Back and forth the lone sign upon the wind swung, balanced on creaking, rusted hinges. On its two faces was the same image - a proud, and strong hart standing, with one hoof raised and his head angled to look back over his shoulder. The fourteen points of his bone-coloured antlers rose and pricked the sky. It groaned like an old rocking chair, pushed by a gentle wind, but it was not enough to cover up the murmur of voices that came from within.

Slowly the black, bold kenku stepped into the low tavern, the voices neither getting louder, nor quieter as she entered. Some eyes drifted around to look at her, but only those of normal, curious nature who wished to see who the next patron was that had wandered in from the chill evening. One or two tables' worth lingered upon her, with brows raised as they studied her up and down, but then they spun away again. Yes, she was a kenku, and thus a rare species all around, but this was still Radasanth, city of a hundred races already. And she was wearing nothing special - just a humble woollen tunic and her cloak that hid the carefully folded wings that she had finally gotten used to. And the people here - why they were mostly left overs from the long night before. It was barely able to be called morning and most were either nursing headaches or eating fine breakfasts.

As the last eyes fled away from her, Stare pulled in her breath and allowed her own eyes to wander. She saw the fairly large hall, the various groups of patrons and the bar. Many species, from human to elf, to goblin and even a minotaur or two were present, and so she was not an entire alien. A group of idle musicians tinkered on their instruments, either rehearsing for the evening or fulfilling their own amusement. With a small nod to herself Stare Tsukaka, once called Avis, picked up her claw hind feet and began traversing over to the bar.

She saw a fiery redhead, unusually enthusiastic, early as it was. Stare raised her brow as she approached the bar.

"Someone is cheery," she commented as she leant against the bar. "Weirdo."

The barman looked over to her and paused, as he looked between the two. "Erm. Right. Are you here for breakfast too or ...?"

"No actually I'm here looking for someone," the kenku tilted her head. "Did you see a half giant in here recently?"
