Hail set the sword down on the anvil along with her hammer and walked over, sitting up on her hindlegs and examining the knife Luca held. "Everything I have in my shop is as good and better than this. Take your pick I have some knives hanging up on the wall." She nodded to the knives behind the counter.

"Brilliant! I had heard you had good items here. I'm glad I came to check it out." Luca grinned and walked over to the wall, eyes scanning over the array of weapons. Heat Storm had stopped talking while the two had discussed the knife, now that Luca was done he started to chat once again to no one in particular.
"That's a lot of swords, must be for the knights right?" he glanced over at her work station, tilting his head curiously. He was about the same size as the older griffin, though he had seen griffin that were much larger than the both of them "We just got back into town and a lot seems to have changed." he was good at making small talk, and what he said was mostly true. They had travelled to another kingdom nearby and had grabbed some gold, most of which they'd use to buy the new weapon.

"Some of the best work in town here. They're for the military, I make most of my money off the crown and the army." Hail explained, watching the other griffin. "Have you travelled off the island?" She asked.

Heat Storm nodded "As soon as we had the money saved up we decided to travel a bit. Just this last time though we didn't go far. Honestly we were only gone for a couple months this time around." he could talk for hours about the travelling they did. Most of the trips included stealing, but they also went sight seeing as well. It was safer to steal from neighboring kingdoms rather than their home one. It caused less attention and the would always have a place to retreat to.

"I'm assuming you went to the mainland? What was it like over there? I heard most of the people on the mainland don't know what to make of griffins." She said.

"It's much more busy than here. And they really didn't know what to make of me. Luca says it helped with getting a crowd around, but I think they looked at me more like a beast than an equal." he shrugged, it didn't really bother him all that much. "I'm just glad I could help draw in a crowd and get us some more gold." his tail flicked slowly, brushing against the ground as he got into his story "There was a kid who wanted a ride even." Luca snorted from where he stood. Heat Storm was too nice and had politely walked around with the kid. They had been a homeless child so perhaps Heat Storm felt a sort of connection to her.

"Well that's obvious they would've seen you as an animal." Hail said. "They just don't know how intelligent we can be." She looked at Luca waiting for him to pick out a knife to buy. She wanted to get back to working on the swords but also sort of welcomed a break from the work to talk to another griffin.

"Agreed. I'm just glad the humans around these parts aren't as foolish." he bumped Luca with his tail in a teasing matter "I think I startled a few of them by talking." Luca rolled his eyes. He turned his attention back to the wall and his eyes landed on a nice knife with a black handle. He pointed towards it and asked the griffin how much it would be.

"Maybe I should head to the mainland sometime, it would be a lot of fun. Too bad you aren't a larger griffin you could've flown you and your friend over without having to pay for a boat." She chuckled, turning and taking the knife he pointed to. "40 silvers." She said.

"I wish, the fair is expensive." Heat Storm nodded. He poked his head over Lucas' shoulder to get a look at the knife. It was well made and thin, something that he could keep hidden if he wanted to. Luca pulled out his pouch and rummaged around in it before pulling out the correct amount. "I don't think Luca has ever flown. Probably prefers the boat, or a horse."
"After seeing the way you fly, anyone would." Setting it on the table he slid it towards the griffin "Here you are. The knife looks wonderful, I'll be glad to have something of it's quality." he liked this shop and would be coming back to it if he had to buy something else. After travelling for so long you got a handle of what things should cost and if something was or wasn't worth it. This knife was worth it.

"I don't envy the griffins that are large as horses though." Hail said, taking the money, smirking at Luca's comment and looking to Heat Storm. "Not everyone's a great flyer, not need to be ashamed of it." She joked.

"I'm a great flyer, Luca here just thinks that I'm reckless." Heat Storm chuckled at her words. She was very friendly, which was nice. He'd heard she wasn't as friendly with humans, but so far she had not seemed like anything but welcoming.
"You are fast and reckless. Remember that time you almost flew into a building? Yeah, no thanks I like my bones as they are." granted he had pulled out of the dive with impressive speed, but Heat Storm was prone to getting distracted and almost running into anything and everything in a mile radius.

"There are some nice cliffs to the North-East of the city along the coast that is my favourite place to fly and fish. It's hard to run into anything out above the open ocean." Midnight Hail said, thinking about going there after her work was done. Once Luca has his knife she picked up her hammer and the sword again and went back to working.

"Ohh maybe I should check it out. If you don't mind another griffin around." Heat Storm nodded and glanced back at Luca who was reorganizing his bag. His bag that kept the coins must have opened or something with all the rummaging around he was doing. They should get a room at the inn and fix that before it became a problem.
Luca sheated the knife and stuffed it in his bag "Thanks for the knife." he said before turning to head out the door.

"There are a few other griffins around and many fishermen on boats as well. It's not an unpopular spot." Midnight Hail explained. "Not a problem, I always have stuff to sell here."

Heat Storm nodded and padded after his friend. Once outside he said "I'm glad we decided to buy from her instead of steal. She seemed nice." Luca nodded, shifting the bag on his shoulder, he had to agree. Heat Storm added "There should be an inn around here. You said that we should get one before it get's too late right?"
Can't wait until more people get their forms up :3)

(yeah me too, this is the second time I've tried to make this RP and no one joined for a whole month the first time)
Midnight Hail finished another 3 swords before she hung up her gloves, ones specifically made for griffin talons, and closed the shop, locking up all the weapons and money so it couldn't be stolen while she was gone. She strung her bag over her back and wandered down the street, the setting sun casting the buildings on one side of the street in dark shadow, and the buildings on the other side of the road in a bright orange light. She started the pass the nearby inn.

Heat Storm, who was perched on the roof, noticed her passing and called out a greeting. He jumped down from his perch, landing softly by the front door of the inn. Luca glanced out the small window he was sitting by, a book in his lap. Seeing that it was the other griffin he simply went back to what he was doing. "Hey hey blacksmith, what are you doing out?" he tilted his head "Oh yeah, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Heat Storm, though I think Luca mentioned it." he wanted to be sure she remembered his name, it had been a while since he hung out with another griffin.
(Yeah, it sucks when you work on a rp and it takes ages for people to join.)

(I've probably made 10 RPs on this site that no one has joined at all it gets really frustrating. I had one called Angels Over Rigun that I really loved the plot to but it took me 3 tries to make it before I gave up)
Midnight Hail looked up. "What're you doing on the roof?" She asked, watching Heat Storm. "I'm heading to the cliffs and home." She replied. "Nice to meet you again Heat Storm. My name is Midnight Hail, or just Hail."

"Nice to meet you again." he agreed "Do you mind if I tag along? Luca has said he is in for the day but I'm still in the mood to explore." he could go for a hunt as well. Something to get out all his pent up energy.

"Not a problem. I live around the fishing village near the cliffs when I'm not at my shop. It was more convenient when I lived at my shop, as most blacksmiths tend to live at their smithy, but I could handle living around so many people." Hail said, turning another corner to a more open area where the buildings were further apart before she spread her wings and took off.

Heat Storm followed opening his wings and jumping into the air. With a flap of his wings he was airborne. His lithe build may not be very strong, but he was fast and light. Twirling just for fun he leveled out near the other griffin.

"I'm sure you're pretty comfortable around people by now." Hail said, looking over her shoulder at Heat Storm, flying a bit higher then gliding for a bit as the air current pushed them towards the sea.

The smaller griffin nodded "Yeah, I'd say so. I've always been around them so I'd say I have always been comfortable. And since I live with Luca humans were never anything weird for me." he glanced at her as he flew.

"I grew up in that fishing village, only a few humans there I didn't get to the capital city until I looked for a mentor." She said. "Still not totally used to humans even though I sell to them on a daily basis."

"That's fair, they're so different depending on where they came from. Since the majority of griffins are from around here, or at least these days they are, you have a common back ground. Humans can come from oceans away." he agreed, rolling lazily and flying a few feet ahead before opening his wings and gliding back.
