1st Wolf: [Action]

[doomhammered]

[There is a very tall, green, muscular man walking through the roads of Luceti.  He's got the wings and the journal under his arm, so he must be a new feather, but he hasn't yet made use of his journal, it seems.  Despite that, he appears to have a good idea of where he's going, turning right where he needs to go in order to reach the center of

[brb watching you from behind a fountain.]

[doomhammered]

[He doesn't appear to have noticed her, simply continuing on his course towards the equipment shop.]

[jian_wen]

[that's cool. she'll just start to follow you.]

[doomhammered]

[As he's about to enter the shop, he pauses with his hand on the door.]

Come on out, child. I mean you no harm.

[jian_wen]

[river pauses, circles around. moving strangely - not quite as a warrior would; more delicately, as though she didn't want to step on something.]

Hello.

[doomhammered]

Mmmm. Greetings. [He looks down at the tiny little human child, and elects to lower himself to one knee, the better to speak with her.]

My name is Thrall.

[jian_wen]

[she tilts head head, comes a little closer. Seems to be taking his gesture as friendly.]

You have blue eyes.

[doomhammered]

[He blinks in surprise. He'd expected her to comment on his skin first.]

Yes, I do. They're not very common among my people, most have brown.

[jian_wen]

[she nods agreeably.]

My name is River.

[shake hands?]

[doomhammered]

[Indeed! He takes her hand gingerly, not wanting to crush it.]

A pleasure to meet you, River.

[jian_wen]

Gāoxìng jìandào nĭ, Thrall.

[she leans in, and drops her voice conspiratorially.]

We're being watched. Be careful.

[and back to normal volume.]

Who were you speaking to?

[doomhammered]

[He lifts an eyebrow in response to her whisper, but simply nods. Watchers, hmmm? Perhaps these "Malnosso" he's been told of.]

I speak with the spirits, River. They are all around us. It is thanks to their guidance that I reached this place.

[jian_wen]

[she nods again, slowly, but glances around, as though hoping to perhaps see them.]

What do they say?

[doomhammered]

[He holds in a chuckle as what he sees as a display of childish innocence.]

They tell me that we are in a place called "Luceti". They guided me to this village, and now are showing me where my belongings are kept. [He nods at the shop.] If I ask them further questions, they may be convinced to answer.

[jian_wen]

[she is a pretty cute kid, Thrall, but she also might be CRAZY. But let's go with cute for now. She tilts her head, interested at this.]

What did you bring?

[shall we go inside and see?]

Do they play Twenty Questions?

[doomhammered]

Oh, I didn't bring anything. But apparently our captors are kind enough to place some of our items in this building when we arrive... [He walks through the shop for a while, then happens upon his gear.] Such as this.

[He hefts up a massive warhammer with one hand while brushing off a suit of black and gold armor with his other.]

The spirits do not play games. They are very serious.
