“Of course you can drink, Calvin.” Shona seated herself at the table. “Anyone who would like a refresher is welcome to it. It wouldn't be very good if I tried to finish it by myself.” The knight managed to say that without cracking a smile. She turned her attention to Quill. “It is customary to offer your own name before asking another for theirs. If you want to get to know people better, you need only tell them about yourself. Like so...” Shona took a sip of her ale. It was a bit sweet for an ale, but it still had a strong flavor that made it impossible to chug. That was just the way she liked them. The knight pushed away the glass and continued her story. “We were all scouted by Infinity Initiative at some point. Someone was, unbeknown to us, tracking our movements and accomplishments. This story is about the day Dexter, my recruiter, confronted me. It was during a renaissance festival in France. As it is the birth place of Joan of Arc, there was a lot of exitement to see a reknown reinactor like myself participating in the event. Of course in armor, you could hardly tell if I was a woman or a man.” Shona looked down at herself before lifting her head back up again. “I wasn't wearing this clearly. Real armor covers the body more compleatly, and isn't designed to exagerate a woman's curves.” She sighed before continuing. “Something else you should know is that I wasn't the only woman in the group. I believe her name was Tonya. She put in a lot of training, but she was still new to a lot of things. This would be her first live jousting contest against a real opponent, which was me. It was noon, and I was fully armored and mounted on my steed. Tonya's crew was a bit slower. She was very pretty, which I suspect slowed her squire down.” Shona sat up a bit straighter and placed her hands on the edge of the table. “When they had her fully armored, they dropped the flag and we charged each other. Tonya made a valiant effort, but I had every advantage over her from hight to skill. I threw her from her horse on the first blow, and this is when Dexter first appeared before me.” the corners of Shona's lips were flexing. She really didn't want to smile. “He immidiately pulled off Tonya's helmet, asking her over and over again if she was alright. She was of course. It was a clean fall, and the leather padding inside the armor works pretty well to dampen a fall. But he was so mad! He hounded me. 'how could you?' he said over and over again. 'how could you do this to such a talented young woman?' I wanted to speak up, but he gave me no room to interject. Finally he told me that I had no right to call myself a man. To which I removed my helmet. He nearly fell over in suprise.” The knight grinned as she reached for her glass. “Aparently he forgot my name, and was asking everyone where the 'woman knight' was. Because I was already in armor, everyone thought he was talking about Tonya. Once I was off my horse, Dexter told me that he had been folowing my exploits, but had never actually seen a picture of me. He asked me if I'd be interested in joining Infinity initiative, and I said yes. The rest, as they say, is history.” Shona took another sip of her ale. It seemed to get better the longer it was exposed to the fresh air. “I'm going to finish my drink and start exploring the resort later. In the meantime though, does anyone else want to share a tale?” She eyed Ice. “If you need help moving him back to his room, I am willing to assist.”
