OOC: Yeah. Sounds like a plan.

Yep

Allysa dreamed of her life before she had met Vasilli ten years ago, focusing mostly on her childhood and the dreary days of boredom before she had discovered her powers along with her sisters. There was a time when the three of them had a father like figure in their life, a farmer named Bromm who found them in the forest and took them into his home having no daughters of his own.

For ten years he had fed and clothed them and taught them all that he knew of handling weapons of all shapes and sizes as he was not prejudice, farming, killing someone swiftly, reading and writing and many, many more subjects than that. For ten long years the three VeilSpoken had even given protection and had grown attached to the man who raised them.

This happy state of affairs continued until the war came to their small village and Bromm was forcefully conscripted into the army, urging the sisters to leave the farm and run from the king as the war was against magic users and their powers would be seen as just that by ignorant fools. Vanessa, the eldest of the sisters lead them and kept them alive throughout the years to come.

Eventually, when the war was ended with a peace treaty that both sides had sorely needed, the sisters announced themselves, starting small with the lower classes and working their way up the social tiers until they were once visited by the king in the dead of night. After that, they became a known outlet for guilt and secrets, as long as you could pay.

Allysa awoke with a start, brandishing the knife she slept with threateningly until she saw it was simply Vasilli
"Oh it's you Vasilli, sorry" she said before rubbing her eyes and hauling herself out of the bed to her friends command "ok, let's go down" she said before yawning and walking down the steps and into the dingy room below that served as both a bar and a food place.

Smacking her lips together to get the morning taste out of her mouth, she laid down a number of copper and silver pieces before sitting down and rapping on the woodwork and clearing her throat of dust "half a pint of ale please Barman, oh and I'll take two breakfasts as well thank you" Allysa said in a smooth and tired tone of voice as she added some more coins to the small pile.

Allysa watched with a dull expression on her veiled fave as the small pile of proffered coins were taken and the Barman set about fulfilling their requests and Allysa could see that he wasn't making any hurry about it, this was going to take a while. Fortunately the Barman had the presence of mind to give Allysa her ale first and avoid conflict over her impatience.

Leading Vasilli over to the table where Twilight was sitting, Allysa sat down and pulled out a chair for her companion.
"You've never drunk ale before? Never drunk at all? Not one sip? Wow, I can say that you're purer than me" Allysa asked incredulously before taking a deep draft of the drink that she intended to make last as long as possible.

"At least you Twilight have tasted alcohol" Allysa reassured herself before turning back to Vasilli "it's bitter, tastes like fermented horse piss although I highly doubt that you've tasted that but it takes the sharp edges off of the world and sits well in the throat" Allysa described, making sure to compliment the drink in a tone loud enough for the Barman to hear.

The two doors at the front of the inn were slammed open as a man and his two compatriots swaggered into the room, instantly seeing Vasilli and stalking over, standing close to the table.
"Hallo moi lovelies, what 'ave we 'ere?" The first man asked, his smile sickly and unkind as he put his hands on the table near Vasilli. When the second man put a hand on Vasilli's chair, everything stopped.

Motion exploded as Allysa leapt from her chair, pulling her dagger from the sheath on her leg and slamming the man into the wall, her blade at his throat.
"Now, you're probably thinking 'she's just a girl, she doesn't have the guts to kill' and oh how wrong could you be. Ive judged many of your type, and it would be so easy just to slit your throat right here" Allysa said in a smooth and menacing voice.

"Unfortunately, as much as I'd like to splay your neck open in this place, in this time, I'm not sure my friends would like me too do that as it would spoil their day and mess their clothes with bloodstains" Allysa continued, a thin line of blood appearing on the blade of her dagger as she pressed harder and then let him go, shoving him out of the inn and glaring at his companions.

After they were gone, Allysa wiped her dagger and sheathed it, sitting down and taking another sip as if the entire episode had not transpired.

Anna yawned, slowly waking up. She was tired, but she knew she had to get up. After getting up and changing into a new set of clothes, she grabbed her backpack and went downstairs, going over to the counter and ordering some breakfast.

Anna looked at the rabbit man who had bumped into her. "Er, it's no problem. Anyone can make the mistake." She then proceeded to eat her breakfast.

She looks back at him. She did need someone to help her if she got stuck in a bad situation... And two heads are better than one... "Hmm... Depends... How are your combat skills, and what would you say is your best quality?"
