The simple cabin set up a little under a mile out of the town of Runswick had fairly recently acquired itself a new tenant in the form of one Eldan Caen (http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2012/312/8/e/dual_wielding_by_andreameloni-d5kdunn.jpg); a swordsman who often made a living by selling his services for the right coin and was no stranger to traveling where there seemed to be a heavier workload. It was this which brought the skilled adventurer to this new location, as the dark haired figure went about storing away the fish he’d purchased from a merchant back in town before allowing himself a few minutes to sit at the small table and rest his feet for a spell.<br/><br/>The cabin was a single story in height, but was rather large for a single person to occupy by their lonesome; a fact brought up by a few people in town whom suggested he take up residence within one of the smaller lodgings found within the town limits. But this cabin tended to fit Eldan’s needs far better than any place to be found within the actual borders of Runswick itself. For one, it was nearer to the denser portions of surrounding wildlife, which meant good hunting when it was needed for a meal or other materials. But a bigger reasons had to do with Eldan’s line of work, along with a particular ‘talent’ of his which he wasn’t exactly ashamed of, yet did tend to avoid revealing to people unless needed due to the bothersome baggage which often came with it.<br/><br/>Cracking his neck as he surveyed the surrounding interior of the cabin which he’d purchased only a week prior, the fit young swordsman realized he was missing something of importance, which caused him to lightly curse at his overlooking such an important piece of survival out here. “Firewood.” He let out with a sigh at the realization of his being out of it, as the human pulled himself to his feet and moved toward where he hid his bag of coins beneath a loose fitting floor board. Counting how much was left, he weighed his options before giving a shake of his head, “Gonna need to cut a few corners until I find a new contract.  Buying this place nearly wiped me out of my earnings from before.”<br/><br/>The male was often alone, so speaking to himself wasn’t entirely uncommon for Eldan, as he returned his remaining coins to their hiding spot and considered going out to cut down a tree or two to set him up for the near future. It was about then that he also realized his lack of a good ax at this time, which caused the young man to let out an amused chuckle. “Looks like I’ll have an excuse to let the big guy out for a few minutes, at least.” He considered while looking over his upturned hand, as the digits briefly shifted into an elongated, almost beastly set of fingers, before returning to their usual appearance.<br/><br/>With that in mind, the large male departed from the cabin and started on his way deeper into the portions of the woods which were often ignored by humankind. He was told there was more than simple wildlife to be found out that way, but the fact that most of the villagers left those areas alone also meant he could use his abilities without fear of being noticed by his new ‘neighbors’. Besides, with a blade fastened to his belt, along with those other less advertised abilities, Eldan doubted there was much out there which couldn’t be dealt with.
