The phoenix had seen the male approaching long before he had seen her sitting on the roof of the tavern, before he had registered that the fire could bring down the entirety of the small pocket dimension that they sat in now. The least expected action of his was the one he had taken, making an attempt to climb up onto the roof before sliding back again, ultimately falling off of the edge. Clearly no rogue, nor a wood elf, given his balance. With a single swift movement, she leaned forward, heels gripping the slanted roof, as she reached out and caught the mans arm with the flaming hand. Her arm was no warm, not did the fire catch, as she lifted him up with unlikely strength and let go as soon as he was back on the roof.

"Shouldn't climb if you can't balance." Was all she said, her unwelcoming demeanor showing as it always had. She wasn't much of a talker, not with strangers at the very least, though if someone could get her to open up there would be countless stories she could tell, about all the places she'd been and the wars she fought. The Hero's that she had drank with, unaware that she was there when they were born. She'd spoken with gods, hunted Hydras.

Ayeka could tell that Dorian did not to be bother at the moment, she continues walking back to the bar. She notices Doorman wonder off some where within the tavern. She puts the book down on the bar table and pours Tic a stif drink to get him out of his shock state. She takes a long sip from her own drink to calm down as well.

Koru could help but chuckle at the ridicule as he was lifted easily back onto the roof, it was true he was never much one for balance despite his racial traits. Her unnatural strength caught him by surprise, he'd heard of people like this however he'd never heard it go hand in hand with magical flames let alone ones that behaved as strangely as her's did. Fire was fire though and her reaction to his entrance only gave him more reason to stick around, not to mention he new an interesting person when he saw one, and it was not everyday someone like this showed up.

The sorceress's tone would have been all Koru needed to know how much of an uphill battle this was going to be, carefully he lowered himself to where she had been sitting. He had to catch himself more than once on his way down, but got there without too much difficulty.

"I suppose you're right" patting the shingles where she once sat "I'm in no hurry to be reintroduced to the ground, would you sit with me for a while?"

[Inside]
Unable to register that he had been moved Tic took a long swig from a drink that was now in his hand. Looking around for any kind of familiarity, only two sources came into view. There was a plain man across the tavern who had show up around the time everything started to get out of his depth, and the bartender seemed to be on top of what's going on in the bar.

"What ya reading?" he blurted with less tact than usual.

Waiting for a response from the elf Tic turned his attention back to the bar slowly gaining some of his sense back. The pain man seemed to be waiting for… something… well better to be that something, maybe he was waiting on some runners who’d been a no show. He could use the work to hold him over until the last job blew over. He shuddered remembering his predicament, if he could even get back.

Scribbling a messy note on a napkin Tic wrapped it around his hand flashlight and threw it across the room to the man.

‘Need work, you hiring?’

"Well, I'm just going to go talk to Pai t." Alex said to himself. He went back upstairs looking for her, then yelled for practically the whole tavern to hear, "PAINT! WHERE ARE YOU!"

@Overlord24
Hearing her name being called paint appears behind him and tackles him playfully "yeeesss?" She asks with a grin

@PaintLynn
"I was bored." Alex says dislodging Paint from him. "How're you?"

Grinning Paint got up off of him "so you admit that you find me entertaining!" She says blushing ever so slightly.

@PaintLynn
"Yes, you are a very interesting person Lady Paint." He says, he was still in his, 'Young Lord of O'Khasis' form.

Grinning proudly "then let's go find someone interesting to bother!"@Overlord24

@Overlord24@Pineappletumble

Even with the new notice of the clue her mind had suddenly went blank. When she awoke she was outside the tavern. Unknownst of how she got there or even what day it was. Her last memory of knocking on some door.

Unsteadly getting up from the ground near a tree. Her clothing dirty and a new wound across her left arm. She would stumble back towards the tavern. Stunpted on how she could have gotten there.

@PaintLynn
"Then let us set off." Alex says following Paint.

@Overlord24
"Are you good at climbing? Cuz I sure am!"

@PaintLynn
"I wouldn't survive with my brothers if I wasn't good at climbing." Alex says smiling.

@Overlord24
"Yeah?" Trying to show up Paint runs and jumps up the tree, and grabbing a branch she swings up to a higher branch.

@PaintLynn
Alex jumps up and grabs a branch and follows Paint.

@Overlord24
Climbs to the tippy top

@PaintLynn
Avary climbs up to the top with her.

The black haired woman shrugged her shoulders, settling back into where she had been sitting before, hands beneath her butt this time. "Not my place to tell you what to do." She responded to his question, lifting a hand to brush her bangs behind her ear before tucking it away again. There were no flames, no shows of strength, nothing but what appeared to be a human girl looking up at the sky. As she stared a cloud covered the moon, dark and heavy, though she didn't move or make note of possible rain. She just stared, silent in the night.

She had a slim nose, delicate jaw line, but hard eyes. As endless in possibility as the sky, and yet, just as big a mystery. She paid no mind to the stranger beside her, letting him watch her as much as he liked as long as he didn't bother her. If he felt the need to talk she would listen, since mortal creatures often felt as if they needed to socialize. It kept them healthy and sane, which she preferred over the alternative.

@PaintLynn
Avary sits next to Paint on the top of the tree, looking at the horizon. "It's a beautiful view, isn't it?"
