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)? (150 words minimum - please make sure to include some references to our lore in your response!)
The sudden words cause Yarrow to blink awake from a light slumber, made even lighter with every pebble that the driver most certainly intentionally drives over if only to make her suffer the cart ride more than she already was. A brief moment of gathering her bearings allows her time to lean back from the old woman invading her personal space, Yarrow's upper lip twitching in distaste. Who in gods name does this woman think she is? The arsa sidhe's stomach churns at the thought of forcing herself to make smalltalk.
"...I am here to... deliver the elderly to retirement homes." She muses out, her eyes staring a little too deeply into the poor woman's own. "You know, to... help them." Yarrow sighs, leaning back into a travel shawl. What's a little white lie here and there...? Yarrow reaches into a pocket removing an aged, already opened letter. She's read it a thousand times, and yet rather frustratingly it's words do not yield any new information. Signed 50 years ago, in 1590 A.C, addressed to her. The woman gulps, gazing out to the slowly approaching spire ahead. There lay the source of her answers, and perhaps, the hope for her lineage.
Character Name: Yarrow Neredas
Character Race: Arsa Sidhe
Character Age: 37
Brief Physical Description:
Bright lavender eyes peer out of rounded spectacles, gazing at the world with a somewhat morbid glint behind their pupils. Yarrow stands at 5'6, short silver hair tied up in a bun behind her head. Spindly arms drape at her stomach while she attempts (and fails) to figure out where to place her hands.
