Arieh's departure of the bar led him to the most foul beast he had encountered yet, and sadly one he couldn't kill, though he was sure many would pay him for such an act. All he could do was paw at his beard in annoyance.

[color=c4df9b]"Hume, what obligation do I have to provide you with work? Even if you did pick off a few of your fellows, the most you would get would be a raised eyebrow. I come from a more proud people than that. If you are so desperate though, come. Help me slay a hydra. I would like to show you how a proud hunter dispatches his prey. Nature respects strength, and even the most forsaken monster is a part of nature."[/color]

Arieh glanced at the people around him, seeing the group of hunters glancing out from the smith shop. The same group that often harried him about his race... and the same group that were wide eyed each time he returned with a hunt's proof, occasional heads much larger than he was. Arieh's annoyance at them turned to a terrifying roar that shook the area. It was relatively quiet compared to Arieh's normal one.

[color=c4df9b]"Human hunters, what is your business? If you are curious, come, come and die unprepared. If you are not curious, leave us be."[/color]

With that, Arieh headed to the outskirts of town, he was sure the other beast was still with him.

[color=c4df9b]"I know not about this beast, other than it's a hydra. If it's young, I shall rend its heart, and that's that. If it's more mature, with harder scales, I shall simply outmatch it. I don't suppose the normal head as proof shall do, we shall bring back the heart of this beast one way or another. Perhaps they would believe our story, but I do not like to be shorted or dishonored with pay. I do consider this will kill your obvious boredom. Perhaps you should find a woman."[/color]
