Call to Adventure (Private)
Daniel shivered as he marched through the snow as it tumbled down , he was wearing a faded red cloak , fasted tightly around him with a silver pin. He had his bow over his back and the hood up to keep the snow of him. Looming ahead was the grey stonework of a military fort with a few torn banners and flags fluttering above. He looked around , the thing was sitting at a gap between two mountains ,serving as the only gateway through, a perfect place for a military checkpoint like this. He looked to his partner and sighed , trudging up to the structure. Once he got closer he could see the fort was really to one side , and served as half the wall , the rest was wooden stakes and basic fortifications long to a single tower that was crumbling apart. Moving into and through the wooden gate that was standing open he looked up and saw the guard clad in grey blue colours up on a wooden platform give the pair a lazy look and went back to warming himself by the fire.
Inside was a large courtyard with the fort on one side with an arch to act as a entranceway, to the side with the ruined tower and wooden wall there were a few stone and thatched houses , one with a wooden sign outside , a painting of a bonfire with the words 'EmberHold Fort inn'. Stepping inside the hooded one in red took down his hood and looked around. The bar was to one side with a hearth and fire set opposite the door and a verity of tables and chairs set up around the floor. The male had dark red mahogany hair and a youthful fresh face. Grinning as the warmth washed over him, shaking his head a few drops flicked off his wet hair as he went to the fireplace and put his hands over the flames to heat himself up. The bartender was behind the bar , dosing slightly on a chair.
