[If she wants to wield something heavier than a short sword, she has to collect a tuft of chocobo down that isn't yellow? Isn't that... Completely reasonable and expected?She's from a Sierra game after all. Ellie, as she's called, did not balk or question the significance of such a hunt, where many others might consider it frivolous. Besides, she has someone to work with, and new sources of information and possible allies are always useful. Of course, she has nothing more than a name and a meeting, so she's not sure who she's going to get.]
[Ellie keeps her hood down, the sun shining on her glossy blonde hair as she waits patiently near the town gates, short sword at her hip, bow slung over her shoulder. She's not a particularly tall woman, but there's a certain strength and confidence in the way she holds herself. She's a skilled fighter, and as such, doesn't expect too much difficulty in the task at hand unless her companion is a useless idiot.]
[Which could happen.]
[Upon seeing someone part from the crowd to walk directly toward her, she lifts her head and straightens her posture. When she speaks, there's a light German accent to her dusky voice.]
So you are the one I must travel with, hm? You may call me Ellie.

Enemy Scenario
[You weren't really traveling alone out here, were you? There are worse than monsters to contend with. Walking the dusty road that winds between the trees, you have a distinct feeling of being watched, and carefully at that. Sometimes a stray noise tugs at your senses, a bush that rustles a little too furtively, a tree branch that hangs just a little too low.]
[Rumors of increased brigand activity now seem more real than just idle tavern gossip. They've always been a nuisance, but now the attacks are organized. The brigands are better fighters, using strategy and numbers to overwhelm and rob the unwary that cross into their territory. Looks like you're the next target.]
[Or maybe you came because you were interested in meeting the Brigand Leader personally. Whoever this person is, they seem to have big plans regarding the future of this world. Maybe if you can get involved from the ground up, there could be big rewards for you.]
[Whatever the reason, a man bearing a large shield and a sword moves to stand in your path, and judging by the way he's crouched, you're not going to get past him without a fight.]
