She had been fast asleep, when suddenly yelling and a commotion had awoken her from her much needed slumber. Which resulted in her reacting to her instincts and she was no longer asleep, but was suddenly up and on her feet with her hands on her weapons, ready to fight. But for her to see that the rucuss was already resolved, by the same man with the red hair from earlier. She was impressed, a slight smirk on her face as she saw how he easily handled the situation that had landed in his lap. She listened to him talk about in need of a job, of certain varieties, which caused her interest to be peaked. So he is a mercenary....No...He isn't here for me, is he? No...Or he would have caused a scuffle earlier, right? Hm... thoughts swirled in her head like an endless cyclone, thoughts going in every way, then merging and emerging at every counter she could have thought of. But just in case he was here for her, she kept her right hand close by to her weapon, unsure of the man's intentions. He seemed to be there for innocent work, but possibly it was a cover, or simply the truth. In case it was the former, she wasn't willing to take any chances, the sooner she could get out of the town, the better.
Aetrius shook her head and stood up, pondering on what her next course of action should be, when suddenly a man stumbled into her drunkily, knocking her off and over the wood pile she was standing next to. Which only resulted in seething anger to fill her, as no one, not even a drunk should have been able to push her over so easily. She swiftly jumped to her feet, grabbed the man by the collar of his shirt and looked him in the eyes as she spoke, "Who do you think you are, eh? Knocking random by standers over like they're nothing?" she said angrily as her griip around his shirt tightened. The man looked at her in both surprise and fear, as he was highly intoxicated and wasn't in a clear mind. "Ey, look ladie. I wash just passin' trew, eh? I meant nottin' by it, okey?" his words slurred together like a mess of mud and sludge from the back end of a used horse stable. "Just watch where you're going next time, eh? Could have resulted far worse if you had bumped into some one else, kapeesh? Just go home and sober up already, alright?" she said as she let go of the man, having him land in the streets carelessly as she walked past him in annoyance and in a sense, a bit angered. Hoping not much of a scene was created by her small interference, she put her hood back up and mounted her horse, and strode off down the main street, back to originally from where she was, mask in hand that was hidden by her robe. As she exited the inner part of the town, she for just a moment made eye contact with the woman from before, and gave her a slight nod, a small sign of respect and acknowledgement, but before she decided to make her own way around the town, she spoke to the girl, "Pardon me, but do you know where the closest place to stay would be? Not looking for a place for the night, just some place for a few hours, if that. Mainly for my steed...." she kept her head low as she spoke, keeping the majority of her face unseen by the other woman.
