BREAKFAST

[ad_aeternitatem]

[Breakfast is a feast: thin strips of venison, fresh tomatoes from the garden, a plethora of foreign berries in all shapes and sizes, and juice made from the fruits from the trees in Lente's orchard. Eat and make merry, residents.]

[He might recognize the voice when she speaks, though. It's pretty distinctive. As is the smile she greets him with, but he wouldn't know that yet.]

Greetings. I hope you have rested well.

[inafadingcrown]

[What's so shocking, man? But now that he's given her a few more words than "hi," she's able to place his voice too.]

John, is it not?

I am glad it was not overly trying for you; the division of the group did trouble me somewhat, but we were hardly in a position to negotiate. [And she'll only say that after very subtly making sure Lente's not in earshot. No point in offending one's host, after all.] For my part, I was quite comfortable.

[inafadingcrown]

And you as well. In truth, there was more discussion than aught else and not as much of as profitable as I would have liked. You missed very little.

[inafadingcrown]

No, nothing of great importance, unfortunately. I believe we will have more opportunity later today.

[ooc: I don't think there is anything, but if I missed something due to computer issues, feel free to assume she told him.]

[inafadingcrown]

[You people and your slang.] Indeed, it would. But I do not think that will be the case, for even if we are told very little, we have already seen much.

[ooc: Don't worry about it!]

[inafadingcrown]

[She really shouldn't talk about confusing people with speech patterns.]

Indeed. I do wonder if they are native only to this world or if they exist elsewhere, but it may well be we will never know.

[inafadingcrown]

You assume that they would be made aware of these things. I know I have little knowledge of the wildlife that has been encountered on expeditions before my arrival, beyond that which posed a large enough threat to merit inclusion in summaries of the trip. Unless such information is made more widely available, it would be difficult for anyone make the necessary identifications.
