The bar Myra walked into was dirty, stank of sweat and the filth of drunkards. The floorboards creaked, and Myra swore she saw a rat climb into one of the tankards.
Pretty much your average tavern.
Myra sat down on a stool next to an almost opague window, hood drawn up close to her face. Her sharp ears were tuned to conversation about any major events that might of occured.

Aleth flinched as another man starts harassing her, she thought everything would a be a little easier after getting away from her parents, but she was sadly mistaken. Had she finally reached the age when guys begin to pick on her? As the man continued to flirt, she was becoming more and more agitated. She began to ball her hands into a fist until the knuckles turned completely white against her skin. Listening to one more flirt, she landed a sucker punch straight into the guys face, and quickly retreated into the crowd; before finally deciding to sit near a suspiciously small person.

Myra felt something flop down beside her and turned around, fully expecting to have to ward off a lonely man, she was surprised to see her companion was a girl. This was strange, as the tavern was traditionally a male retreat and weakness.
Myra muffled her voice as she spoke. "Can I get you a drink?"
Myra needed information, and a girl with a sword in a tavern was likely to give it to her.

Aleth turned to the source of the voice. What it an old man or woman? Maybe it was a kid playing around with her. As for a drink, she knew better to have alcohol, it surprised herself when she realized that she couldn't take much. Her parents were total drunkards, but she wasn't.
"Ah its alright." "I can't handle my alcohol well." "My names Aleth by the way, and you are?"

Myra didn't routinely give her name away to total strangers, so she ignored the question.
"How about a water? Bartender! Two waters, please."
Great, the one time she met someone who didn't drink.

Aleth sighed, clearly someone that doesn’t want to be involved with her. Perhaps it was for the best since she always seemed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time or was it that it was her own fault that she gets into so much trouble? No that can’t be true, she was just plain unlucky with just about everything. As the water arrived, she realized how long she had actually tasted some clean glass (don’t ask). Gulping down the water, she let out a satisfying gasp, before lightly putting down her cup.
“Thanks for the drink, needed it, so what can I help you with, friend?” the friend part simply slipped out, all her friends were gone at the moment. This stranger didn’t seem so hostile at all, unlike a few questionable guys in here.

Myra didn't even touch her water.
"Now what makes you think I want something from you. I have been.... out of the loop for a while, and I was just wondering if you have any news for me."

Truthfully she didn't know whats going on herself, except that something big is happening.
"Truthfully, I've been busy trying to get away from my parents, to worry about current events." "Actually, I'm curious...I'm sure I can get a few people to spill it, if you'd like?"
Her plan was to beat up someone to get the answer out of them. Usually people didn't tell her anything without force. Wow, she had problems...

Myra smiled.
"Thanks... I'd like that."
Myra didn't care how the strange girl got the info, she just wanted to know what was happening.
