An unusual wind howled tonight as many people thought it was weird the way that it blew through the night air. The sound of hooves could be heard as they echoed and clobbered against the cobblestone road beneath them. A hooded figure was making his way into town, people quaked at his presence because of how unknown he was.

Many townsfolk thought that explained the strange wind.

He was merely passing through but something stirred inside of him to visit the inn, which was nearby. His dark eyes went to the building while he jumped off of his horse and tied her to a post. "Easy, girl." His hand stroked her mane gently before patting her on the side and walking to the entrance of the inn. It might've been a good idea to rest for the night but he did need to scope the place out first - though something did draw him here.

Once the door opened, the strange breeze blew inside the inn with his cloak blowing up along with it. All eyes were currently situated on him but yet his feet took him to the bar counter as his hand went to the hood of his cloak and pulled it back, revealing a man with dark, raven locks of hair, a scar on the left side of his cheek, and a goatee.

His hand waved to the barmaid to get him something to drink, didn't matter what it was. One thing he couldn't put his finger on was what exactly drew him to this particular building. The barmaid brought him his drink and he asked for the owner, or whoever runs the inn.

That was when he felt that strange urge from earlier creep inside of him again. His eyes were on the female who was walking his way as he took a big swig from his beverage.

"I was wondering if I could get a room or something for the night." A lie but she didn't know that at this particular moment. "And somewhere of this." Referring to his drink. He failed to introduce himself because he went by multiple aliases due to being a hunter. He needed to think quickly on his feet to land on a name and make sure that it fit him but more importantly, that it stuck good enough.
