[color=8dc73f][center][h1]Freyr[/h1][/center][/color] Freyr smiled with a much more tranquil and serene expression as he heard Haley's words. Indeed, humans had so much potential... Even though some of it was misdirected, they were still worth insisting on. So varied, so different from one another... With a little guidance, they could become different from what they are right now... Haley's words about the poet did worry him a little bit though. It was indeed truth that humans had a great capacity for hate... even for their own kind... But Freyr choose to dismiss that as just a remote possibility. Hopefully, that poet wouldn't be like that... Hopefully... [color=8dc73f]"Thanks, Haley. Thanks for hearing me and for those words. You are a real blessing, you know that?"[/color] He said, smiling kindly towards her, before turning to the new arrival. [color=8dc73f]"Y-yes... I am Freyr... Did Neil and Bartholomew send you?"[/color] Freyr asked, a bit confused on how did he knew his name. But the second after he said about the mission, Freyr immediately knew that Neil and Bartholomew had probably sent him. "[color=2e3192]A friend of yours, Freyr?[/color]" Freyr heard Haley asking. [color=8dc73f]"No... I don't think so. In fact, I'm a bit surprised he knew who I am... Although I guess it's not that hard to find me... male monsters are indeed a bit... unusual..."[/color] Freyr said, laughing. [color=8dc73f]"Well, I agree with what Haley said... If we're going to travel together, knowing a bit more about ourselves wouldn't be that bad..."[/color] Freyr said, looking towards Ars and Haley, after she finished introducing herself. [color=8dc73f]"I am Freyr. As weird as it may sound... I am a male Viera..."[/color] Freyr said, putting a bit of emphasis on the male part, but not as in a male demi human, but as in a male viera. [color=8dc73f]"I'm... well... just your average viera... I guess? Not that average since I left, and thus, was exiled from the forest. I'm a skilled hunter, tracker and I'm rather knowledgeable about poisons, herbal medicines and the nature in general."[/color] He said as if everyone knew what Vieras were, despite the fact that only very few people knew much about them. [@PaulHaynek] [@Kyun] [hr] [color=C6DEFF][center][h1]Bast Ragoczy[/h1][/center][/color] That was surprisingly... unhelpful. Bast thought he would at least be able to obtain a bit of information out of that, but he got nothing other than their names... [color=C6DEFF]"Is that so...?"[/color] Bast asked, with a disappointed expression. [color=C6DEFF]"I was hoping I could talk with Mr. or Mrs. Barensia, but I guess that it can't be helped. I will certainly try to find him, but before I go, would you mind if I just took a look around outside the manor? I wish to take some mental notes about the architecture, the decoration and the garden."[/color] Bast said, looking to the guards. [color=C6DEFF]"Oh, don't worry. I am not asking to let me in. It would be incredibly rude and disrespectful for someone to get in someone's house without their consent. I will simply stay outside the gates and take a quick look around, would that be ok?"[/color] Bast asked looking to them. His intentions, of course weren't just to take a look. He didn't really need to get close to the stagecoach to burn it, since he could just send one of his cards there. He just needed a clean line of sight, so he could make the card stick on the stagecoach. If possible... Bast would like to burn it in a more... public location. Maybe when Mr. and Mrs. Barensia had to use it... It would indeed be very interesting. But for that... he needed a bit more of information. [color=C6DEFF]"Oh, one more question before I go. Is there some way I can meet with Mr. and Mrs. Barensia? I would like to formally greet them. I may not hang around the city for too long, since I'm a very busy gentleman. Maybe a public event or a ball they will attend? My guess that it would be more... comfortable for both parties if we could do such in a public environment..."[/color] Bast said, looking to them almost like if he was about to make a confession. [color=C6DEFF]"You see... I have a reputation to keep... And I don't want to look like I'm... how do common people say it...? A bootlicker, is that right?"[/color] He said, with a smirk. [color=C6DEFF]"You two surely understand the importance of building good relationships, right? Even the king or the queen of a kingdom could fall if they don't have powerful friends..."[/color] Bast said, gently tapping his fingers on his cane. [@PaulHaynek]
