Zentesh kicked the door to the inn open as he walked inside. Over his shoulder he carried a bag full of fish and in his mind a sigh formed. He decided to let it out.
He was bored, as he usually found himself on the island. Sure there was sun, long beaches, the coolest water and the highest mountains. But winter had come to the land, covering the place with snow.
He sighed again as he came up to the bar and sat down. It was definately winter. He needed something to do in the mean time.
"Bartender! Something to drink please!"

A cold breeze entered the bar along with a handsome young man. He seemed unfazed by cold air of the winter evening, and strangely the snow that lightly dusted his shoulders didn't seem to be melting, as it normally should have been.
Yami seemed to glide as he walked through the tavern towards the bar, catching the eye of every woman and even some men as he passed. Gracefully he perched atop the stool, which stood beside the large reptilian man. He tapped the bar tender as he was handing the other man his drink and ordered some booze. The bartender left them to retrieve the drink leaving Yami almost alone at the bar.

Alone it seemed except for Zentesh, who had at that time his drink and looked over at Yami.
"A toast, to the peaceful city of Abastecimiento, in the land of Coast Lamiere." He took a swig at his beer then slamed it against the counter. "I'm thousands of miles from home, as far away from war and fighting as you can get and look at me. All I crave now is a little excitement."
He grumbled as he let his head hit the counter. "No work for a mercanary, no war for a healer and no church for a preacher. All there is is miles of beach and sun. It would be nice to get out except that there's no where to go to. No adventure, no excitement." He took another swig of beer.

Yami smiled at the man and raised his glass as well. " Here, here," he said and took a gulp from his drink, which had arrived in time for him to reply. He began to feel warm and a small smile graced his features.
"Though I am not a man of as many talents, a simple wanderer like me needs a little excitement.. helps me stay in touch with the world.... I think I need to settle down again."

"Settling down is not the path for me." Zentesh thought about what he had said. "No it's a lie. I guess that all this traveling has made me weary. Seeing places that people can only imagine. I'm still young for my species yet I have seen much, done much. Married once, had children to my wife. All slaughtered in endless wars."
He looked down into his glass. "What is it to settle down again. Is it right for me?" He twirled his finger around the rim and thought about it.
