[color=fff79a]"Mercenary actually. Never really hold any personal loyalties to any land or king, just whoever paid me the highest coin. But I think it's still honorable. Or rather, it's as honorable as you make it. I've fought up northerners before, but I've not been to their lands. I'd prefer a more mild climate to be honest."[/color] Indeed, the only reason Catarina stuck around the scotching deserts of Sapphire was because she lacked the funds to get far. What money she had now mostly went to living expanses, and if she planned to travel out of this country to elsewhere, she'd need even more. Which would bring Catarina to Veridis's question. [color=fff79a]"I'd get out of here. Sapphire has it's charms, but I'm due for a change in scenery. Maybe I'd head up north like Sir Knight mentioned here, see what all the hubbub about those northern barbarians is all about."[/color]

Cataraina then remembered that Elleonora was here, who was said Northern barbarians. [color=fff79a]"Ah, I'm sure there's lots I could learn from them. Culture and what not."[/color] Catarina said with a chuckle. Good thing she was wearing her helmet or everyone would see her embarrassment. [color=fff79a]"Aside from the journey ahead, probally on equipment as well. My blade is topnotch, but I think my armor could use some enchantment as well. Perhaps something to make it more comfortable for me to wear on the day-to-day, since I don't have a partner who'd help me out of it."[/color]

[color=brown]"Ah, a sorcerer then! I've heard of your kind I think. Natural talents in the arcane arts."[/color] Makes sense for an elf. Either they pick up wizardry or they were already attuned to it. A lot of Vivian's spells seemed of the evocation sort, the type of magic that commanded natural forces to wreck havoc on the enemies. That was fine with Parum, certainly more effective to clear a group with a fireball then to hack each warrior them one-by-one. Soon Veridis asked what everyone would use their earnings for, to which Parum smirked. [color=brown]"Funding a business of course. I came to Sapphire looking for profitable ventures. Perhaps a company or a guild of my own. Or at least, buy myself a place in a guild. There are many things one can do with money after all."[/color] And the money she'd get from this job, either by turning over the Chalice or selling it to the next highest bidder, would go far into Parum's plot. [color=brown]"Of course, I'm not like most people who could just settledown with that much gold. You'd think I was a dwarf with how often I'd like to get more money."[/color]
