"Did you know each other? Seemed to. Not in a good way. No no no. Too much screaming and murder for that. Attempted, at least. Fortunately, of course. There," Peter said, removing his hands. The wound was almost completely healed, little more than an ugly red line across her skin. Suddenly realizing how much skin she was showing, Peter flushed and looked to her face.

"Something? Mentioned family, must be that. Strange, though. Attacked without warning. Something about the town. But! Couldn't have been the wizard. too young. Too inexperienced. Another survivor? Doubtful. Why attack? Conundrum. Still, tried to kill you. Seems you're in danger. Still, that is," Peter observed.
Max stood straight and rigidly before the judicial might of Goldshire. This force of order currently consisted of the inside of the squat, stone guardhouse, the head of the Goldshire guard behind his large desk clearly designed to intimidate newcomers, and the two guards who had brought him. The smell of damp straw from the cells down the hall filled the air pungently, and Max wrinkled his nose at the stench. He knew such holdings would not be for him. As they had since he arrived, his eyes trailed to his satchel on the desk, and the effects within.
His attention snapped back to the head of the guard, an old man with a bald head, thick moustache, and tendency to squint which implied the need for, but refusal of glasses. The man harrumphed and frowned as he began to list off the charges. "Seems you've been busy since arriving, boy. Assault with a deadly weapon. Attempted murder. Drawing a sword in city limits without expressing the intent to duel. Public endangerment. And finally, attempted murder! Well young man," the captain asked harshly, leaning forward imposingly. "What do you have to say about all this?"
"Stools make shockingly good barriers."
The captain's moustache bristled with annoyance.
"I can see you're eager to visit the Stockades. Men!" he barked, looking up to the pair of guards who stiffened to attention at once. "Take him to Stormwind. Keep him bound, and gag him for good measure. He has the looks of a magic user. Hand him over to the Stockade. Give the warden this." The captain passed a rolled scroll the the guard. "He'll do the rest. Dismissed!"
Max did not resist as he was led away roughly by the guards towards the stables. The young man scowled darkly.
The bastards had kept his apples.

"Ah, yes. Weapon would help. Security in armaments. Sense of power. Yes. Oh!" Peter said in realization. "However. Problem, presents itself. Do you have money? Perhaps? Don't carry a gun. Mace only. Otherwise...not so much."

"Ah. I see..." Peter trailed off thoughtfully. "Have some money, admittedly. Not enough, though. Guns are expensive. Good ones. Need weapon, and ammunition as well. Costly overall...Job!" the young priest abruptly and excitedly exclaimed. "Yes. Could get a job. Er, task. Quest. Mission with objective. Small one, temporary. Earn some money, earn weapon maybe. May even find one, if look in right places."

"Parts? A gunsmith, at your age?" Peter asked in surprise. "No, maybe knows a gunsmith. Pro bono publicio work? Possible," the priest mused, half to himself.

Peter shook himself. "Yes. Right, parts. Parts for a gun. From scratch? Or perhaps repairs. Latter doubtful. What did you need?"

"Stock? yes, wooden. Often oak. Good for absorbing shock. Wait! have notes. A book. A moment." Peter pulled his pack off. Quickly rummaging through it, he produced a notebook filled with sketches of guns and the likes. It was all technical knowledge, however. Clearly copied from another book, with content but not necessarily personal context understood.

"Hmm...Yes, could be a problem. Materials hard to gather. But not raw around here...Could potentially gather them ourselves. Would need the right ones. But, might be able to gather them about here. Heard of mines. Logging. Mechanists. Stormwind auction houses.
"But...assuming you would want me to come. Presumptuous. Should have taken your feelings...into account. Sorry," Leo meekly informed Irene.

"Would like to accompany you, that is to say. You might need some healing. N-not to say you need it. Not accident prone. Er, gets injured often, though. Only known you for less than a day, foolish supposition, sorry. But, would like to accompany you. Should ask. Straight out. Might I...ac-company, you?" Peter asked, finishing weakly and flushing slightly for stuttering.

Peter smiled brightly, fairly shaking in happiness. "Thank you. Appreciate opportunity. Will be glad to travel with you. Haven't seen much of the world. Looking forward to it. Glad to find traveling companion. Someone I can trust. Should be able to trust you. Haven't given cause not to. Said that out loud. Mistake. Rude. Sorry. Apologize too much, probably. Sorry. There it is again. Have to stop. So, gun? Should study map. Have some here. What kind of barrel? You know best. Seem to. A moment, maps. Maps...maps...Maps!" Peter cried triumphantly, emerging from his pack with several map cases. He picked out the one with Elwynn written on the side, only to pause.
Only then did he realize they were still something of the center of attention. Between Irene's tattered clothes, the scene from earlier, and the current discussion, many an eye were fixed on them.
"Maybe...should go back to the room," Peter ventured.
