probably still a little though. A little practice was gotten from the free time the brunette had, learning how to at least steadily hold a bow and aim an arrow somewhat accurately. She still sucked at it, though. Thena arrived at one point, looking around if any of the others had shown up. She saw the kid, the boss, and another person though she couldn't quite make out who that person was. Didn't matter. "Oi, boss. I'm here." Thena's eyes were drawn to the equipment bags on the floor. Shit, he even got that for them? This guy was going above and beyond what even most GUILDS would supply...
