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 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?)
Charlotte chuckles quietly, “Unfortunately I don’t have any grand reason or backstory to tell you.” She answered as her head lifted to gaze upon the dark sky, “I simply..wished for more. More than a farmer in Falstoner lands, though I am deeply interested in nature and such but..” She struggles to continue, fumbling over some intangible words, “I don’t know. A-And not that I hated my home town, life was peaceful, great and I had my loved ones with me and that was more than anyone could ever ask for.” She hesitates, fingers tapping the worn wood of the wagon. “I’d heard tales of the Southern Reach—wild, untouched lands since the Aedall vanished. Stories of the Great Disappearance spoke of empty villages and mysteries hiding in the woods. Who wouldn’t be curious? We used to whisper about it by firelight, imagining treasures or curses left behind. I suppose that’s part of it, too. I wanted to see something for myself.”
She finally finished answering, although there were some bits and pieces she left out, she didn’t feel the need to unload all that on this poor stranger. She has loved ones, and she loved them dearly, but because of her condition, her family…didn’t let her do much, or anything at all. It was suffocating, and unbearable and miserable, she could do more, but at the same time it felt like an impossible goal. And she doesn’t even know what her goal was, so she…may or may not have snuck into the middle of the night, left a note and yeah..
