7 7-Calm Before the Storm
Deucalion looked at the time and he still had a few minutes before he could return to the armor so he decided to head for the Adventures guild.
The west side of Ironvale was abit different than the east for one thing there where hardly any drugs or people loitering on the streets at night. So he was able to find the adventures guild relatively easy, The building was a real upscale type and the doors where quiet lavish "These people must be making a lot of money"he thought as he strolled up to the doors of the building, the insides where littered with people and players and sum players who he had seen in Galian's bar where conversing with out a care in the world almost everyone was laughing of enjoying there time.
"Hey Hey" Brown haired female waved him over as she saw deucalion looking around and observing, so he walked over trying to avoid the stares and whispers that the room is giving off.
"What can we do for you today sir" Deucalion stared at her for a moment and then pointed at the registration forms laying on the counter, the girl was a bit taken back because she was expecting him to respond but got no words. Before stepping foot in the adventures guild something had been rubbing him wrong about the way it came off to him in the information he was getting so he came up with a little scheme, he would play dumb or for a better word mute he found when people think they have the one up on you they tend to let there guards down. So she tilted her head as his response then handed him the form..
The form was simple enough it only need a few things such as your Name your Level and gene if you activated it or the role you which to play as if you where to party with anyone from the guild and there 50 copper entrance fee. So he filled it out and handed it in and after a few minutes the brown head girl came back with a badge. The badge is wooden and carved in the shaped of a shield and with a mining cave and forest caved into it.
"Here you go" she spoke in a slight disturbed tone, Deucalion just looked at her as he was laughing in his head,He nodded and took it and a notification popped up.

The paper dissolved in his hand and he headed for the door.

After checking what else he need to do collected himself and began his walk back to the armor,The wind became cold as if it had knifes in it cutting deep to his skin.
"I really need a place of my own or at least a room" he spoke out loud as he headed back to the armor store.
"Hey Mr I'm back!!"
"Come on in the back!!"
The two shouted back and forth and Deucalion headed into the back room, "Stop looking around and come over here" the dwarf commanded
He strolled over casual like at the command he was given and peer down seeing
A Medium set of armor, it was a long coat which looked as if the tail end could reach the back of his calf it had metal chain mail woven in and out of it's shoulder and arms , the chest was padded with a thick layer of leather and reinforced with chain mail which would make it hard to get stab in the chest, the pants are light but woven with a thickening substance, Deucalion stepped closer picking it up and saw that in the front of it where the fangs draped down where there would be a zipper and around it bottom hanged a few more fangs as well.
Deucalion pause astonish at the extremely basic work the dwarf had done but contained his excitement. The Dwarf looked up raising his eye brown but then spoke
"It's not done he pointed at the down seeing a oddly shaped straps with to mid size holes banded to them.
"Those are for your axes, I seen you had no where to put them so there you go, you can strap them around your waist or on your chest ,your choice" the dwarf said while walking over to a book self.

A short burst of light flashed as Deucalion hit equipped and as it dissipated he was dressed in the grey battle coat and pants and shoes. He placed both his axes down on the bench he was standing next to and picked up both the straps running his fingers up and down the grooves and the stitching tugging on the loops where he would have to put his axes and a smirk crept up onto his face. He slipped one around his waist and placed his axe in it which hung in the back and he took off the coat and placed the other between his left shoulder and his neck and equipped back his coat.
"So kid my payment for the work" Deucalion looked over and was about to speak but the dwarf spotted him
"Do me a favor and you can have everything for free, Bring this letter to my sister in the Capital Balltail"
Deucalion was never one to take a free hand out so he was just going to pay him and get it over with so he pause and looked at him.
"Why, why should I" The dwarf wasn't expecting that so he was a bit stunned
"Do it as a Curtis to me your helpful benefactor Ralph Haa haaa" Deucalion eyebrow jumped while looking at him "More like pain in the ass" He thought while looking at the notification floating to his right.

"Do you Accept"
〚Y/N〛
〚Yes〛
Alright Ralph i'll get it done deucalion took his leave and found himself standing at the middle of town looking both ways trying to figure out which way he wanted to go, he looked east and stared at the gate and at the Abyss Wolf could still be lurking in the wood and then he looked west at the mountains and the treasure he could potentially get plus he was on a time limit anyway so he made no more hesitations and headed for the west gate and started running as he went through the gates. The night air bothered him no more he was more or less padded and protected form it. It took him a close to reach the entrance of the mountains pass and by that time the moon was at it's fullest which lit the path in a deep blue glow which created a litter of shadows all up and down the path. Something felt off as he took his first steps on the path the air shifted a hint of blood came down the hill it wasn't a smell unknown to him, blood had stuck to every memory he had growing up from frost bitten fingers bleeds and snowy fights and dead bodies blood was all was there so he unconsciously raised his guard and slipped into the shadows and began his track up the mountain pass slow, Listening tot he passing winds and the crackle of the rocks and scouring creatures and the sounds they produced as he made sure when he moved from shadow to shadow his shadow was always facing behind him.
