Thoren pushed himself back in his stool as he slid his empty glass across the counter. "Another scotch, barkeep," he shouted among the rabble of the surrounding people. The bartender shot him a glare as he filled his glass with clear-brown dry scotch and almost threw it back down the bench, spilling some of the contents.
Thoren chuckled, slightly tipsy. 'It seems the whole town likes to take advantage of the tavern's happy hour,' he thought to himself lazily, 'and the barkeep knows it.' Thoren gazed absently around the room, taking in the vast amount of citizens who came each week on this hour to relax. 'Well, at least this city seems to be able to take care of itself, unlike a large amount of others I have visited, and helped,' Thoren thought to himself as he took another sip of his drink and sat back, smiling.

Relm walked into the bar, glancing around at the vast ammount of people. Today she was dressed as a girl, her short hair pulled up into a messy ponytail and out of her face. She wore a simple skirt and t-shirt, she really didn't want to draw too much attention to herself.
She pushed past a few drunken men and walked up to the bar. "Could i have a coke please?" she asked the bartender. She glanced around when she knew that he had heard her. She had been in many Bars before, but never in such a big city. She drummed her fingers quietly on the bar, although it was impossible to hear over the voices of the other people in the Tavern.
As soon as she had her coke she moved down the bar a bit, away from some of the more drunken slobs; looking slightly worried.

Thoren finished another glass and was staring absent-mindedly at his glass when he noticed a worried-looking girl sit a few stools away from him. 'She can't possibly be any older than 18, that girl,' Thoren thought to himself, 'What's she doing in a place like this?'
He moved behind her and grabbed her shoulder softly, turning her towards him. "You look troubled. Need any help?"

Relm was shocked to feel a hand on her shoulder, and had to refrain herself from hitting the person who was to blame for the shock. She looked up at the man that stood infront of her, slightly confused by his question. 'I didn't look too worried did i?Oooooh.....i have to work on that one...especially in public places...' she thought, resisting the urge to groan at her stupidity."No...I am fine.." Relm said, flashing a smile at the man. "It's just a little more crowded than any bar i have been in before..." she added; shrugging.
She took a sip of her drink, "I can look after myself if needed...." she said. 'although i doubt i could take on this guy without my sword..which reminds me..i need to start taking it with me where ever i go...' she thought, absent mindedly taking another sip of her coke.

"But surely a young, unarmed girl like yourself doesn't do this often?" remarked Thoren, shocked, "The bar folk tend to be a rowdy bunch, and this city's crowd in particular seem to be quite rough." He turned and instinctively held his arms out in front of him as a man was shoved voilently against him (Thoren was not a dodging type, and preferred to take heavy blows if it gave him an advantage in a fight).
'Bloody feuds,' Thoren thought to himself, and turned back to the girl. "I hope you can take care of yourself, because a teenage girl coming in here is not a smart idea. I'm Thoren, by the way," Thoren held out his hand as he spoke, "Not a common name, but you may have heard of me without knowing it. Though I am not well known in these parts of the land."

Relm shook Thoren's Hand and nodded. "My name is Relm. Probably not known by anyone.." she said,laughing quietly. "You should not assume peoples age on appearance, even though i am only 16..." she said, shrugging. "i have spent the past few years learning how to control a sword perfectly, and i've also learned a bit of hand to hand martial arts..." she added. 'He really doesn't need to know i've never actually hurt anyone with a sword...' she thought, causing herself to smile slightly. "This city may be a bit rough, but i'm sure it can't be anyway worse than the many times i have been in bars before..." she said, smiling as she took another sip of her coke.
