"Thank you."
He stepped through the door, taking in any and all details of his surroundings.

What he saw though, was truly fascinating. He seemed to be in an massive area that was surrounded by natural cave walls, but the sky was so very visible and shined down on the town. Gravel paths went all over the place as they branched down the streets of the town. The homes were older in design, and were brown from the wood they were made with. People, all in their red robes, bustled about and talked with one another. The houses were spread apart well enough to make the place not seem as dense though. Off the gravel was brilliantly green grass that seemed to be cut short. Can saw men and women training with their bows on a range that had dummies and hay targets, as well as men and women training with their blades. All of them were VERY good. Bulls eyes seemed common and the swordsmanship was fast. The place was really quite gorgeous. "So. What do you think?" Ben asked. "Better without the bag on your head?"
-
He chuckled slightly, looking impressed. "Aye, that it is." His gaze lingered on the weapons training as ge focused in on something familiar. "Will I be learning to use a sword too?" He asked.
-
"That you will! That you will. Same goes for the bow as well." Ben told him as they walked across the path. Suddenly, a girl ran up to them. She was short, maybe 4'10. She looked young as well. She had a pale face, and long black curly hair. Her cheek bones were in the centre of her face and were slightly pronounced, and she also had a small chin, which gave her face an adorable round look to it. She had large brown eyes and a small nose. "BENNY!" She let out. "Is this the new person? Is it? Is it?!" She asked excitedly. "Yes Bella, yes it is. Now relax. You wouldn't want to make our friend uncomfortable. "Oh come ON. I wouldn't do that! Never! Nu-uh!" Bella said as she shook her head. She looked up at Cannon. "Hiya! I'm Bella! Who are you?" She asked him.
-
Cannon smiled at Bella. "I'm Canderouse. It's nice to meet you." He told her, slightly reminded of his own daughter by her.
-
"Candoroose?" She asked. She mispronounced Can's alias and she tilted her head as she asked him.
-
He chuckled slightly. "Can-der-ouse." He pronounced it slowly for her, unable to help a smile from forming on his face.
-
"OOOOOOOH." She said as she nodded her head in understanding. "Got it! Anyways! Let's go!" She said. "What?" Ben asked. "Bella, I'll be taking Canderouse around." "Nope! Now I am!" She told him innocently. "What? Bella, you can't just-" "I can't hear you over the sound of me showing Candarooster around!" Bella said as she grabbed Can's hand and began to walk. Ben looked at Can and shrugged. "Best of luck Canderouse...." he said to him.
-
He cast a helpless glance at Ben as he was dragged off. "Um, alright? Where do we go first?" He asked Belle.
-
"You and I are gunna go to the clothing store! OH ITS JUST ONE OF MY FAVOURITES!" Bella let Can know. "They have cloaks and....cloaks and...more cloaks!"
-
He chuckled, following her closely. "Sounds like fun."
-
"Actually...in all honesty...the place just smells nice. Like...I don't know. The new cloak smell! Ya! That's it!" She rambled as she walked Cannon down a different path and onto what looked to be a market street. People were walking around and smiled at Can and Bella as they passed. Eventually they came up to a small wooden house that had a sign saying "Cloak and Dagger!" On the front. "Here we are!!!" Bella said. "C'mon, C'mon, C'mon let's go!" She let out as she ran up the steps to the building and continued to drag Can's arm behind her.

Edited by Inflatablepants: 4/22/2017 8:02:29 PMShe opened the door which allowed him to enter inside. Inside the quaint store there was a long table in he enter with many different fabrics folded on top of it. On the right side of the room were purple cloaks, similar to that of what some people wore around town. On the left were maroon coloured cloaks. A middle aged woman looked up from the large counter at the end of the store. "My, Bella dear! Who is this?" She asked. "This is CannedRice, Marzia!" Bella declared to the woman. "My! What a name!" Mariza said with a light laugh as she looked to Can. "Well? Don't be shy! Come on in!"
-
Cannon chuckled, looking around the shop. He really had no idea what he was supposed to buy. "Um, thank you?"
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 4/22/2017 8:09:08 PM"Uh-huh. First cloak is that right?" Marzia asked as she walked around the check out. "It's fine. Especially for a newcomer! Those are rare! Though, surprisingly common as of late..." Bella seemed to be touching all of the clothes and fabrics in the store as Marzia approached Can.
-
"Is there some sort of uniform?" Cannon asked, having noted most of the people around wore red.
-
"Well, red is everyone's favourite. But we won't judge if you pick a different colour!" Marzia told him. "We have red, blue, black. And purple! Purple would look good on you!" She told Can. "Though, maroon would look good as well...hmmmm."
-
Edited by Cannon011: 4/22/2017 8:26:13 PM"Hmmmm..." He liked the purple one, but red would allow him to blend in easier. Then again, a dark color would mean he could hide if he had to escape. "Do you have any green? I like that color." He said.
-
"NO! ABSOLUTELY NOT!" Marzia suddenly bursted out angrily. She then quickly composed herself. Bella skipped over. "Green is what the Grenwalds wear, silly!" Bella told Can. "You can't wear what they wear!"
-
"Oh, sorry." He said, rubbing the back of his head sheepishly. "I'm new around here..."
-
"Yes, yes. It's fine. At least you have the decency to wear a cloak..." Marzia said as she looked at some of the red cloaks. It's possible that she was referring to Diana.
-
Edited by Cannon011: 4/22/2017 9:25:03 PMCannon walked over to some other cloaks, looking at them. "I guess I'll take a red one. They are rather pretty."
-
"Ah! Yes, you said so before. Now let's see...ah! Yes!" She celebrated as she took a red cloak off of the rack. She handed it to Can. "Hey, Marzy." Bella asked. "Where you talking about Diana?" "Yes, yes I was." Marzia said to Bella. "Though, its rude to gossip..."
-
"Who is she?" Cannon asked. "She seemed a bit... Different than everyone else. And I don't just mean the lack of a cloak. Is she from around here?"
-
"Oh! No!" Marzia said. She seemed excited about the push of the topic. "She came by a month ago as if from no where! Then, she began to well...see, Ulfric. If you know what I mean. The death of Wulfric, his brother, has weighed heavily on us, especially him. It's very possible that he's looking to her as a form of escape..." "How would you find escape in someone else?" Bella asked innocently. "Well, umm. Oh, sorry Bella, I really shouldn't talk about Ulfric like that. Anyways, let's get that cloak on shall we?" She asked Can.
