our intro begins as...
A traveler walks down an empty road. He clutches his cloak tighter to protect himself from the stinging wind and bitter cold of this dark winter night. he knows he must find shelter soon or be caught in the storm quickly approaching. the man sees a small tavern on the outskirts of the nearby town. as he passes through the doorway he finds that the cold from outside has become a distant memory in the face of the warmth inside. the man takes a seat at one of the many empty tables and signals to the barmaid that he would like a drink and a meal. as the warmth from the nearby hearth works its way into his chilled bones the man starts to relax, suddenly he feels a tug on his coin purse! with reflexes born from living years on the street the man turns and catches the would be thief. to his surprise it was a girl! and a young one at that! she couldn't have been more than 11 by the looks of her! though he could see that the girl already showed the signs of becoming a beautiful woman, if she lived that long... in the firelight he could see that she had ragged reddish auburn hair. it had been hacked short, probably did it herself with a knife. the child had the deepest, piercing green eyes the man had ever seen and her skin was tanned from long hours in the sun. the man pulled back his hood revealing a face that was average but a smile (when he chose to do so) that lit up the rest so that upon seeing it you couldn't deny that he was handsome.
ok... thats the intro, its up to all of us to see where this goes... mid evil style fantasy setting...

"are you trying to get m'money little lady," he said amused by the gasp she gave as he held her wrist firmly.
the coin purse dropped to the ground and her eyes widened only to find out that there were just pieces of metal shavings scattered on the floor.
" funny ain't it --- i don't keep my money in obvious places," then he winked at her. this caused her to redden and veer her gaze away from him.
"i---i," she was too afraid to say an apology --- too afraid or was it too ashamed of herself to mouth anything? but to spare her from this shame, as it was a lucky night for him to find shelter anyways, he said he would treat her to a meal.

the man looks a bit hesitantly at her. he thinks to himself that she would more than likely get in the way but for a strange reason he feels drawn to her and until he can sort out the reason fate has brought them together... the man finds himself unable to tell her no. "all right." he says, "i will take you with me" and he hoped he would not regret it for he had not told her everything and would not have to, he prayed to which ever of the old gods were listening at the moment. he stood, "my name is jon raggums. come, there is a room upstairs with a bed for you to sleep in". they head upstairs and the girl falls into the bed yelping when she sinks into it. when the girl was settled and sleeping the man pulled up a chair to the door and fell into a light sleep.
