It was an early day for Terren as he had packed a small bag to take to the festival were his path would be decided as soon as he has everything arranged. This was not Terrens first Festival and like always he reserved a booth ahead of time for today was very important to him as he moved through the bustling people and made it to his booth were he lay over a purple shiny cloth over the counter of the booth were he sat on his stool to boost himself up and wait for someone to come over and take a flyer from his hiring booth. Terren didn't want just anyone taking a flyer though he reserved a spot in this area because of the fact he wanted to have leaders take a flyer for this meeting to bid on his services even if he looked like a flat-chested girl with a large bone arm, armor, and odd hair that flows and flickers like red shadows . Terren waited as he had only passed out 6 of his 20 fryers and it was becoming a little annoying that no one of any importance had shown up in a while but his silence bone arm and flowing hair sometimes would creep others out .
Terren remembered the last time he was at a festival with the troupe he was in and it brought him fond memories but Terren would never smile for some reason and it would make him seem like a cold person but in reality he was smiling on the inside . It seemed as though time had slowed down as Terrens frustrations grew thinking a booth was not proper advertising and soon he would have to start making people pay attention to him or nothing would happen .

Corvus was just pacing along, minding his own business, passing by the booths and stalls. Today was a day to simply enjoy the surroundings, make nice with other people, and perhaps if given the...by the goddess what was a flat-chested girl with a bone arm doing handing out flyers. Out of the goodness of his heart, he removed one from the table and quickly skimmed the contents.
"Hmm? Interesting. Bodyguard. Payment flexible. Auction coming up at the end of the festival." He put the flyer in his pocket and looked up at the bone-armed...man?
"I must say you really need to advertise better. Nobles aren't quite the type to read flyers as they pass by. You need to observe by example....uhhh...honestly this is kinda awkward, but I can't tell a lick of who you are. Honestly you look like a weakling, just saying." In truth, the cat was trying to bait him into performing a feat of strength so the man or woman would show off his or her prowess to the crowds. Typically Corvus was not one for notoriety, but this person would benefit from it.

Terren wasn't the type to get insulted by the things people say but he he did not like the be called a weakling either even if he was four foot and six inches tall and on top of that looked like a girl but either way this cat was right and an example desperately needed to be made . Terren hoped off of his stool and moved over to a wagon filled with things that were not his , The wagon was owned by another merchant that was rude to Terren earlier that day . It didn't take much effort for terren to unlatch the horse that was beside it but as he moved to the side of the wagon effortlessly he grabbed it up from the side pulling it toward himself as the wooden wagon made moaning sounds from the wood being bent under his grip as hi put his left arm which was the bone arm in the center of the wagons threshold and lifted it over his head .
Terren hoped that this would not get him in trouble for vandalizing another's property so instead of destroying it he decided just moving the wagon to another location close by would be better if not funner for what he had in mind so without even a grunt Terren as gently as he could tossed the wagon on top of one of the 2 story buildings landing the wagon on all of its wheels without having it drop its load for a hilarious sight of a wagon sitting on top of a roof . Terren then looked over to the cat wondering what he was going to say now as his red hair unnaturally moved in the back flowing with unnatural energies .

Corvus simply watched, instead of the man retorting, he instead decided to take the advice of the cat. Then came the power, which was actually quite impressive.
As the audience around them gasped, Corvus couldn't help but start a small clapping group who applauded the work of the strong but silent midget.
"Well then, can't argue with results. I'll bite, how much we talking about here up front?" His services might come in handy down the road, and his small house could always house one more. If not, the beggars always appreciated company.

Terren was still silent for a second as he looked to Crovus wondering if he was being serious but Terren didn't seem to be doing a good job and this cat was the only one who looked at his flyer . Terren then spoke and his voice didn't help identify his gender as he said " I want a place to call home opportunities to gain rank and time to myself for 3 hours once a week " Terren did not want much relay but this person was the only one offering so it seemed he was more at his mercy than Terren's .
Terren didn't mind being the center of attention he had time to get adapted to being gawked at stared at insulted and it did feel nice to be applauded which was one thing he missed from his troupe .
Terren's hair was still moving and flowing in a unnatural way and the large blade mounted behind his hip looked to be almost as large as he was tall but possibly off by six inches and it looked amazingly heavy .

Corvus arched an eyebrow in curiosity. Surprising that he would not ask for more than a home and advancement opportunities, or for more information on why he was being hired. Of course he already knew part of that.
Corvus, being a man of opportunity, reached out his hand to seal the preliminary agreement. "We have reached an agreement, details pending of course. I do like to have things in writing after all. I own a small flat house over by the market district. Meet me there after the festival and we can go over the details." The man would get everything he wanted, of course, but the cat had a few details he wanted to finalize before they were officially partners.

Terren was relieved someone was actualy interested in his services, but what did the mysterious stranger have in mind? Either way, a place to call home was a place to call home, and it was about time that he stopped being picky and went with what would be best for himself, and this man was offering to compensate his needs. Terren moved over to follow this man to hear his terms. Terren was curious as he asked, "Details?" This was starting to get a bit interesting off to the very start.
Terren would gather most of his things after their chat and hopefully in time for him to miss the merchant whose wagon was now on a roof. Terren then would be hopeful that this was not a hoax and he would finaly have somthing to do with his spare time.

Corvus quickly snatched up one of Terren's flyers, pulling out a small writing utensil and writing down the rough directions to his house, using the fountain of Hyrule market as a starting point.
"That should get you where you need to go. As for details, we have much to discuss, man to man. I think you'll be intrigued at what I have to offer." Corvus gave him a sly smile, wondering to himself just how agreeable this man was going to be.
"I'll let you finish up here. And I will see you after the festival. You have yourself a wonderful day sir." He gave Terren a short bow and then was off back into the crowds, gone.
