The bar was at the peak of hussle and bussle of the night. There was much laughing and cheering, the bard was exhausting himself with cider and music, and the barmaid was stuck cleaning the mess.

A usual stepped in through the door, allowing a gentle gust of autumn to sweep his heels and freshen the room, he looked disheveled and pink in the face, with two puncture woulds at the base of his neck. The barmaid brought dirty glasses to the bar to be cleaned and raised an eyebrow at the gentleman's small wound and his current state of dishevelment. The man laughed a good hearty one, he was big and burly, handle bar mustache and smelt like honey so the idea of a somethinf making a dent to him was surprising, until his laugh settled and he spoke six simple words.

"You should see the other guy."

And at that moment another gentleman walked in, tall and slim, pale with two obvious fangs also looking quite disheveled covered in deep red kisses, his button down, his face and neck all of it covered in kisses, he walked towards the big burly gentleman and took a seat beside him. The barmaid chuckled, smiling softly.

"Congrats on your engagment."

She motioned to the slim man's engagement ring, they nodded, sharing their 'thank yous' before the barmaid resumed to their duties and the two men sat giddily drinking a sparkly strawberry drink together.

You shouldn't stay up so late. There's an inn across the street, go there and rest for the night, your journey was long and hard but you made it here.

If you come by tomorrow morning, I'll personally make you breakfast and hand you a wonderful quest, one where you get to see how you've grown from your journey.
