In-Character
Read the following prompt:
The rhythmic lull of hoofbeats are a marching drum to the small group of pioneers and variety of folk you have found yourself amongst, packed into a wobbling wagon. The rolling plains of the Southern Reach and a clear sky stretch out all around you, the buzz of excited chatter a dull wash in your ears as your mind strays to your former life and what has led you here to new lands.
“Nervous?”
You blink, returning to the present moment. A kindly older woman sat near you is smiling warmly with a crinkle to her eyes.
“I can tell it’s your first time. Still remember mine,” she flashes a grin and leans in.
“Tell me my dear, why have you come to the Reach?”
How do you respond (in character)? (250 word minimum - please make sure to include at least three references to our lore in your response, with two coming from different pages in the Compendium. Two of the three selected should also be in-depth, avoid simply name-dropping lore terms. Tie the terms into your character's backstory. Why are they important to them?)

She started pacing around “they are not quite spiritual folks. . . .OH did you know that they have Matriarchy rather than patriarchy?
“No. . .i did not. . .. continue speaking” gesturing to her as she nodded in response
“Woaen are the one leading families and communities, NOT MEN” she raised her voice on the last verse.
The Uncle kept nodding “and where are they exactly?”
She rolled her eyes “tsk, you don't know? In the mountains of course! You're a greatling you should know this “ she said playfully
“No i do not” snarled back the elderly greatling back at her “ ive been . . .. taken away, lived most of my life as a Farmer in a far away lands and now that i have arrived back. . . .i wish to know my people”
She looked at him intrigued “hmmmm maybe you should visit the spire, juuuuust to rest a bit before you continue on your travels”
“The spire?. . .hmmmm alright, anything else you wish to tell me before i depart?”
“Ah yes. .. . .what happened to . . .. you?” she asked carefully as he gestured towards his faint burned scars

The elderly woman stood up swiftly!
“Do not go to the ashlands”
“. .. . okayyyyyy. . . .. “ after hearing that he leaves BUT before he is able the woman screams “OH also watch out for the dunkbears!” she jested.
