((Evening...))
Noxa chuckled a little, a faint but amused sound deep in her throat. "Your enthusiasm does you credit, but there are other ways to prove yourself. And if everyone did nothing but fight, who would tend the farms or run the mills?"
((Morning...))
Noxa awoke, slightly stiff after her travels the day before but otherwise well. She checked her satchel and got ready for the day, wondering if the others were up yet.

Yuan-ta held up his hands in surrender, "Good point, good point... and certain people will never be able to find the drive or ability to go adventuring and they will do what calls to them, I guess... but then you have people like me and you, who go out into the world to make their fortune or win it. We who see an opportunity... and take it as our own." He clenched a scaled fist, as if he was clutching a fistful of gold. "Bold we may be, but the world favors the bold." He chuckled a little bit at another thought, "It also sends them into a frozen hell, but that's just me complaining. My point is, there will be people to farm who will be happy doing so, and people like me who take the world as it is and take it for all of its glories, who look for adventure and secrets long forgotten. People whom bards write ballads about."
In the morning, Yu was still sitting by the fireplace. He nodded to Noxa as she walked in.

Morn was slumped over a table fast asleep in the tavern with several tankards of mead surrounding him when he woke up with a grunt. He lifted himself off of the table, and walked to the nearest water basin to wash his face. After doing so, he walked over to the fireplace to see Yu and Noxa nearby.
"Up already, eh? You all see that Drystan up and about yet?"

After a long and restful sleep, Bhob awoke quite early in the morning, and for the first time in weeks, he actually had a real job to do, so he didn't dally, and got to the meeting point on time.

Noxa nodded, agreeing with Yu in general terms although she didn't really consider herself an adventurer. "What kind of 'secrets long forgotten' do you think we'll find on this journey? No one knows what happened to the Dwemer..."
((Morning...))
Noxa greeted Yu in turn, and answered the bearded Nord cordially. "No I haven't. But it's still a little early, I'm sure he'll be up soon..."
But as it seemed they were going to have a little time before they had to set out, Noxa found the landlady ((or whoever's running the place if Delphine is out)) and bought herself some breakfast ((something warm, given a choice, unless Drystan turns up in the process in which case something that will travel, like cheese)) before going to sit by Yu.
((Speaking of which, berny, should we be keeping tight track of our money and equipment?))

((It's good to keep tight about money, but not severely important. When buying supplies for everbody, Drystan has that covered.))
Drystan opened the door and walked inside the tavern seeing just about everybody ready to go. "It's rather temperate out and it's light enough for us to see well. Good traveling conditions. We'll be on the road in five minutes."
With that Drystan walked back outside and waited in front of the Sleeping Giant.
Morn gathered his gear together, slung his bag over his shoulder and followed him.

"Well then," He smiled a many-toothed sharp smile, "what if we find out what happened? Or discover rather allot of them somewhere? Seems to me like they might have left something behind as well... and I will be perfectly happy if the only thing we find is a pair of rather magical boots or some minor artifacts. Not everything is about tales and secrets, money and shiny things to make you fancy," The argonian held one of his pinky's up, "are also perfectly acceptable."
Yuan-Ta pointed at him and in a hiss native to his race said, "There."
Yu ordered some bread, hard cider and cheese from the bar as he waited to get on teh road, shrugging as Noxa chose to sit by him. Who was he to decide where she decided to place her bum? He wondered why they had to go so early, the sun was hardly up and it would be cold... maybe not for the pinkskins, but for him. Damn this Skyrim...

Drystan saw the look in Yu's eyes when he mentioned that they would be setting out in five minutes. So when he went outside he quickly stopped at the Riverwood Trader.
Lucan, the owner of the shop, welcomed him. "Good morning and welcome to the Riverwood Trader! How may I serve you?"
Dyrstan eyed the golden claw on Lucan's desk and replied, "Interesting claw you have there, but you might want to put it somewhere that would make it not so easy to reach. Anyways, I would like a nice heavy fur cloak."
"Now? It's a bit warm, don't you think?"
"Not for an Argonian. How much will that be?"
"30 septims."
Drystan handed Lucan the money, took the cloak and walked back to the Sleeping Giant to hand Yu the cloak. "Here. You look like you need this."

Noxa was sufficiently distracted by the indirect reference to her profession that the next sentence was as much thought as spoken aloud. "I want to know how they made their metal. I've never heard of anyone mining for it..."
((Morning: ))
Noxa had intended to ask Yu what kind of armor he wanted seeing as they were going to pick up supplies, but one look at the grumpy Argonian's face convinced her to save that conversation for later. Maybe once they were on their way to Whiterun. She packed away her breakfast to eat on the road, checked to be sure her tools were in order and followed Drystan outside to wait with Morn.

Yu smiled, patting her shoulder. "That's the spirit! Always look for something new, or at least onld enough to be forgotten, and you will never be disappointed~!" He stretched, yawning widely and standing. "You of course should rest first though, looking for new things while being half-asleep is... dangerous." He moved closer to the fireplace, and looked at her again. "Of course, if you would just like to chat I'm perfectly happy to oblige!" He hummed cheerfully, taking a seat by the fire and gesturing to an open chair.
((Morning))
Yu looked at the fur cloak and looked at his employer with new found respect. "Thank you..." Now this was nice of him. And it was even in his size! "Thank you very much... how much do I owe you?"

"Nothing." replied Drystan nonchalantly. "It wasn't very expensive anyways. Come along now you lot. Whiterun may not be very far, but it's still several days away and we want to get there on schedule to meet with my contact."
Drystan then walked back outside.

Noxa found herself almost yawning too and shook her head. "No, I'd better not. If we're going to have an early start tomorrow we're both going to need a good night's sleep. I'll see you in the morning." She bid Yu good night went off to the room she'd paid for to sleep. ((I don't know about you but I'm running out of conversation topics...unless you want to be like the NPCs and endlessly repeat.  ))

((Evening)) ((Haha, we could have just said that they were chatting for a rather long time and eventually bade each other good night.  ))
Yu waved, bidding goodnight to Noxa as he curled up against the fireplace.
((Morning)) Yu pulled on the furs and walked out of the inn with Drystan. He made sure to place himself next to Noxa when they all got together. "Good morning..."

Yu nodded, stretching slightly. "This is nice and warm... sure it doesn't cover my face or hands, but that would be asking for too much." The Argonian gave her a toothy grin, "And how is the master smith this morning? Well rested, I would hope."

"I'm well, thank you." The Argonian's mood seemed to have improved with the cloak, so Noxa decided it was safe to continue the conversation. "You asked me about armor last night, you never did say what kind you wanted."

Yuan's face brightened even more. "Well, I was thinking of something light that I could move easily in, but that provides more protection than chainmail. Maybe a suit of scale armor?" The Argonian shrugged, "I've heard of it, but never seen an actual suit..."

Morn listened in on their conversation and interjected with a chuckle. "Funny that, I thought all Argonians were born with them."
Drystan ignored Morn's comment and noticing everybody outside, he stepped foot upon the trail and walked towards the bridge, which would take them across the White River towards Whiterun.

(evening) Once the ruckus had died down abit, Septimus judged that he could finally get a meal in peace, he approached the counter where Orgnar was busy-working.
~"'Don't suppose that you have any rooms available, and a hot meal?"
"Were fresh out of rooms thanks to all you adventuring types, *tossing his head at the others* feel free to sleep/rest on the bench, as for a hot-meal, you like Skeever liver?"
Septimus paused with the answer, none too happy about his options.
~"Skeever liver? I'll pass."
"No? Tough luck, it's all we got left."
~"Very well, skeever liver it is, and a mug of mead to water it down, after-all fortune favors the bold, eh?"
"Whatever, that'll be five septims for the mead and two for the food"
Septimus cast the appropriate sum on the counter.
"Take a seat, I'll be over in a sec'."
After a short-while Orgnar tramped out from the dark, and clumsily placed the mead on the table, then a plate with an unappetizing smell struck Septimus' keen sense of smell.
Twisting his head at first, Septimus decided to brave-on, picking up his fork with an effort. He first inspected the texture of the "food", then he hesitantly cut a piece, and promptly skewered it with his fork, once that was under his belt he brought it on-course to his mouth. He finally placed it in his mouth, it was 'fine' at first, but once his teeth pierced the outer-layers, a strange viscous juice oozed from withing, instantly causing Septimus to spit out that unholy chunk of meat.
Once done with that he dashed for the mead, and chugged it down in an attempt to get rid of the horrendous taste.
"Food's hot. Never said it was good." Orgnar said while letting loose a sadistic smile, then trudged off to whatever it is that he does. (implying that he doesn't do much)
Septimus pushed aside his plate, and hastily vacated the general area, and returned to his seat by the fire. (clutching his mead of course)
Once seated, he dozed off shortly. (he was weary from his long journey)

Noxa looked thoughtful for a moment, but at last nodded. "I think I can do that, once I pick up some supplies in Whiterun. I'll take measurements when we stop for the night." Sadly the Riverwood smith hadn't had a spare anvil when she'd asked the day before. That was probably for the best; traveling on foot with something that heavy was problematic.
