Laughing Vermont slid Liam another drink.

"On the house, sorry for any insult its just a joke. Anyway, i am never right in my first impressions about people so this isn't really surprising. Alright then, so Neil wants to hear my story, and Leo wanted to meet me, looks like i can kill two birds with one stone here."

Glacing over at the portraits on the wall, two girls and one guy Vermont felt a twinge of sadness, regret and self hate. The same twinge he always felt whenever he thought about that story. Smiling back at his patrons he begun his long tale.

"Okay then, where do i begin, I was born here, went to signal went to Beacon was made the leader of team AZRE, and we graduated in the top third of teams. During a mission i got too confident, thinking all the grimm were dead, and well more showed up. Alot more, more than we could handle, I watched each of my friends and comrades die, i saw them take down countless Grimm, but there were always more to replace the fallen. Eventually all of them were dea, taken down by the numbers, i was all that was left, having been lucky enough to not bear the brunt of the assault. I had to carry my friends back to home,i had to tell their families that i had killed there kids, and i had to watch as their eyes blaimed me and said it was all my fault. Eventually i realised that they wouldn't want me to wallow in my own self pittying hate, so I asked my family for a small loan, i bought this place, and here we are today."

Smiling at his friends Vermont gestured to the pub.

"This place is my labour of love, its my memorial to my friends, thats their pictures over the mantle if you want to take a look. After it all i just decided to be the best bar-owner/Listener/advice giver that i could be. Nothing more nothing less. My stroy isn't very interesting, i made a bad call and i paid for it."

Putting his hands on the bar he took of his glasses and put them in the top pocket of his vest.

"Now then, thats my story, now i want to hear yours. Liam get more sociable and talk."

Winking Vermont poured himself another drink.
