Mithris is eating a small breakfast.

Chase is in the corner, a pensive expression on his face.

Xorius is looking around the tavern.

Kalnor is doing something in his room. A few strange noises are coming from it

Naivaeliania Ecliren is watching people

Tikalae is asleep

Xorius walks over to her. "Are you looking for someone?"

"Not exactly..." She seems to examine him carefully

"So just studying people, then?"

"You could say that."

"Interesting. Why?"

"Its best to know what creatures, kinds of people, or things are around. Information is the strongest blade, and resilient shield"

"Information can be useful. But there are stronger things."

"Such as?"

"If someone comes at you with a sword, all the knowledge in world doesn't matter, if you don't know how to fight back."

"Knowing how to fight back is knowledge. Its true that exactly what information you have matters, but information still is usually the best thing you can have"

"It doesn't matter if you know every possible move with a sword, if you know the perfect blocks and attacks. When the time comes, just that knowledge won't be enough to actually do it."

She sighs "I know how to fight with a sword. Ive had to practice it for years. Information is all I need now."

"Then why don't you try fighting me? Not lethally, of course. Just a little bit of sparring."

"And... Im just supposed to trust thats actually true?"

"That I won't murder someone for no reason in front of a bunch of powerful beings? Yes, you are."

"A bunch of powerful beings that I dont know."

"Can you trust that several of them would happily dissect me if they had an excuse to do so?"

"That depends on a few factors"

Xorius sighs. "Such as?"

She pauses, realizing she's been talking a lot.

"Surely there has to be more to your story than you're letting on?"

"I mean, I wasn't being too detailed, if that's what you mean."

"Short, terse answers, being intentionally vague, etc. You don't want people knowing to much about you, do you?"

"Not much to tell, honestly. If you want to know, my mother died in childbirth, and my father passed away from the plague."

Scyria winces and mutters something under her breath before replying.

"That... must have been hard. And you grew up on the streets? Where was this, if you don't mind me asking?"

"Only for a year. I lived with my father for most of my life. I honestly can't say what city or region it was, though. I never paid much attention to that. Surviving was more important."

"It wasn't important to know that for survival? What if you had to run, but you didn't know where you were in the first place?"

"I didn't think I'd ever actually leave the city. That was a desperate hope, one that kept me going but that I never expected to reach."

"But you did. How did you get from there to here? I'm trying to understand that, because I don't know how I got here."

"Fell through a portal, I think. I came out of that black wall over there." He points to the End of the World.

"Exactly how far we are, what beings are close enough to intervene, and on how fast you could escape?"

She seems a little uncomfortable about that.

"Only for a year. I lived with my father for most of my life. I honestly can't say what city or region it was, though. I never paid much attention to that. Surviving was more important."

"It wasn't important to know that for survival? What if you had to run, but you didn't know where you were in the first place?"

"I didn't think I'd ever actually leave the city. That was a desperate hope, one that kept me going but that I never expected to reach."

"But you did. How did you get from there to here? I'm trying to understand that, because I don't know how I got here."

"Fell through a portal, I think. I came out of that black wall over there." He points to the End of the World.

"Hmm. I was just running, then I stumbled up to the Tavern. I don't think I came through that wall, though."

"You could be from this world, then, and you just happened to wander here."

"No, where I come from there's a lot of snow. Plus, the constellations are different here. The Five Stars aren't in the sky."

She seems a little uncomfortable about that.

"The Five Stars?"

"The Ascended that I worship. Almost like gods, but they were mortals once. The Fifth Star was a good friend."

Mithris is eating a small breakfast.

Chase is in the corner, a pensive expression on his face.

Xorius is looking around the tavern.

Kalnor is doing something in his room. A few strange noises are coming from it

Naivaeliania Ecliren is watching people

Tikalae is asleep

Xorius walks over to her. "Are you looking for someone?"

"Not exactly..." She seems to examine him carefully

"So just studying people, then?"

"You could say that."

"Interesting. Why?"

"Its best to know what creatures, kinds of people, or things are around. Information is the strongest blade, and resilient shield"

"Information can be useful. But there are stronger things."

"Such as?"

"If someone comes at you with a sword, all the knowledge in world doesn't matter, if you don't know how to fight back."

"Knowing how to fight back is knowledge. Its true that exactly what information you have matters, but information still is usually the best thing you can have"

"It doesn't matter if you know every possible move with a sword, if you know the perfect blocks and attacks. When the time comes, just that knowledge won't be enough to actually do it."

She sighs "I know how to fight with a sword. Ive had to practice it for years. Information is all I need now."

"Then why don't you try fighting me? Not lethally, of course. Just a little bit of sparring."

"And... Im just supposed to trust thats actually true?"

"That I won't murder someone for no reason in front of a bunch of powerful beings? Yes, you are."

"A bunch of powerful beings that I dont know."

"Can you trust that several of them would happily dissect me if they had an excuse to do so?"

"That depends on a few factors"

Xorius sighs. "Such as?"

"Exactly how far we are, what beings are close enough to intervene, and on how fast you could escape?"

"Likely a hundred feet away. And you dismiss the facts that I have a reason to want to stay here, as well as nothing to gain from killing you."

"I dont know your reasons to want to stay"

"This is boring me."

She pauses, realizing she's been talking a lot.

"Surely there has to be more to your story than you're letting on?"

"I mean, I wasn't being too detailed, if that's what you mean."

"Short, terse answers, being intentionally vague, etc. You don't want people knowing to much about you, do you?"

"Not much to tell, honestly. If you want to know, my mother died in childbirth, and my father passed away from the plague."

Scyria winces and mutters something under her breath before replying.

"That... must have been hard. And you grew up on the streets? Where was this, if you don't mind me asking?"

"Only for a year. I lived with my father for most of my life. I honestly can't say what city or region it was, though. I never paid much attention to that. Surviving was more important."

"It wasn't important to know that for survival? What if you had to run, but you didn't know where you were in the first place?"

"The Five Stars?"

"The Ascended that I worship. Almost like gods, but they were mortals once. The Fifth Star was a good friend."

"How did they become so powerful, if they started out as just mortals?"

"They grew in power as mortals, until they could rival several of the weaker gods, but it was when they died that the Creation Star took pity upon them and raised them to be its guardians."
