The hunter moved with precision in his reindeer form, practically dragging the white-haired woman with him. He knew they could find refuge in the only other tavern in town. It was not the Kraai in hospitality or quality of product, but it was warm and close and safe.
In the worlds outside of Caido, there probably weren't any reindeer walking into bars. If there were, they were only the set-up of some joke. But, in Caido, and particularly in Snowcloak, a reindeer walking into a building did not cause many heads to turn. The door was held open for them by another person looking to enter the tavern, and the face turned pale-white with shock when they saw the woman Noah was bringing in and how she was dressed. Damn, get her in fast, eh? Put her up by the fire! the older, scruffy-looking man that held the door open for them exclaimed.
Noah did not need to be told what to do. His massive body pushed into the tavern, delicate woman in tow. A few other, older, scruffy-looking men quickly got up from their seats before the fire and relinquished them for the woman and the attuned. The hunter stopped before one of the chairs, indicating with his muzzle for her to sit. If, and when, she did, Noah turned his body towards the bar. Two steps with cloven hooves suddenly shifted to a tall, blond man moving to order warm drinks, food, and any blanket that could be used for the stranger.
