"Oh you are Fae? Interesting. I know some magic can cause dramatic changes, don't you have the power to shrink yourself back down?" More than happy if she wanted to sit with him, otherwise he'd stay turned in his chair as he focuses on her to avoid being rude. Though her next words and question threw him for a loop, looking conflicted and lost on how to respond as he leans back in his chair, both hands on the cup as he taps a finger against its surface.

"Oh well uhh that's a bit delicate to just talk about, especially in a crowded place... I'd also not like to have word of it spreading around if you get what I mean? Not saying you would but too many ears listening in. But I can at least say, I'm a dragon and wyvern, a weird hybrid blend between the two." Chuckling and removing one of his hands to tap his cheek with a pair of fingers as he continues. "Now for you. Are you from the Faeworld or were you born in a forest that's populated with Fae? And yes I know of the Faeworld, I met a lad who was fae raised and had the power to cross the boundary to reach it."

"Oh they can be, it really depends on the memory." Sighing and leaning back in his spot as he placed his cane against the counter, though he wasn't magical himself he could indeed feel the magic radiating from both the gloves and the aura from the man speaking to him. Though he had to admit it didn't feel the same as one of the creatures from before and relaxed his posture as he smiles and listens to their introductions. Ghiar and Anya. Ghiar was certainly a unique name he may have only heard once before while Anya wasn't common but not as unusual as Ghiar.

He'd almost lost himself in thought as the man finished up, chuckling as he leans back forward to an upright position and offers the chairs nearby. Though it was around the moment when Ghiar was setting to excuse himself as Vendril nodded and bowed his head for a moment. "Fair is fair, pleasure meeting you. I'll be here or around if you need me or just wanna chit chat." Watching the man excuse himself before turning his attention to the fae girl as he smiles. "You are welcome to stay if you want, but if you wanna go with your friend I understand. Company is hard to garner here at times. But I must ask as to not just assume... are you a fae child or an actual fae? It's been so long since I've seen any of them."

@Katakuri

I was confused when your post stated that they felt Vendril wasn't happy with company, but I see my grammar mistake and I'll take responsibility for that

With Dorian heading off Vendril seemed to think on the matter, placing the glass on the counter as he appeared visibly in deep thought both in posture and appearance. Though as he had to admit he didn’t think he had it in him to talk about it, for some reason it felt like Dorian either knew already or that he was just easy to talk to. Though for the future he has to be careful about letting slip anything about his life.

Speaking of which he wasn’t expecting company so soon, his eyes shifting in the direction of the individual speaking to him. Raising an eyebrow at their appearance, they certainly were different given their pigment of skin.. In fact he was curious if they were a phantom or sorts but he knew better than to ask. But he wouldn’t be rude if one speaks to him, so he’d turn in place to face them while placing his hands in his lap as he cracks just enough of a smile. “Oh?” Looking to the individual he was with as Vendril chuckles for just a moment before continuing. “I’m quite fine but thank you, just reliving memories of the past. Nothing to worry about.”

Holding up his tea to the pair as a toasting like show before taking a sip himself, it was an interesting pair to be sure. The girl seemed rather young but he sensed there was something else there, besides that her looks gave away that she at least was fae raised if not born. Placing his tea on the counter as his eyes glance between the two. “Curious pairing. Anyway, formalities first, my name is Vendril, Sir Vendril. And your names are?”

"That is somewhat true, we always have the power to change our lives, but some things can't change no matter how hard we try." Watching him pull out the shot glasses, then shortly after the liquid as Vendril sighs softly. He wasn't fond of any alcohol besides wine, but he was willing to make an exception here.

With that he'd take his glass, smile at the man and hold his hand forward to allow the chink between the glasses, this was a form of both respect and tradition Vendril would never forgo. Bringing the glass to his lips and downing the substance as he flinches and stiffens, unlike Dorian it wouldn't settle well for Vendril. Coughing several times as he gently smacks his fist against the counter, though after a moment he'd groan and blink to regain his senses as he looks at the glass. "Not trying to kill me are ya?"

An effort to joke really, his voice gave that much away as he chuckles and places the shot glass back on the counter. His elbow on it to support him as he rested his head on his hand. "I remember it all so well... I remember the kingdom I lived in when I was younger, I wasn't all that grand or anything even if I was of Copper Dragonkin. I did want more and I worked towards it, it was within my reach..." Using his other hand as he stares off to the side at nothing, just lost in his story. Though his smile faded as he continues and reeled his hand back. "That changed however when the War came to my world, they took me and many other dragonkin and turned us into living weapons..."

Leaning up and using his arms to support himself as he stared at something above Dorian as he continued. "I was a lab rat during it all, my wings ripped off, they grafted new ones into my arms! They manipulated my very blood..." It seemed painful for him to continue along that line of thought as he slumped back into his arm holding him up on the counter.

Now this took a turn Vendril was not expecting, he'd listen to the words as rubs his chin. He couldn't deny it was ominous and now it's come to be apparent that the tavern had its own mind. This wasn't something he wasn't accustomed to with everything he's been through, yet it adds onto the notes he was taking that he would have to step lightly and carefully. Though towards the end of Dorian's words he'd crack a slight smile as he nods.

"I understand and I won't cause trouble unless it comes knocking, but you must understand my paranoia..." His eyes glancing towards the crowds before looking back at the man and shrugging. "I've been in two wars that lasted far too long, I made enemies I didn't want to make.” Though afterwards a slight smile broke on his face as he placed his tea on the countertop. His hand settled itself next to the cup as his fingers gently tapped against the material. “Not all bad though, even if I’m not the same being I once was, I like how things turned out for myself.”

A good chuckle radiated from the man as Dorian suggested pay, waving it away as he smiles at the man. "Please, I don't need compensation. Think of it as just a show of good faith." His smile breaking however as he sighs and looks at the counter as his finger roams along it's top, shifting in place and looking uncomfortable in a way at the thought of maybe needing to bring up certain topics. However he wouldn't leave the man in the dark as he speaks. "There was a gentleman from before, blanketed in light and he took another patron away from this place. I just wanted to know who they were? Their affiliation and such, he reminded me of something in my past and I'd rather feel better knowing I'm not gonna have issues staying here is all."

@Dark Light
Unknowing of the extent of what he was doing, but at least had the idea that the man was busy so he expected to wait a bit. Surprise hitting him for a moment before smiling as he leans forward on the counter. "Sorry for being a bother, I just was curious about that being that showed up earlier. Reminded me of somethin and I was just wanting to ask." Seeming chipper as usual yet there was a hint of something else behind his eyes, as if he was struggling with something. Besides that, before Dorian could reply he also added on as he straightens up. "And if you need help I'd be happy to assist, seeing as you now have a full house!"
