A bar seemed like a nice idea, but it was an idea for tomorrow.

I crawled under my covers and waited for sleeps dark embrace.

I got out of bed the next day and went straight to the bar.

I thought about picking up my food but I didn't want it getting stolen by someone stronger.

Hundred year food was enough to make someone point their dagger at me.

As soon as I got there I scanned the room.

A pair of beauties by the fire a few at the tables and one at the bar.

With one step after the other, I made my way to beside her.

"Bartender could I get some beer."

He turned around looked at me and then filled up a glass before handing it to me.

"So pretty lady, do you come here often?"

She turned and glanced at me with her pool blue eyes.

She was a beauty but not of the peerless sort.

Her jet black her fell on her oval face in a somewhat rugged manner.

Her most stunning feature was the contrast between her hair and her eyes.

"I have to forget about all the dangers while foraging."

I thought about making her a ring for just a second but food came first.

"So you're a forager? How many rings do you have?"

"I have two rings" She said while holding up two fingers

"Then you must be quite strong?"

Of course, she was strong anyone with two rings was strong.

"Ya, there both soulbound so I cant interchange them. But it's not like I want to get rid of them." She said

"Let me guess the first one is an escape technique and the second one is stealth," I said

"That's easy enough to guess," she said while shifting her figure.

There's something beautiful about the way a woman shifts her figure.

I had to leave I thought too myself.

I knew if I stayed any longer I might forget about my quest for revenge.

As I sipped the beer thoughts of staying in the outpost protected bubbled up into my head.

Beautiful women were a man's greatest hope and also his greatest weakness.

I didn't really want to figure out details about her life seeing as how I had to go back to the sandbar.

So I shot my shot.

"Do you wanna get out of here?" I asked

"No I'm alright" She responded curtly

Whatever I was the third most valuable person in the outpost I couldn't let this affect me.

I turned around and walked towards the fire where a bard had started playing. I sat down and started staring into the fire again.

The music seemed to drift over me while the ladies laughs echoed in my year.

With my power only working while I was outside I missed little moments like this.

I spent the rest of the day staring into the fire thinking about how I was going to improve my life.

I went home after the alcohol wore off, I hadn't even drunk that much.

It was easier to fall asleep at least.

The next day when I got up I remembered that I hadn't eaten the food that was cooked for me.

I went to the cafeteria first thing there were two meals waiting for me.

They were both hundred-year oxen, so it's not like I missed out two much.

I picked up the meals and decided to eat at the winery with morgan.

The beautiful part of morgan was nothing about her made me want to settle down with her.

She was like a butterfly that was happy resting on your finger for a short while.

As soon as I got there I walked through the winery and out to the back patio.

I knew she would come and find me if I showed my face and sure enough.

Out came a beautiful girl dressed in a black skirt.

It seemed to hug her figure in a beautiful way as she came towards me with a wine bottle in hand.

"I didn't expect to see you back here so soon"

"Well, I just felt like drinking wine today."

"Hopefully not dragon wine" She teased with a light smile

I didn't even feel like trying to get benefits today.

"I'll trade you some food for some ordinary wine"

"Deal," She said

I passed the food and she poured us both some wine.

She didn't seem startled at the food and didn't mention anything.

That's why I liked her she was smart.

I drank wine and ate my food and stared at the sunset in silence.

"Look at this I learned a new way to use my ring sun collector"

She stood up and did a twirl in front of me.

It reminded me of a beautiful butterfly emerging from a flower.

I clapped "very beautiful indeed," I said

As she came back she said, "Since you gave me a ring that means we're married and you have to bring me presents."

"Sorry ill only be able to bring you very few presents."

She pretended to make a pouty face.
