After engaging in a series of intense rounds with his lordship's knights, Deyran found himself abruptly yanked away from the thrill of the sparring grounds. Tasked with a seemingly menial chore – the acquisition of additional funds for the already opulent coffers – he obediently set forth, the clink of sovereigns in his pouch echoing the weight of his servitude.
However, as he navigated the bustling streets, the crisp allure of adventure caught his attention. A flier, almost as if charmed, fluttered down onto his lap. The inked promises on the parchment whispered of excitement and wanted help, and in that moment, Deyran's allegiance began to sway like a pendulum. The mundane task forgotten, he chose the unmarked path of the unknown, hoping the reward would outshine the loss of the meager sum he had been given.
Seeking solace near the shade of a towering tree, Deyran cast his gaze towards two distant figures, one donned in servitude, the other an unmistakable warrior. With a hopeful glint in his eyes, he mused aloud,
Undeterred, Deyran turned his attention to the duo.
TLDR;

Hopefully, more will come, right?addressing a nearby sparrow that tilted its small head in confusion in reply to his query.
Undeterred, Deyran turned his attention to the duo.
I think we should introduce ourselves,he suggested to the sparrow. In response, the tiny creature had vehemently chirped and taken flight, leaving the half-elf. Exhaling in resignation, he muttered,
Fine...His agile fingers, now wielding a sword as a makeshift carving tool, etched intricate patterns onto the bark of the tall tree.
TLDR;
- Deyran saw the flier and spent what little he was given to journey to the meeting place.
- He arrived early to carefully stalk and assess those that will be joining.
- Reason For Being Here: Bored, he saw an opportunity to earn more instead, while doing something more fun and meaningful.
