[ Nights have been getting cooler by the day, what with winter slowly coming upon them. And that means heavy coats and shawls, anything to protect oneself from the chills that would soon be upon them. Winter is never kind on anyone and this time it would be no different.
However, tonight isn't terribly cold and that's something Roxas is grateful for as he ventures out to hopefully find something quick to eat. Perhaps the baker down the road throwing out stale breads or the grocer ridding himself of unsaleable goods. Whichever the case, he would be the most grateful since times have been harsh on the family and its business, not many people needing assistance in regards to weaponry and smithy in the small quiet town that isn't even met with the occasional wandering traveler. Very few times it has happened and if there is, everyone would know of the occurrence.
Cautiously making his way through the lagging crowds, an uproarious sounds attracts his attention, eyes finding that the local tavern full to the brim as always. It seems to be the only lively place around here and though some look to it with disdain, some find it a comfort that there's a chance anything could happen if one ventures through the doors. Unfortunately, bravery only seems to come from the larger men and they delight in picking on those smaller than them.
Roxas continues on his way-- or would have if not for the strange sight that catches his eye.
A strange looking fellow, one he's never set eyes on before, looking about cautiously as waiting on someone or could quite possibly be lost if they aren't from around these parts. Stature definitely shorter than most men of the town but leaving an aura strong enough that tells people to not approach unless necessary. And while he doesn't find it necessary, the figure intrigues Roxas enough to approach, albeit cautiously.
Who knows, maybe they just need a bit of direction. ]
Um, hello? Do you.. need some help?
[ Or he could be walking to death's door.
If anything, good or bad, this could be one experience he could tell his twin brother... if he survives. ]
