As Argen watched and listened to everyone as everyone started to decide on the different things they would do with the morning before they take the quest, Argen spoke out and said, [color=#C0C0C0]"I will have to decline the offer as I have to do some preparations. I will see you all at the Recruiting Office"[/color]. As Argen began to leave and began his preparations for this trip. 

He left to go to his home and gather what he had for such an endeavor. He sighs as he enters a small worn down house. It was more like a shack, but still worked as he entered to begin his collection. A large pelt of a bear worn with scars and stitches, yet still was good at keeping warmth even in the hellish nights of cold. His large bear cloak he now places over his brown coat and chain armor. He cleans and checks his boots for any damage he could repair before leaving, and then switches to his heavy duty bag instead of his light Burlap sack bag. 

He starts collecting all of his small cooking things, a small pot so he can make hot water to warm up in the morning and maybe prep something for a meal while they are out, a wooden spoon for him to heat up some good old stew, and a wooden bowl for said stew, he took note to buy some ingredients and continued his collection of things. He then grabs a roughly carved wooden mug that seems to have a few nicks here and there but is still good for use. He holds it for a moment and sighs as he rubs his hand on the side with a small carved Spero on it. He placed it into his bag as he continued to grab items. He grabbed the food he bought to sustain himself for about a few days, but he knew it was not enough, so he would need to buy more, but it shouldn't be too bad. At least with him buying some fresh ingredients it would make up for food. 

Now as he looks at everything he has he heads out to buy the last little bit of things he would like to have before heading to the meet his party. He went out and bought some potatoes, a bit of spices (enough to make a bland stew less bland), a black scarf that can be used to cover his face or just leave at his neck so he will keep his neck warm and feel better, and a tarp and some metal spikes so he can make a cover to break the wind or cover against snow fall at night. As he leaves he sighs out a deep breath as he takes his pelt that is wrapped around himself and tightens it as begins his journey to the Recruiting Office, with the sun barely heading over and began to start hitting him. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the rest of his party were either at the office or about to arrive the wait wasn't long. As the page began to guide them to the carts, he shot Argen a look, a look he knew all too well. However immediately shot the same look towards one of his partymates. To whom Argen could not tell as he couldn't follow his line of sight clearly, but that means that someone else had a similar reputation of having a shady history even if it is on purpose or not. He didn't bring it up as it would be useless as he didn't know the person, but it did not leave much of a mark as people did what they did and he'll leave it at that. If it comes to it and it becomes a problem he is willing to start a search for information, but that can wait. Right now he needs to focus on the situation at hand loading this cart with bags.

On the instruction of Ettamri, Argen began loading bags without saying a word of back sass or affirmation he just began his work with a sigh as the cold feels like hell froze over and left the gate open. He took off his cloak, weapons, and bag as he set them near the entrance and set off to work. He started off easy to just see how heavy each bag was. After a few bags he started grabbing 2 bags at a time to speed up the process. His brown coat was not all too thick, it was just enough to stop Argen from shivering profusely, and not too much more, but it did keep him warm enough to do work with ease. As he did his work he did it in silence as he doesn't really have anything to talk about to others. If they needed something they could ask him if they didn't they would do their work and not bother him. He watched as Oscar was playing with Katya and wanted her to 'help' him, it was fine as it would begin to help her get to know someone more and make a friend, but Argen didn't pay much more mind to it as there is still plenty of bags to move.
