He shrugged as she talked about bartering cheap. Ale's a quick way to loosen tongues. But I'm probably not supposed to say that part out loud, he said, grunting a snicker to himself as he ate up the stew, taking a few sips of his own ale as well. True to his word, he slipped a few copper...

Tereth looked over in the direction of the guard as he tore down one of the notices, grumbling and shoving the paper aside. It struck him as odd that someone would be so against people putting up a notice that they were stating it should be outlawed. Surely an overreaction, no? His eyes darted...

The sun was setting and Tereth stepped into the inn and tavern to find that it was already well beyond bustling with people. The air smelled of sweat, stale ale, and stale smoke, but it was pretty much what he had come to expect from a place like this. More importantly, it was affordable for a...

Tereth cast his eyes around the group, and what a group they were. From the looks of it at least a couple of the others were monster hunters as well, and that meant he was in good company. While he may not have known them personally, their reputations as professionals was enough for him. Plus...

Tereth hadn't been in Elbion long, but his attempts to find work had pointed him toward Elbion College where it was said they had been looking for a Hunter. His arrival at the College had promptly pointed him instead toward a "small expedition headed for the gates" as one of the clerks had put...

Tereth had followed the destruction left in the wake of the dragon without difficulty, and a special kind of fear began to set in when he realized that it was on a direct path for Elbion. When he'd arrived, he was floored. The city had been practically ripped apart. Chunks floated above the...

Tereth listened as she told the story of what had happened. He had seen glimpses of the conflict from a distance, but trying to kill a healer because someone was beyond saving? He knew healers, and they were typically good people. They had patched him up time and again after his hunts, and...

What happened? he asked. He couldn't help being a bit of a curious snoop, after all. He nodded silently as she mentioned that she couldn't walk. He glanced down at he leg, shriveled and gnarled by whatever had done this and he wasn't surprised. He pulled the healing elixir from his pouch and...

What!? No! he said in response to her inquiry about killing children and harpists. I don't kill children or harpists. Just, nevermind, he said, shaking his head, deciding to ignore the comment before immediately changing his mind. Harpies are flying creatures that kill and eat people. They...

Tereth grunted as she told him that he was a ray of sunshine. He'd been told similar things many times before. He wasn't an overly inviting or warm person, and his life had been wrought with difficulties. He wanted to ask her what she meant by "sky elves" but didn't want to appear ignorant or...

Tereth pulled back the reins of his horse and slowed as the violence continued to unfold. He was about to pull the fae dust from his satchel to speed the horse when he noted something. Besides the large man flying off into the distance, people began to leave. Left in their wake was a single...

The darkness of the forest wasn't decreasing and he knew that despite needing to move with speed, they had time before the creature would be able to loop back around to the village. Combined with the fact that he was a bit drained from his injury, and he was fine with keeping a slower pace...

Tereth still wasn't happy, but she had a point that the creature wasn't going to kill in the forest and if they were in the town they could deal with it there. Fault or not, he still killed, he said gruffly, though it was partially an act. He felt some pity for the victims of lycanthropy. It...

Tereth was already climbing onto his horse, looking to the horizon where both Celestia and the dragon had disappeared to. He listened to the shadowman's words, his voice already becoming a strain on the monster hunter's ears. He looked over to the soldiers gathered in the distance. He could...

Be careful, he said as Celestia began to launch after the dragon. He didn't like it and he would have liked to follow her, but he wasn't a flyer and his horse could only move so quickly. Tereth didn't know what the... person before him was, but it seemed to be an ally. He could worry about it...
