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.

“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.)

Maybe Rulan wants Her favor back..." a rolling gesture of his wrist drew out a small chuckle before his hand dropped into his lap.
"Opportunity, then, I s'pose..." His thoughts fell back into his supposed 'delusions;' the taunts of fabled Nyx. What made him a pariah to his once-Pact, now alone... He had to maintain something of an act, in the effortless lie to this stranger; so he extended his hand to the auld lady gingerly: an offer to shake. "Fo'give m'manners, ma'am. Call me Fisk..."
