Rowan nodded and looked around for the nearest tavern, "Alright, we will stay here for the night." he suggested and went to secure three rooms. "All food and drink is paid for, but other... pursuits are out of your own pocket," he said and reached into a bag and pulled out two small but heavy bags, "A retainer," he said.
The captain nodded, "Leaving now miss," he said. "One gold coin to get you to Ten Towers." he said. "We will get there round midnight." he added.
It was around midnight when Pia decided she had enough and was going to spend the night on the ship. She had slept badly the night before and missed the gentle rocking of the ship. "Well night Liam, will see you in the mornng," she said and shook her head as two barmaids sat on his lap. She headed out into the foggy evening. the rain during the day and the almost freezing cold of the evening made the air thick with moisture.
She saw a ship come in. She frowned, it was unusual for any ship to come into dock late. She noticed a noblewoman come off the gangplank and several dockmen get up off their seats. "Boys," she warned. "You will not like what I do next," she added.
the men looked into the fog and realized it was Pia and backed off. "Ma'am," they said and sat down, drinking their ales.

Kade took the gold and secure it before taking a seat and looking around the tavern.
"That sounds fair enough." He said and smiled as a blonde woman walked over and sat on his lap.
Erin nodded and pulled out a small pouch and handed the captain one gold coin. Flipping the hood of her cloak over her head once more Erin walked off the ship.She still needed to find some fighters that would be her next mission.Erin began the walk off the dock through the fog to find the nearest tavern.
Liam turned his head and smiled.
"Night Pia, you be careful going back to the ship and I will see you at first light." he said and turned his attention back to the two women on his lap. Ten minutes later Liam got to his feet and followed the two women up to his room..

Pia rose her eyebrow as the woman she just saved from certain attack walked off without a word. "Well so much for doing a good turn," she said to herself. "Probably an up themselves Lannister," she added.
In the tavern, as Erin scanned the room she would find in amongst all of the dockworkers, one table that held fighters, three men. One white haired and two dark haired fighters.
A woman walked over and sat on Rowan's lap. He rose one eyebrow. "Madam, I am not interested, please vacate my lap," he said in a cold tone.
Dion leaned back in his seat and regarded his employer then winked at a red haired woman who walked past. What a cold son of a....

Erin screwed up her nose as soon as she walked into the tavern she always hated the stench off the tavern. Erin looked around and seen some fighters sitting at one off the tables.
Flipping her hood back, Erin walked over to the table and looked at each of the fighters.
"I am looking for fighters to accompany me to north of the wall, I will make it worth you're while on gold are you interested?" Erin asked.
Kade sat forward and looked Erin up and down.
"Other things interest me more Miss" He said with a wink.
"Go sniff around elsewhere I am very selective off who I bed." Erin spat..

Dion laughed, "Well arent we a bit up ourselves?" he said. "I would say a Lannister," he added and regarded her blonde hair.
Rowan crossed his arms, "Sorry Lady, these men are brought already." he said.
Dion thought for a moment. "What do you need fighters for above the wall?" he asked.

Erin looked straight at Rowan.
"Then I will take my leave and look elsewhere" Erin said and looked towards Dion when he spoke to her.
"Has this man who brought you explained exactly what is required off you?, I need strong fighters who will do exactly what they are paid to do and they will walk away handsomely paid for their services. If you think I am being vague you thought right only the fighters I hire will know what I need them for beyond the wall." Erin said.

rowan rose one eyebrow. "In all fairness Milady, I don't know what we are looking for. We are going on an observation journey so there is nothing more to know. Seems to me you are at a crossroads because from here to the wall there are no more fit soldiers, everyone else is fighting for the King of the North or the Lannisters." he said. "Anyone of decent abilities has taken the black. Now, if you want to tag along with us, we will watch your back for whatever mission you have. Ours is rather more dramatic. The fate of the world and all that." he added.
Dion looked to Rowan and then to the newcomer. He wouldn't mind being paid double, after all a Lannister is supposed to always pay their debts.

Erin looked at Doin for a few seconds then looked to Kade.
"Are you in on this deal as well?" She asked.
"Ohh yeah, I will watch your back and everything as well." Kade said with a cheeky grin.
Erin shook her head and nodded to Dion before looking at Rowan.
"I assume you have a ship secured, I will give you gold to help pay for the hire if that is alright by you?" Erin asked.

Rowan shook his head, "No, keep your gold. you will need to get much warmer clothing than that, wolf fur is best," he added and gave her directions to the nearest seller. "We leave at first light." he said. "We are staying here, if you wish, I will secure a room for you." he added. "I am off to bed," he said and shook his head as a woman came walking towards him. He looked at Erin and stuck out his hand, "Rowan baratheon milady."

Erin nodded her head.
"Thank-you, that was my next stop to get warm clothes.And yes if you could secure me a room I would be grateful." Erin said and took Rowan hand and shook it.
"Erin Lannister" She said and watched Rowan walk towards the tavern owner. Erin turned back to Dion and Kade and nodded her head.
"Do you want me to walk with you, the roads are not safe for a lady to walk on her own." Kade asked.
Erin raised a eyebrow and flipped back her cloak to reveal the sword at her side.
"I can look after myself" Erin said then sighed she had to stop doing that she needed these men.
"Thank-you for the offer though" She added.

Dion shook his head, "Friend, you really have not had alot to do with proper ladies. Lady Erin here is not some tavern wench." he said and stood. "I know you are able to defend yourself, but two is better odds," he said. "I will make sure you return safely," he said and extended his hand, "Just call me Dion, my last name is irellevant." he added.

Erin took Dion's hand and shook it.
"Erin Lannister" She said and looked to Kade.
"Nice to meet you both" She said. Kade got to his feet and extended his hand.
"Just call me Kade" He said with a small smile. Erin walked along side Dion as he lead her to the store that sold warm clothing.
Gathering what she need Erin laid it on the bench,A few moments later she slammed her hand on the clothes.
"Do not try and take average off me sir because I am a female.Lower your price or I will take my business to the other store I visited." Erin said in a low voice.the man coughed and looked around the store as the few who were standing there turned to see what as happening.
"My mistake miss, been a long day I just added it up wrong." He said and lowered the price to be more reasonable.
Erin payed for her items and nodded her head slightly.
"Pleasure doing business with you" She said and picked up her parcel to leave the store.

Dion actually jumped at Erin's outburst, "You know that you catch more flies with honey than vinegar. I don't understand why you feel the need to be so nasty in order to command respect. My sister is one of the most respected women where I come from any man or woman would put his life down for her. Just saying," he said and took the package that the man had wrapped up and ordered a few other things that rowan had ordered for them as well. "I will carry this for you milady." he said.

Once they walked outside Erin stopped walking and turned to face Dion.
"I know this is no excuse but I am a Lannister and this is how I have been brought up. My father is a hard man and his daughter wanted to learn to fight with a sword and I did and he demands alot from me. I start acting girlie as he puts it, it will be my undoing and he will marry me off to raise his status.So there is a little insight to Erin Lannister I have just being playing this role for so long I forget to drop the facade." Erin said with a small smile and flipped her hood back over her head.
"Shall we head back?" Erin asked.

Dion shrugged, "Your call," he said and walked her back to the tavern.
Rowan was waiting and gave her the key to her room. "We leave first thing in the morning. I am going to see the captain and book you passage with us." he said.
Rowan went to find Liam, the owner of the ship they were sailing on. "I have one more passenger if you can fit them on board." he said.
