On the other side of the bar, near the stage sat a man well into his years. A bow sat beside his table and a quiver of arrows hung from the back of his chair. He had salt and pepper hair, bright green eyes, and a look of intense focus. Something caught his eye, glinting in the firelight of the candles. Without a word, he picked up his trusty bow and knocked an arrow.<br/><br/>Abia, still focused on Victor, was unaware of Renard pushing money toward her. However, her attention was ripped away as a loud bang rang out throughout the room. Her head whipped away towards the table that was the source of the noise to find blood pooling on the polished wood. An arrow was sticking out of the back of Renard’s hand, the barbed-tip of the mythril-made arrow shot through his flesh and the wood of the table, pinning him to it.<br/><br/>The archer stood from his seat and shuffled over to the group, a slight limp to his step. His hunting loafers muffled his footfalls. Only his wheezing breath alerted everybody of his presence. “That, there, sonny, is a bad thing you did. Shame on you. These eyes have seen far too much for me to be able to miss such a bumbling move.” After admonishing Renard, he nodded his head towards Nathan, “that coin is yours, friend, that he’s trying to pawn off to our dear Abia. She’s no fool, but she surely would have missed that had it not been for me. Name’s Guy, Guy Fiery. They call me Hawk Guy on account of my hawklike eyes.” He reached into the cup and grabbed all the coins, handing it back to the ex-knight. “Take better care of that now.”<br/><br/>“And you, boy” he said pointing at Renard, his knobby finger inches from his face, as if he were about to poke the man’s eyes, “You need a good disciplining!” He coughed after his words, a loud hacking noise reminiscent of a dying bird. A few toots managed to escape his other end with each convulsion. “Pardon me,” he said as he composed himself from the coughing fit. “You better take a seat. I got quite a few words to share with you, and this is going to take all night if it has to.”
