The Phoenix In The Forest

Chapter One

Smoke rises from an old stone chimney, The smell of roasting chicken and baked breads wafted out into the surrounding woods. This little inn was a common stop for adventurers that needed a place to rest, Vines wrapped around the posts that held up the decaying roof. Dahlia Redwood  a young girl walks inside, inside the tavern was cozy, the walls were lined with spruce wood paneling that held in the warmth.  the girl has short pointed ears and a rounded face with wideish shoulders.

 Her blue eyes look around the room as she scans for who she's looking to meet, Her lightly tanned but fair skin brushes on the door frame as a tall half-orc pushed by her going outside, A small reminder not to stay in the way for long, She walks over to a corner table and sits down leaning on the table, her loose dark-green tunic bunches up under her arms uncomfortably.

 She sighs "why did I let dad buy me these silly clothes before I left?" she thinks to herself.
after a few minutes and a couple drinks later a lanky boy walks in, He earns many strange looks, He seemed used to it and walks to her table and sitting across from the curious elf "Hello Dahlia nice to meet you, I'm Tyson Acosti" he offers a little smile and holds his hand out to Dahlia. 

Dahlia shakes his hand and smiled "lovely to meet you Tyson! I think we will work together well" she leans back and orders a round of drinks.
He sits down, His soft fluffy violet hair bouncing when he moves, His caramel coloured skin catches her attention, 

She shakes her head and looks over him the rest of the way, He had what she saw, Bits of purple scales were on patches of skin around different parts of his body. He takes the beer that arrived at the table, And after tipping the barmaid he sips some of it "so is there anyone else joining us?" he asks looking over the edge of the cup.

Dahlia nods "yes an old friend of mine, he should be here soon.. I think" she looked towards the door and downed a mug of mead, Tyson chuckled "I see you like to drink fast? That could be helpful if we enter a drinking contest with a cave troll!" this comment caused her to giggle softly causing hiccups, He smiled and thought to himself "I think I'll like working with this girl" once Dahlia got the hiccups under control she coughed a bit..

Just then the door to the inn burst in and a short boy walks inside "yooo!! I'm here!" he smirked and walked over to the table, " Teagan! You're here!" Dahlia smiled and gets up and hugs the short boy, She was a few inches taller then him. Tyson watches the two, Examining the boy. He had Medium length brown hair, that fluffed all over the place in a mess and were those wolf ears in that mess? Pale skin with a couple scars, He had a rather square figure, and big brown eyes. Tyson smiles and gets up offering his hand "nice to meet you sir, I'm Tyson and your the other teammate I guess?" Teagan grabs his hand and shakes it roughly "you bet bud! I can't wait to go on an adventure with you!" he smiled.
