Coventina
This wasn't the least entertaining venture Coventina had taken on. The Countess of Oak - still named, at the time - did little that didn't directly benefit her, let alone served to the benefit of anyone else; but she had been right in her call to scour the corpses of these legal guilds for contracts like carrion crow after nuggets of gold. Something shiny would always catch her eye. She had already marked a few targets: it had become something of a rarity for dark guilds like her Phantom Lord to take on 'light' mages in the current times of the Rune Knight's extreme prominence, but that didn't mean there wasn't still money to be found. What? She was hardly above murder for her goals. She ate people. A little headhunting was barely a distraction from the vacation she had taken in the Hosenka hot springs. She yearned for home, for quiet, for darkness and sultry whispers between goblets filled with blood.

This would be her last night here. Simple enough. She waved away the criminal element who directed her toward one problem & another; find a swarm of Salamanders that had taken to infesting one of the springs, an oddly recurrent problem in the season, and take down the legal mage who took on the same bounty. This would allow them to claim the greater reward for themselves and free up space for their various activities as Blue Pegasus and Fairy Tail had both begun to clear out, leaving very little of notoriety in terms of competition.

She'd fit on silken gloves of striking red, tightening them at her forearm with a sleek pull down, and considered herself handled of any chance to be found in the aftermath. It served equally to hide her guild emblem; it helped to lay the blame elsewhere. She'd smile in the cold air - or at least her approximation of one, never quite brightening any aspect save the curiosities that bubbled in gems of topaz, a molten edge to silent murderous intent that smelt them near-red. It wouldn't take long to stride under starlight toward the case of these baskervillian pests, no hounds to worry, and ...

Vesper
Vesper had made more than enough precious memories in his time in Hosenka, a blessing in the gift given by his guild, Blue Pegasus. An adorable best friend in Briar that felt almost destined, a red string of fate leashed around his pinky that would always draw him back to the little bunny's side. He would spend the most time with Briar, but he would make excursions on his own, participating in some of the activities that his friend wasn't quite as enthused about. Vesper was blessed again by the oddly chaotic creature that called himself Momo; a masquerade in the roles assigned, but Vesper was still delighted by the loving aura displayed in return to his princely vow and brotherly bond.

Today would be one of those such tasks on the docket that would leave Vesper to his own devices. It only felt right to give back to the place that bore witness to such wonderful memories. His trip would be coming to a close soon enough and so, he decided to help the inn with a pest problem. Vesper was a sentimental creature through and through. A hand raises, tidying his vest and straightening the tie fastened so securely around his neck. He was dressed regally, a testament to his dedication to presenting his best so regardless of the situation, just as his guild teaches. His clothes adhere to his skin, the tepidness of the spring, sweltering droplets clinging to the exposed fairness of his frame.

A pink in his cheeks that reminisces on his meeting with Briar as if it were in the nostalgic past. He shakes it off, gauntlets creaking with the strain of his fists clenching. Vesper fastens the leather straps and ponders a moment. He was almost positive that another was to join him on this hunt, but they were still nowhere to be found under the luminary spotlight shining down upon the open-aired oasis.

Rubies glisten, breaching the misty murk; the opaque shroud surrounding the penumbra. The soft patter of footsteps lacing the stillness of sitting water, a ripple in every stride and click of heels. Vesper's ears would perk up, tail wagging in anticipation of his new ally and potential friend. "Good evening! Vesper Lovera, at your service~ I'm a mage with Blue Pegasus" He would bow, arms folded in front with a timid jitter, a flutter of his heart. "It's a pleasure to work with you~"

Coventina
A strange vibration in the air. It rippled past her from its source, sound-waves that hit her mind before her ears could catch up with the meaning behind them. It was as if time slowed in the span of no more than a passing second, claiming with it a sluggish sense and a sudden tiredness to her bones. "Oh," was her initial response, turning her head on its slow axis to fall with a gently sloped gaze on this singularity. Anomalous. This isn't how this was meant to play out. She roamed the little boy with carnelian, his general disposition burning them to sunstone and forcing her eyes to blink and look away again.

Well, fuck. Her hands were brought up to cross under her bodice, holding firmer to her chest, and she mused her line of sight off into the distance before willing her feet to move in their usual unbothered cadence. She'd cut closer to this Vesper, the cusp of her high cheekbones balancing out the briefly withering look in her eyes from alarming him. It took a few seconds longer - running inexplicable calculations in her head of just how to navigate this mess - only to loose all tension from her laced shoulders, her lips lifting in a half-smile she'd then offer to him. "Hello, Vesper Lovera," came a voice as soft as the satin it spilled from, her lips redder under the moonlight.

She'd lean, a curtain of black falling across her bangs, and her eyes would close to an ascent that left her expression pleasant and welcoming for the boy. Her hand stretched out, gently brushing back his hair, and patted him on the head. "My name is Coventina. While I'm unaffiliated, I assure you ... you can count on me. We'll do our bests, won't we?" Her eyes opened to a half-lid, bestowing a clear amber to clear all concerns from his own timid view. She stroked down the side of his head, ruffling off before lifting her hand away and curling her fingers beneath her chin. "You'll stick close to Auntie. Yes?" She wasn't leaving his safety up for debate; and her chagrin was tucked away in the disrhythm of her undead heart, having already concluded how this evening would go.

She'd hold her right hand out to him while turning to lead them both inside. "I'm told there's a nest inside. I believe this means we should expect multiple active targets. Are you ready, my dear?"
