She laughed a bit “exciting is quite the word for things around here. I’m sure you can find that anywhere it just may be more than you were looking for.” She shrugged and grinned as she tilted her head “No idea what it’s like around here and looking for excitement? Quite the combo. Most at least know a little bit about here maybe” Eira remarked before taking her new drink when it arrived beginning to drink some of it. This day was far more interesting than she could have anticipated in all honesty. It was quite the display in her mind as it was very different compared to the normal crowd and conversations she would here and so on.

Falling into contemplation, the Tiefling listens to the advice given by the other patrons. I suppose I should investigate this city quite better. There is just too much which plays around in the background of this locale. “The both of you sound like you’ve been here for quite some while. And seems to have experience with the fun that goes around here”. The Tiefling twiddles his thumb around out of anxiousness, feeling that searching for something in the city is one act he isn’t ready for. Quite a dilemma, to investigate the city or not? Well, I suppose life can only be played once and it’s not the right time to end the game. Perhaps, I’ll come back here when I’m more prepared or experienced. Feeling a bit parched, he picks up his glass and sips a small amount from the glass.

“The both of you sound like you’ve been here for quite some while. And seems to have experience with the fun that goes around here”.
“You could say that.” Iryla replies, watching as they both continue to drink. “When you’re a local… You tend to catch onto the ebb and flow of life around here pretty quickly. You kind of have to.” She shrugs a bit and shares a glance with Eira. “It’s sink or swim in Darkveil. Either you learn to survive it, or you don’t.” At least, that’s how life was for those lacking money and power. If you had either of those things, you could probably live a pretty comfortable life even in a place like Darkveil…
But most people were like her. Poor and just doing whatever it takes to survive. Only recently had Iryla’s life shifted from a breakneck race to survive into a life where she could afford to take things a bit slower for herself, even if she never, ever stopped thinking about ways to get ahead. She imagined that even if their circumstances were different Eira's life was likely similar in some ways to her own. Most people around here tended to have similar stories.

“Even then it may not be enough. Sometimes the worst happens no matter your intentions or what ya do you know?” She questioned, a bit of a wild look flashing in her eyes quickly looking back down after seeming to have seen something that wasn’t there “anyways any other questions for surviving the night?” She asked the boy with a curious grin seeming to get a little tired at the chaos of the day and the strange but interesting evening to have followed suit. Her head was beginning to ache a bit as she tapped her fingers on the bar table before them

"I suppose too much excitement occurs daily in the city." Sitting in the chair, both arms crossed. A small glance back at the moon elf, feeling instinctually that there was a story behind the carefree facade she held as a shield. It's not my problem, but then again. I just cannot get rid of my thirst, my ache for battle. If I hear any information in regards to a fight, depending on who it is. I may bloody these streets. "Well, little elf, mind sharing some of your famous tips on survival skills for Darkveil city?" Swiveling his head towards the half elf, a curious expression appearing on his face.
Relaxing his arms to allow the elbows to lower towards the ground a tiny distance, a small slack in his posture. Instinctually, he continues to have the muscles within his entire body stay tense as was drilled into him from youth. What an intriguing evening so far, grasping a bit more details of the surroundings and met what seems to be 'fun' personalities. Rotating his shoulders, to allow a sense of looseness within the body. A necessity to keep his body warm for whatever types of movement he may need to utilize.

A movement by her side draws Iryla’s attention from the Tiefling to the Elf beside her. It’s a subtle thing, a tightening of the shoulders, her fingers drumming on the table. But Iryla was good at reading for even the slightest signs of discomfort.
She… She had to be.
Perhaps it was time to begin wrapping this conversation up. She hadn’t gained much intel from her little trip here, but perhaps that was alright. She had made new points of contact, and knowing people was never a bad thing in a place like this.
Iryla frowns a bit at the nickname once more, but she allows it to roll off her back. “Looking for advice on surviving..? Don’t go looking for trouble, and keep your coin somewhere safe. And I don’t mean in a money pouch.” He seemed the type who would likely get easily pickpocketed around here, simply because he would not know to look out for thieving hands.
Perhaps it was in poor taste to give someone advice on not getting stolen from, when a short time ago she would have been the one looking for someone like him to get her next meal. But, oh well.
Glancing back at Eira, Iryla closes her sketchbook and puts it back inside her satchel.
“I think my soup has gone cold by now, but it wasn’t bad. I’ll have to come back here again sometime.”

Eira listened to the two as she ignored the whispers of ghosts from her past. She glanced up to the other female and nodded "Hope to see ya around again fana" she remarked using the name she had been given. Her gaze seemed more distant as she then stood. She was slowly spiraling towards a panic attack by the memories that haunted her as they always had. It was a battle on if they would win out or if the last threads of her could win out though she did her best to hold it all in as she grinned. "fun little day" she remarked and looked to the boy "Don't be the victim, strike first" she laughed a bit as that was her advice for this place.

Taking a last look at the two before turning away. Holding his cup to his mouth, alcohol slowly slipping into his mouth. Finishing the rest of the liquor, a small sigh escapes from his lips. Gently placing the cup down onto the table. A warm feeling rising to his face. Finding the two elves to be quite intriguing, taking in the view of them. "You both have my thanks for entertaining my thoughts and questions. May we meet again." Giving a small bow in their direction before turning towards the entrance.
Striding towards the doors, his movements are a tad unstable. Evident by the small swaying when he steps forward. Feeling this place was even more interesting than he originally thought, his plans for the future shall be quite grand. That is, if he survives that long. Well, let's see what the future holds for me. Hopefully some very interesting events.
