A young human of about sixteen walks into the tavern. He has dark brown hair and eyes, and his skin is tan, as if he's spent a long time out in the sun. He wears a simple tunic, and a silver knife hangs at his side. Despite the chaos of the tavern, he seems calm and composed.

Seeker nods to them "Hello, there"

He turns his head, not seeming worried or even interested in her unusual appearance. "Hello. Who are you?" He says every word clearly and calmly, without rushing or slurring any syllables.

"You may call me Keerse. And yours?" Strange calming voice stuff, yadda yadda, you know this already

"You can call me Chase."

"Hello, Chase. What brings you to a place such as this?"

"What do you think? Food. A place to sleep. This is a tavern, right?"

"Yes. But to a few, it seems something slightly more"

"You're going to have to be a little less vague."

"Some see the people more than the place. Some use it as more a base of operations. Some use it to hide"

"Which one are you?"

Astara stares at it in confusion. "What are you?"

"I'm...well...Good question." The drone looks like it's thinking for a moment. "But I do know that I'm here to be like a companion of sorts for you!"

"What's your name?"

"Another great question! I don't really have one, but it's alright." The drone's tone is optimistic and joyful. "What's yours? Or are you like me? We could be nameless buddies!"

"My name is Astara. What do you know?"

"Hello, Astara! What do I know about myself? Well, I know I have the power of the Light and can resurrect one being to be...like a...harbinger of Light? Like, someone that's willing to, uh, fight for and protect things that are good. Like sandwiches. And puppies." The drone then seems to get a bit more timid. "When you die, I resurrect you but all your memories will be gone prior to your first resurrection. It's apart of this "Fresh Start" thingy, but I dunno. What if we become best friends? I don't want to lose that...I guess on the plus side, you get cool powers, but still."

"I... I don't know if I could live like that. Knowing nothing. Is life really worth it if you don't know who you are? If you don't know your friends, your regrets, the people you love? If you don't recognize your own face in the mirror?"

"That's what I'm saying!" The drone exclaims. "I think there's a way for you to learn bits about who you are. Like if you had a diary, or saw a picture that meant something to you. It would probably be like fragments or puzzle pieces. Look, I know it doesn't sound appealing, but regardless, I'm still going to be your buddy through and through. You're my Chosen!" The drone nuzzles against Astara's cheek. "I chose you because I know that regardless of whether or not you knew who you were, you would choose to do what is right. If I had arms, I'd hug you right now."

"You've never met me. How can you pretend like we're best friends? Like you know who I am?"

"I don't know. All I know is that you're a good person. Which is why I chose you. It's...honestly kind of fuzzy. I just remember thinking of multiple someones until you crossed my mind. I got to see what was in your heart and that's how I made my decision."

"What was in my heart?"

"Aw, you're making me blush!" The drone sounds a little flustered. "I saw the devotion you have. The bravery you have. The pain of all the sacrifices you've made. I know I'm not supposed to choose non-living beings...but you're the exception. You have the Traveler's Light in you!"

"What do you mean, you're not supposed to choose non-living beings?"

"I'm supposed to choose beings that are already dead. I think part of that has to do with what you said earlier. Maybe...it's different when you're still alive. Maybe I can..."

The Tavern Mother (Trust me, it's not as weird as it sounds!)

I am the God-Queen of Trickery, Cunning, Lies, and Gaslighting- but you already knew that...
"Moon's Haunted." *Cocks shotgun with malicious intent*
"Eliksni must rise...yes?"

"And what would that entail?" Astara seems a bit skeptical.

"I'm...well...Good question." The drone looks like it's thinking for a moment. "But I do know that I'm here to be like a companion of sorts for you!"

"What's your name?"

"Another great question! I don't really have one, but it's alright." The drone's tone is optimistic and joyful. "What's yours? Or are you like me? We could be nameless buddies!"

"My name is Astara. What do you know?"

"Hello, Astara! What do I know about myself? Well, I know I have the power of the Light and can resurrect one being to be...like a...harbinger of Light? Like, someone that's willing to, uh, fight for and protect things that are good. Like sandwiches. And puppies." The drone then seems to get a bit more timid. "When you die, I resurrect you but all your memories will be gone prior to your first resurrection. It's apart of this "Fresh Start" thingy, but I dunno. What if we become best friends? I don't want to lose that...I guess on the plus side, you get cool powers, but still."

"I... I don't know if I could live like that. Knowing nothing. Is life really worth it if you don't know who you are? If you don't know your friends, your regrets, the people you love? If you don't recognize your own face in the mirror?"

"That's what I'm saying!" The drone exclaims. "I think there's a way for you to learn bits about who you are. Like if you had a diary, or saw a picture that meant something to you. It would probably be like fragments or puzzle pieces. Look, I know it doesn't sound appealing, but regardless, I'm still going to be your buddy through and through. You're my Chosen!" The drone nuzzles against Astara's cheek. "I chose you because I know that regardless of whether or not you knew who you were, you would choose to do what is right. If I had arms, I'd hug you right now."

"You've never met me. How can you pretend like we're best friends? Like you know who I am?"

"I don't know. All I know is that you're a good person. Which is why I chose you. It's...honestly kind of fuzzy. I just remember thinking of multiple someones until you crossed my mind. I got to see what was in your heart and that's how I made my decision."

"What was in my heart?"

"Aw, you're making me blush!" The drone sounds a little flustered. "I saw the devotion you have. The bravery you have. The pain of all the sacrifices you've made. I know I'm not supposed to choose non-living beings...but you're the exception. You have the Traveler's Light in you!"

"What do you mean, you're not supposed to choose non-living beings?"

"I'm supposed to choose beings that are already dead. I think part of that has to do with what you said earlier. Maybe...it's different when you're still alive. Maybe I can..."

"Maybe you can what?"

"Imbue you with the powers of the Light!"

"And what would that entail?" Astara seems a bit skeptical.

"Well, either it would work and you get powers and stuff or it doesn't work and you stay the same." The drone chirps. "If it works, then reviving you will keep you memories intact!"

A young human of about sixteen walks into the tavern. He has dark brown hair and eyes, and his skin is tan, as if he's spent a long time out in the sun. He wears a simple tunic, and a silver knife hangs at his side. Despite the chaos of the tavern, he seems calm and composed.

Seeker nods to them "Hello, there"

He turns his head, not seeming worried or even interested in her unusual appearance. "Hello. Who are you?" He says every word clearly and calmly, without rushing or slurring any syllables.

"You may call me Keerse. And yours?" Strange calming voice stuff, yadda yadda, you know this already

"You can call me Chase."

"Hello, Chase. What brings you to a place such as this?"

"What do you think? Food. A place to sleep. This is a tavern, right?"

"Yes. But to a few, it seems something slightly more"

"You're going to have to be a little less vague."

"Some see the people more than the place. Some use it as more a base of operations. Some use it to hide"

"Which one are you?"

"Partially the first. Partially my own thing"

"Oh. What thing?"

"I have.. Business. Some I may need a bit if help or knowledge in. Knowledge can come quite a bit from observation"

"What knowledge are you looking for?"

"Some about certain people."

"People who you don't get along with?"

It would probably be like fragments or puzzle pieces. Look, I know it doesn't sound appealing, but regardless, I'm still going to be your buddy through and through. You're my Chosen!"

A young human of about sixteen walks into the tavern. He has dark brown hair and eyes, and his skin is tan, as if he's spent a long time out in the sun. He wears a simple tunic, and a silver knife hangs at his side. Despite the chaos of the tavern, he seems calm and composed.

A young human of about sixteen walks into the tavern. He has dark brown hair and eyes, and his skin is tan, as if he's spent a long time out in the sun. He wears a simple tunic, and a silver knife hangs at his side. Despite the chaos of the tavern, he seems calm and composed.

Seeker nods to them "Hello, there"

He turns his head, not seeming worried or even interested in her unusual appearance. "Hello. Who are you?" He says every word clearly and calmly, without rushing or slurring any syllables.

"You may call me Keerse. And yours?" Strange calming voice stuff, yadda yadda, you know this already

"You can call me Chase."

"Hello, Chase. What brings you to a place such as this?"

"What do you think? Food. A place to sleep. This is a tavern, right?"

"Yes. But to a few, it seems something slightly more"

"You're going to have to be a little less vague."

"Some see the people more than the place. Some use it as more a base of operations. Some use it to hide"

"Which one are you?"

"Partially the first. Partially my own thing"

"Oh. What thing?"

"I have.. Business. Some I may need a bit if help or knowledge in. Knowledge can come quite a bit from observation"

"What knowledge are you looking for?"

"Some about certain people."

"People who you don't get along with?"

"One that I cant. The others are people she lies to"

"Who is she?"

"A medusa who has murdered and kidnapped. Multiple of her victims were people I knew"

"Did you know her, before? Or is it a coincidence?"

She thinks a moment "I knew her"
