"Not great..." He mutters. "That hit hard. I almost wanted to start fighting her."
"Such great self-control." Careme strokes the boy's hair. His hands are warm and textureless. "Many have died from picking a fight."
The shadow gently examines Alty's arm. "Iron burns. Transverse fracture of the middle metacarpal. Minor tissue damage. May I heal you?"

"... What. I was just gonna talk to you since you seem lonely. I try and make a habit of socializing with random strangers. Remind me again, why was I trying to eat you...?"
She shrugs. "No reason. I'm not good with faces. I must be mistaking you for someone else."
*I have to leave earlier than I thought, maybe without notice*

"Alright... Huh. Although... you do seem kinda familiar.... Hmmmm... HMMMMMMM.... HMMMMMMMM.... Eh. I got no idea. Must just have one of those faces!"
The cat offers a paw for a handshake.
"Nice ta' meetcha, stranger! I'm Raolyn."
She shakes the paw. "Sage. I hope this isn't rude, but why are you wearing a hat and suit?"
"Because I want to. Do I have to have another reason?

Her head snaps around backward the instant they manifest, and the rest of her body follows when they speak.
"Nice to meet you as well! What's your name?"
"My name is Evalryn. And you really shouldn't have came here..."
"Why do you say that, little thing?"
(She's 10ft tall)
"There... ... Strange powers are at work in this town. My Patron instructed me to investigate this town, and gain new followers of it's teachings... but I'm afraid I dug a bit too deep... There's a child in this town. He claims that he will... He wants to change all mythicals into humans. Now, I'm fairly certain he can't do that... but my Patron isn't as sure... Things are dangerous here, and I haven't seen my Patron this on edge since the Vampire King attacked... You really should leave."
