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?)
Kalen would’ve been briefly startled despite the kind and gentle tone that the older woman had given her as she was addressed in the wobbly wagon that was destined towards unknown yet exciting new lands for the young sailor to explore. Though much to her surprise, she would nonetheless politely give her utmost attention as she gladly smiled whilst setting her red lush hair aside behind her rounded ears that display and resemble distinct human features as she spoke.
“O-Oh! Me?” She’d utter, firstly inquiring if it was her that was asked to which she would opt to shyly ruffle her unruly mane. Giving it a thought as she neutrally shrugged. “I guess you could say that I heard the call of adventure! A whisper of potential unknowns eagerly awaiting to be found and told about!” She'd utter whilst she gestured her hands as if words rang with bombastic enthusiasm which was quite a contrast from her shown shy posture just a moment ago. Catching herself though, She regains her polite recline of her form before she clears her throat. “Sorry, I…I-I guess you could say I am a little excited from, err..being away from Home.” She'd explain as she hummed. “Small village by the coast of the Mist Isles, You see, Just short of Marionsport. Eventually you've come to see it all, yearn to see more of what goes beyond the ocean’s horizon and not just by a small window where you could barely get a glimpse.” She'd say almost reminiscing of her room back home. “I've, had some folks who travel back from their lives and share some stories of both old and new and thought, Hey. I too want to go and find something miniscule or world trending. Share it to my folks back home before coming right back to find more!”
Adapting a rather embarrassed posture now as her mane recesses back to where her bangs were, She chuckles almost nervously as she lowered her volume but a tad. Almost as if telling a secret as she revealed but a necklace of importance that was clasped around her neck
“But for me and me alone, I want to venture and perhaps share my findings, adventures and experiences to the Siren Serene.” She'd utter, Speaking of the fabled as if it was truly something to admire. “Sure, I don't think I'll come to find them myself. But the waves I ebbed and flowed on the way here says otherwise, it's as if they’ve guided me here safely.” She'd confess with a mirthful chuckle. “What better way to return their kindness with what I've seen beyond their waters?”
Kalen then waves off her rather unlikely scenario happening, laughing it off as she shook her head. “But enough of a girl’s rambles and moon shooting goals and her wobbly introductions. I'm Kalen, What brought /you/ to the reach?”
