Cassian was on his way back towards Kirkwall, the inn along the way had been suggested to him by someone in a bar over towards the prison, as a good place to stop for a meal, and maybe bed down for the night to let the horse you rode get a good nights rest before continuing the 40 or so miles down the road. Easy ground for a horse to travel in a day, not so much by food, so, he was glad to see the stone and wood come into view, leading his horse around to the side stable, he was met by a pretty little elf, silver haired and blue eyed, not normal coloring for an elf, by any stretch of the imagination and handed her over the reigns.
"And cook, and soon to be ex-whore, and bouncer, and book keeper, Dad's inside handling some ... particularly overzealous customers, if you want to hang out here a few minutes, he'll have them cleared out in no time." Cass watched as she took his horse into the stable and lead her into a stall, talking in a hushed whisper to the animal the entire time.
Cassian caught one of the guys trying to make a charge at Cooper, and collared him, yanking him downward and kicking his feet out from under him.

You're the stable hand?

Think I'll go give him some help,he told the woman as he heard a plate shatter against the wall, before he was making long strides towards the side door that she had pointed towards. Once inside, he stood for a second, trying to figure out who was aggressor, and who was owner, the elf ... she was young, but that didn't mean anything, but he wasn't seeing any elves among the crowd that looked of an age to be her father, so, instead, he grabbed the nearest man, giving an older warrior back talk.
Time for you to leave asshole, I think the gentleman said to get.Then his words registered, his place, so the elf was adopted, that made the elder the owner, and Dad, and...
Dad?

Sit your ass down or I'll put you down, got it?Once again glad he hadn't worn his armor for the ride, being in travel leathers made moving about the queueing bar fight easier to work through.
