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?)
Upon hearing the second question the red haired fey-touched started to ever so slowly move their head towards the elderly lady, blinking a few more times before cracking a wide smile towards her. "Oh I'm far from nervous! And this wagon goes to the Reach? Interesting." After having spoken Quiin turned their gaze up to the sky for a few short seconds before snapping back to the elderly lady. "That didn't answer your question did it? Well it's a long story" They left a moment of silence seeing if the lady wanted to interupt them but when that didn't happen, they started to talk filled with energy. "So, back when I was a child my ma always gave me advise on everything she saw, although I never listened to it as it all sounded quite dumb to me, after meeting new people she told me that not all will welcome us as a blessing and many would be wary of us due to whatever.. Something with the fey that I don't remember" The shorter fey-touched had fully trailed off with their gaze at this point, perhaps not even talking to the eldery lady near them anymore. "Us Falstoner's travel quite a bit so I barely remember anyone outside of my caravan." They paused for a moment. "Actually I don't even think I remember all within my caravan.." They shook their head clearly not bothered by this fact. "I also don't understand why people would be wary of us because of fey, Sprites just want to play-" They paused for a moment, staring back at the lady. "And who doesn't?" They quickly interupted themselves. "And you should always follow Motes, it's always a fun little surprise to what they bring you!" Quiin's gaze once more trailed off as they continued their story, at some point it should actually answer the elderly lady's question.. right? "Honestly all I think my ma was the only one so focussed on the opinion of others due to our herritage." They shook their head. "But now, just recently I did decide to follow one of her pieces of advise and that was for if I ever got lost from the caravan I should join up with another instead of following some Motes, the other caravans should join up with ours on Faerie's Eve to celebrate, eat food, get drunk and follow traditions. I always struggle finding a secret to tell the lantern though.. I don't keep many" Quiin looked around the wagon now that their story was as good as finished. "By the way.. Did your wagon also get lost from your caravan? I've noticed there's only one.."
