[quote] [i][color=662d91]We are curious if you are from Carcousa? The realm of Shab’Nigarth the mother of darkness?[/color][/i]” [/quote] Sonia, who was ready to head back was stopped by the robed man's inquiry, seemingly taken aback by the way he spoke. [color=a187be]"Carcousa?"[/color] she frowned, the name was something she might have heard of but couldn't quite place it. Probably the name of a place in another language? The mention of the mother of darkness was even more confusing to her. Though, it was not unusual. Sonia had heard a lot of rumors regarding her origin to the point she was used to it and wouldn't bother correcting too much. [color=a187be]"I am afraid the place you mentioned is the realm I have never been, good sir. I was from Urstad, a country in the north of the continent,"[/color] she answered, and it sounded like a kind of standard-issue answer she had been trained to use; very polite and she would certainly introduce herself with a curtsy had she not standing in the such unsteady surface such as sands. [color=a187be]"A wandering huntress. Sonia Al-Hathya at your service." [/color] Anyway, the topic was both intriguing and troubling for her, and any attempt to remember anything related to her origin had brought a certain pain in her head. [color=a187be]"I am sorry but I think we can continue this talk later."[/color] She took a brief moment to glance at the man, who seemed to acknowledge her discomfort by changing the topic almost immediately.

[color=a187be]"Now, I must go back to my friend. Will catch up with everyone else later!"[/color]
