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?)
Countess smiled softly at the older woman, leaning in as well to answer her question. "Well to be honest with you ma'am, I'm here on a personal search. See, my siblings and I are travelling to the Reach because we recently learned our mother was here. We come from The Wall, where we were trained as warriors and eventually taken on as knights. I suppose being a partial Greatling had them enamored by our potential prowess."
"Our mother was separated from us not long ago, and searching for her took some time as she no longer goes by the same name. However, when we heard she was at the Spire we came as quick as we could. Honestly though?" She chuckled, crossing her legs and folding her hands in her lap. "I'm also partially here on selfish motives. See the Spire's late discovery after Aedall's disappearance and its intriguing structure led me to believe there are interesting ongoings happening within the Reach."
"I've also heard the fable of Divine Gardeners and as someone like myself who's very caring for and knowledgeable in the world of nature, it highly intrigues me that something like this may exist. I intend to seek out such a fable myself and verify its integrity. Perhaps try and secure it for myself, if it's true. Oh- Don't let me ramble on, apologies. To put it simply, Im a knight traveling with her siblings to reconnect with family and investigate a few different things that pique my interest."
