(Small collab between [@LiverisGood] and OtomostheCrazy) [center][h1]Aenwyn and Kaathe[/h1][/center] Kaathe looked at the latest few arrivals. One was a familiar face, while the other was someone he had recognized as part of Karl's initial group. He hadn't seen her much, but a bit of eavesdropping had allowed him to gather a bit of a first impression on her. "[color=0054a6]It seems that you've been paying attention. Though, I doubt mere reconnaissance is all that will take place.[/color]" Kaathe looked up at the Wood Elf. He raised an eyebrow, and spoke again. "[color=0054a6]And who would you be?[/color]" Aenwyn gave a small smile at the dark elf. "Me? I'm just a scholar whose accompanying the others. Aenwyn Loradi. Just recording anything of interest. That and I know quite a bit of magic. You don't quite know who I am, but I do know of you. Tabetha spoke of you Kaathe Ooacile though this is the first time we formally introduced ourselves." "[color=0054a6]Tabetha, hm?[/color]" Kaathe remembered Tabetha well. He didn't really interact with her much, but then again, he didn't do that with many people in general. Still, he remembered poking a bit of fun at her with those rumors that others had once passed around. Something about betraying the teachings of the Order or something like that. He was amused to find that those rumors weren't entirely unfounded. The Dark Elf looked at Aenwyn with a gentle grin. "[color=0054a6]And just what exactly did that girl speak of me?[/color]" "What word did she used to describe you? Aloof. Yes, I think she described you as aloof. She said you were very quiet and you kept everything to yourself as if you had no attachments to the world. You were simply there, rarely speaking with others. She found it hard to talk to you and she felt sad in some ways. A lonely existence wandering, wandering with no purpose, never reaching out to others. She wondered what you were fighting for, let alone living for?" Aenwyn walked closer towards Kaathe until she was but a breath away from his face. "I wonder how much of that is true? She did like to embellish her stories." With that, Aenwyn turn around and began to pace back and forth. "How much longer are we waiting?" she said to no one in particular. Kaathe silently gazed back at the woman when she went up close to him. To most others, she would have been uncomfortably close, but Kaathe didn't care much for personal space. Especially when it was constantly invaded by monsters and people anyway. When Aenwyn turned, Kaathe closed his eyes and let out a dry chuckle. She, just like many others before her had attempted to get to him, or at least understand him through outer means. Had she done this to his younger self, she'd probably be dangling a reckless, violent Dark Elven boy upside-down in the air by his feet. Aenwyn asked when they were to make their way, and Kaathe responded by saying, "[color=0054a6]Soon enough. Glodin is going to get drunken arse scolded, but he'll get here soon enough. He never lets himself get left behind. Look, there he is right now.[/color]" Kaathe pointed to the pride-filled Dwarven warrior. It seemed everyone that was going was present now.
