She shivers. Cold. Pulling her hood up tightly, Annabeth trudges along in the snow, her boots going in deep before pulling up. Going to town is hard at this time of year, but her abnormal body heat keeps her from freezing in this weather. Crossing over the frozen river near town, she pulls down her hood and pulls off her gloves. Stuffing them into her jacket pocket, she turns her head to either side to make sure she's not being followed.

The view of the first buildings show up before she sees the sign:

SHavenFall

Population: 63

Newcomers Welcome

If New, please report to Sheriff's
Office on the Right

The handwritten letters and numbers written over and around the original painted bold black words brings a smile to Annabeth's face. She walks casually along the street, comfortable with the familiar territory. She walks into the Boarback Tavern, unfazed as she walks in casually. She nods to Eryn, the owner of the Boarback, and slides down onto a stool near the bar.

A beer slides towards her and she stops it with her right hand, without spilling a drop of the alcohol inside the bottle. She takes a swig before a figure slides onto a movable stool in front of her. "What brings you here at this hour?"

Annabeth shrugs and takes another swig, letting the liquid burn down her throat. "I don't think I know myself."

Eryn sighs. "Annabeth, you're going to have to pay for your own drinks from now on if you don't trust me with everything."

She whines. "Oh come on, Eryn. You godly monsters never let us werewolves have any fun." She chugs down the bottle's contents before feeling the effects of the liquid, intoxication dulling her senses.

"Well?"

"I was on the usual scouting route when I saw a girl." She pauses as she tries to remember through the haze. "She didn't smell like a human, and yet she had a hint of human in her."

"Like how werewolves are part human?" Eryn asks in confusion, but Annabeth shakes her head.

"It was, different. She had a mix of smells in her scent, and I still can't figure out what it is..."

"What else?"

"Well I found her near the forest's edge, and I also caught the scents of some vampires and werewolves having been near her moments before I arrived. I don't know if their planning an attack on the girl, having caught her scent as well, but if they do...-"

Eryn's eyes widen. "They'd be breaking the Pact." Annabeth nods as Eryn passes her another beer. "But then what are you going to do?"

Annabeth smirks then. "Well, I thought I could get some backup on catching some rogues. You interested?"

Eryn shakes her head sadly. "I would help, but I'm neutral territory. If I help one side..."

Annabeth nods, understanding. "You wouldn't be neutral and chaos would erupt." She looks back at Eryn. "Do you know anyone that might?"

"I may know one..." Eryn smiles before lifting her chin towards a figure in the back, clouded in shadow.

"Thanks." Annabeth slides out of the stool and walks over to the lone figure before sitting across from them, hands folded.

"What do you want?" Says a sharp voice, anger clawing at the edges.

"Heard you might be interested in catching rogues. Wanted to know the truth."

"I do it for a price. Half of whatever you earn. Or," He lifts his hood to show his black eyes, only the whites showing any sign of humanity in him. "I pick from the win."

Annabeth shrugs. "Whatever you want as long as I get the rogues under my name."

He nods, finger tapping his chin. He raps his knuckles against the table, his skull ring glistening in the tavern's dim lights. "Deal." He raps it again, his skull ring now knocking against the wood of the table, and a compartment slides out beside him. He pulls out a Stygian Iron sword from the inside before placing it on the table, blade point aimed towards Annabeth, who sits steadily, unfazed.

He nods. "What do you need?"

Annabeth smiles, her golden eyes turning to wolfish slits. "I need all the firepower you've got, demigod."
