Another day had yet broken in the quiant little griffon settlement known as the Rocky Ridge, was located in the northern plains to the west near the chilly mountains that loomed over in the horizon, as the morning sun illuminated their majestical presence. The settlement was starting to awake early to their daily routines, as the some of the villagers were already outside to continue their daily labour to keep the small town up and running, while plowing through the thick layers of snow that was now covering the ground by meters. Meanwhile in the town's inn, a certain grey unicorn was starting to slowly open his eyes, rubbing them and wake up from his comfortable bed to gather his belongings.
OC:
*He had arrived yesterday to this peaceful little mountainside settlement, after he had visited the nearby Broken Hoof pony tribe with some of his tribe members yesterday, to conduct official business concerning about the trading agreements. He was now standing in the front of the inn's porch, observing all the griffon villagers and guards walking bakc and forth through the bustling snowy streets and inhaled the fresh cold mountain air in his lungs deeply, before exhaling it out slowly with satisfaction*
Nothing beats the fresh cold air in the winter! Might have to grab some mulled wine with me, before I'll head out from this town...
*He left the porch of the inn and started to make his way through the streets of the griffon colony, while nodding greetingly to most of the bypassers until he reached the general store at the end of the town. As he stepped right through the sturdy wooden door inside the shop, he was immediately greeted by an elderly light grey and white griffon shop keeper who was busy at the moment placing his products on the shelves*
Good morning there, sir! *He greeted the unicorn merrily as he kept organizing his shop, before after a while turning around to face him with a happy smile* How are you today? What can I interest you in today, my good tribal unicorn?
I'm quite fine, thank you very much! I came here to purchase some of your local mulled wine, and perhaps some dried fish to the road, if that's fine with you good man?
Absolutely, sir! Just wait a dear second! *Without a second later, he hovered up to one of the higher shelves, grabbed few bottles of the local mulled wine and the landed to the ground again, and trotted to the dry room behind the counter and came back with some dried fish meat wrapped in the paper and laid it on the counter with the bottles* Is there anything else you might want to purchase before you'll be leaving, good sir?
*The unicorn shook his head lightly, before coming up with his coinpurse and giving the shop keeper the amount of silver coins* No thank you, that'll be all! *He grabbed his items from the table with his magic and levitated them to his saddlebags on his back, and closed the buckle on them firmly, before trotting out of the shop as he waved at the elderly griffon* Nice doing business with you! Have a nice day!
Always a pleasure, my dear customer! Come back anytime! *He shouted at the leaving unicorn, as he left his shop with the door swinging firmly close behind him*
