[@Hawlin] The Storyteller had just opened his mouth to reply to Tiberius and Kaite when a new arrival made his presence known. Turning to face the voice by the tree, The Storyteller's eyes went wide with recognition when the man stood and became completely visible. The Seal of the Vanquisher that pierced the man's broken horn was too exact to be a forgery. On top of that, the man's manner and attitude matched what had been described in the stories perfectly. There was no way to deny it. Edward Prodotis had just walked into their camp, sat down at their fireside, and asked what was for dinner. The sound of Kaite brushing him off without so much as a backward glance brought The Storyteller back to his senses. "Our mutual friend decided to minimize the risk of death by Devourer our group faces by having Vert with us" The Storyteller explained to Kaite "She did so by sewing Vert's maw shut. It was a painful procedure, so that was why she screamed. Once it was done, Vert removed her ring and gave it to me". Once he was done explaining, The Storyteller took another glance at the new arrival. He was still having trouble believing that the 1st Transcendent had just walked into their camp, and so casually too.
