17th Oath of Moment:: A blooding

[lunawolves10th]

1 [ (Locked to Saber and Mordred) A man in a strange white bodyglove walks up to 460 stone street, carrying several blades of various sizes, and knocks on the door. Garviel's here to be a secondary teacher for Mordred. ]

2 [ Phones, filtered to the resistance and associated organizations. ] Loken here. I wanted to check in after the recent

[ooeeooahah]

[ There is someone sitting on a bench near the lake, seeming to ignore him, but for a quiet question: ]

Something in the lake offended you?

[lunawolves10th]

No. [ He says, matter of factly, not curtly or coldly, just he wasn't offended by the lake at all. ]

[ooeeooahah]

[ She nods. ]

Then I'd say your spirit was carrying a large box of rocks.

[ She waits a few moments before continuing. ]

Do you feel like unloading some of it?

[lunawolves10th]

I do not believe in spirits or fanes. Nor do I trust them. But I think you mean my conscience.

[ He looks at her for confirmation

4!

[A familiar orange wolf pads over and brushes her side against Garviel's leg as she stops next to him. A glance up tells her something's going on in his mind, but she decides to stay silent and look across the water with him.]

[lunawolves10th]

Ah. A wolf for a wolf. [ He kneels beside her, but speaks no further after his initial greeting, looking out across the water for about 5 minutes before finally saying. ]

There was very little open water on my world of birth, Cthonia. It was all cold cavern-cities in the remains of ancient, abandoned mines.

[fatefullfriend]

[She'll sit once her kneels and looks over at him.]

Mid-Childa is a lush land not unlike Earth. Forests, lakes, mountains... We wolves called the mountains home. Was it unusual on Cthonia to venture to the surface?

[lunawolves10th]

Not as such, just that the subhive gangers who I grew up with, and was, in fact, born to, didn't make it up the spires much. There were manufactoriums and huge clouds of waste and pollutant topside, but it was warmer there, and the people were richer, or so I'd been told.

[doudemoe]

Pretty well.

All the mushrooms seem to have disappeared.

[lunawolves10th]

So I have noticed. I fear I may have relived some memories that were... rather traumatic for anyone else who was nearby me during that time. [ And by traumatic he means possibly fatal. ]

[doudemoe]

Seems like a favorite pastime for this place.

[lunawolves10th]

Aye. Did the same thing happen to you?

[shapechanger]

Hey, yeah. I'll take the tofu burger with some soy cheese. And chocolate milkshake. Almond milk.

[None of that is on the menu.]

Re: 3

[lunawolves10th]

I am afraid we don't have any of that. I don't even know what most of that is, young ser.

[shapechanger]

...You've gotta have tofu dogs, at least.

[lunawolves10th]

All of our dogs are made of meat, and we don't serve people dogs, that would be cruel!

[Hiling walks up to the edge of the lake, side-eyeing that big guy over there. Tossing a rock in, it makes a satisfying splash.]

Hm, it's probably too cold to go swimming.

[lunawolves10th]

I had not thought to swim. [ he looks at the tiny girl. ]

I do not believe we have met before, mamzel?

[prideinbattle]

No. And you are?

[She's wondering what he is just as much as who.]

[lunawolves10th]

I am Garviel Loken. [ He is somewhat phlegmatic, for the moment. Quiet, even. ]
