Again, Luca gave a small laugh. "You're a keen beast," dropping his light, careless air, the tall fox took his weight off the counter and spoke quietly. "I've come into some money.. and I'm feeling generous today. Simple enough?" He gave a wry smile, "The only thing I need from you is to let me accompany you when you leave here, as i'm not.. not well liked by the law here and I'd rather leave sooner, rather then later." With a shrug, he let his voice lift back to a normal tone. "The way I see it, you're getting the best deal I've ever offered." He winked.

The crocodile smiled in return. He couldn't help it, but for some reason he started to like the fox already. He kind of reminded Katarn-Revor of himself at times. "Well, friend, I'm sorry to tell you that this is not for me to decide." He answered, glancing back at Tibbarius who would have the final word in this.

(In comes Redstripe, If thats alright.)
A large badger with shaggy fur that was sligthly greyed from age, stood in the doorway."Can someone fix ma axe its got a few nicks and breaks from the last battle I was in..." The last part of his sentance was spoken slowly as he spotted Katarn,"You...You...I'll kill you!" Redstripe's left arm was still wounded and not strong enough to weild a weapon but he didn't care, he would kill him with his bare claws.

(You know, King, that if Redstripe attacks Katarn-Revor openly in the city, he would get arrested from the city watch.)

Tibbarius was busy attachting the sheath to his armour when the fox came it. He gave the fox a greeting nod before he continued to fix the sword sheath. Whe he was finished he removed the sword & held it in his hand. He held his arm straight & held the sword sideways. Testing the way & feel of the new weapon. He twirled it around expertly. Having plenty of time to practice when he was lost in the woods for a season. He put the sword away when the concersation turned to the fox wanting to accompany them. He knew foxes to be very devious, underhanded creatures. He was a little skepticle to say the least. However he knew he would need all the help he could get. He passed the crocodile a passing smile. "Could always use an extra hand." Just then a large badger came in. Within a minute he was ready to attack Katarn. Tibbarius waited to see what the Badger was going to say before he would respond.

(Fine.)
The crocodile turned towards the large badger and took a step backwards, raising his claw in a reassuring way. "Hold on, big fellah, I have no idea who you are or what you want from me." He answered truthfully. "I don't want any trouble, okay?"

He slowed down to a menacing walk,"Ya fergot me already? Maybe you remember killing Grisk at Salamandstron, or that you sent that creature ta kill me. I'll never forget ye, I should kill you where you stand." The rims of his eyes started turning blood red, only slightly."You are the only creature that I have seen like you, and you are the only creature I wish vengence on."

"Huh?" The crocodile blinked. "You're that mad badger from that siege?" The crocodiles eyes narrowed. "Now listen up, wise guy, all I did was doing the job I was paid for defending my life. Just like you did. So, why don't you just get over it and move along?"

"Cause I swore ta take vengence. Ave you ever ad anyone close struck down an ye just wish to take vengence? Well I'm about ta fufill my wish." He stopped in front of Katarn and cracked his claws.

The crocodile scowled. "I had no idea he was close to you and I'm sorry for your loss. But as far as I'm concerned, you're no longer my enemy. Just leave me alone."

"So your just a merc? A coward who can't decide who to fight so he lets the money chose for him...Pathetic, I can't kill you, I don't wish to dirty myself." His eyes returned to normal and he sighed,"But I will miss Grisk...No ard feelins?"

The crocodiles eyes narrowed. "Hey, I just day what is neccessary to stay alive." He replied, insulted. "I don't have an endless supply of gold. No, I have to actually work for my daily bread." The crocodile crossed his arms and snorted. "So, what do you do to earn your living?"

"I wander an live off the land, doin good deeds has got me what I got know." He grunted as he moved his left shouldar too quickly,"That thing you summond ta fight me, its claws sunk deep." He sighed again,"I've ad ta work ere in town to get money ta buy food since I can't very well forage in ma condition." He turned to the otter that was selling the weapons,"So mate can ya fix me axe, tis a gift from lord Strongstripe." He put the iron axe on the counter infront of the otter.

"Call it the way you want, you're no better than I am." The crocodile stated and gestured with his claw. "I just don't like to judge beasts and factions before I've not seen them myself. There are a good and bad beasts on either side, you know. Besides..." The crocodile shrugged. "If you remember correctly, I was the one who slew the warlord and ended the siege of your fortress."
