Ryhe set his chin on the table. He stared intently at the dark liquid in the musky glass. Dare I trust it... he huffed, Why the hell not... He picked up the glass and down the whole thing in one gulp. He wiped the beer from his beard and gave a 'guuh' sigh as it fumbled it's way down him throat.
How many years has it been?
"389...." Ryhe grumbled to himself. Marriage. It's been that long since Ryhe had a golden band of happiness around his thick finger. Every wife died of old age or a raid of an enemy bandit gang. Now that he was nearly to his 're-aging age' and loneliness gripped him once more. Now that he was in a new land... it was possible.
HehhehehehHAHAhAH! the inner voice mocked him.
"Shut up..." he grumbled childishly and buried his face into his crossed arms. Maybe it was a good thing he'll die lonely... mebbe.

Raelyn came in in a huff she plopped down beside Rhye at the bar and said, "Gemme a beer."
The bartender laughed and said, "Are ye sure you can handle it lil lady?"
Raelyn turned red in the face she was so mad. "I said give me a Damn beer!" she crossed her arms and watched the bartneder gawk at her.

Ryhe looked up and blinked at her as she yelled at the tender. He looked her over and his trademark smile stared, then he let it go. He was 'no good' to women when drunk. He looked at the tender, "Another dwarven ale, please." he huffed to him.

"and you better get my beer along with it!" yelled Rae, seating herself. "thirsty are we?" she asked Rhye, she then held out her small hand for him to shake, "I'm Rae."

Ryhe looked at her hand, then to her eyes with a smile, "Ryhe." He took her hand gently with his thick one and shook it.

"Nice to meet you. If you don't mind my nosiness, what's a handsome devil like you doing in a place like this. WHERE BARTENDERS DON'T GIVE YOU BEER!" she said loud enough for the bartender to hear her.

Ryhe smiled a bit, liking her already, " Downin' troubles. You?" he nodded a thanks to a bar helper that gave them their drinks.

"escaping reality. How come, guys never know how to treat a girl like a person and not like a priss or a piece of ass?" she said referring to the scene she had just escaped, where some guy had hot her on the ass and she had smacked him in the face leaving a red hadprint on his face.

Ryhe took a gulp of his ale, "The way I sees it, nobody's got any class anymore. It's all action and no chivalry." he took another drink.

" I know, I can remeber when a man would've gotten shot for such behavior towards a woman. But I have been treated worse. All the years I have lived have lead to my lonliness now, and my uncared for wisdom." said Rae, chugging her whole bear, she didn't care if it's unlady like but she was thirsty.

Ryhe sighed, "Loneliness is contagious, I see..." he sighed and downed the rest of his. "They say they should envy the evles... I say evny the mortals."

"As do I. But I do not envy their lust nor their greed. But if I had such a short life I guess I too would be greed filled." said Rae playing with the beer mug.

"Touche." Ryhe chuckled. He looked to Rae with a smile. He liked her, she was unlike many of the women he met. Usually it's 'Hi, how are you? Drink? My place or yours?' but she felt like he did, maybe she understood.
Go for it! shouted the voice in his head.
Ryhe glared at his nose and snarled.

"yeah, I have a way of doing that." she said then she looked at him worriedly when he snarled, "Are you..Ok?" she asked gently wondering if he was chocking or gagging or something like that.

He blinked at her, "Growling at my concious." he looked at his drink, "Lived here long?"

" Umm, well not here, but everywhere. I don't stay in one place too long. It get's old." said Rae laughing gently. "What about you?"

"I was throw into this place by the Paladins of Lxn... instead of executing me, they throw me onto distant continents. I don't get why they do it, I usually find my way back... but... not from here so... here's to my new life here... may I rot in hell." he ordered a new beer silently as she talked and he lifted it, taking a sip after his little toast.

" Wow, I go where I want when I want. I have traveled the known world many times over, and have even ventured into the unknown." said Rae slyly, showing Rhye how adventurous she could be. She then turned to the bartender and said, "can I have another beer?" the bartender didnt argue this time he just poured her a beer and handed it to her.

Ryhe smiled lightly as he caught her adventuristic side, "What kind o' adventures do ya have, Miss Rea?" he hoped she wasn't offened my his shortening of her name.

Ryhe nodded lightly and downed another strong ale. He stared at it for a moment, thinking.

He looked up and smiled, "Nothing, just a bit of sillyness really. " he took another gulp and sighed.

"Well, I like a bit of silliness, so what is it?" she asked taking a sip of her beer. She wasn;t really thirsty, but felt stupid sitting in a bar without a drink.

He sighed, " Tryin' to figure out what to do with my life... that's all." he drank down the rest of his drink.
