[Weird miqo'te, he thinks. There must be many varieties or something. A very handsome Elvaan Elezen comes into view. He offers a kind smile. Something about the familiar allows him to be more than just polite.]

Aye, good sir, it is working. My apologies, this is far from where you would have wished to land. We are all lost souls here, though many of us have a common thread to one another. I recognize your bird. Its call warms my heart with memories of home.

My name is Aymeric; I hail from Ishgard.

[catricide]

[!

Little did he expect to see an Elvaan in this sea of Humes, but it's nice to see some variation between the races here. Not that he has anything particularly against Humes or anything, but still.]

Ishgarrrd? I confess I have not heard of that San d'Orian settlement. Regarrrdless, I am Lehko Habhoka, I hail from Gha Naboh. I am glad that Tempest could afford you such warmth, 'twould seem any and all are in well need of such here.

[heiresy]

Nary have I heard of your lands. I believe I have met few people outside my continent, but I understand that they are all much different places. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Lehko.

[It's definitely too rude to ask someone what is up with their face, but the longer he looked the more he realized the differences from the Miqo'te that he'd seen.]

Tell me, have you been able to make sense of your map?

[catricide]

The pleasure is all mine, I assurrre you.

Little am I surprised, if there is anything I have learrrned, it's that Elvaan tend to keep to themselves if able.

[It isn't said in a way to be insulting, more an acknowledgement of how his people simply are. Nothing wrong with it!]

Being unfamiliarrr with this land makes it a touch difficult to make sense of the map, I confess, but I do believe I am figuring it out. I have a generrral idea where I am, at least.

[heiresy]

[Elvaan? No matter, he's been called all manner of things. Maybe English was a second language to him.]

You would be correct in your assessment. We tend to be a terribly private people, for better or worse. I have heard similarly of your people. Few are those who venture away from their families. [For worse, really.]

If I can aid in deciphering or describing landmarks, please allow me to assist. I have not been here terribly long, but I have traversed a few areas well. [Something is better than nothing, he figures.]

I am concerned about something. I haven't seen a single green thing since coming here. Will your bird eat anything else?

[catricide]

It's true, we mithra for the most parrrt keep to ourselves. If not for the Crrrystal War, we might not have cared to venture to Midartia at all.

[How's that for second language?]

I will be sure to ask for your assistance should I ever need it. Howeverrr, as far as my birrrd is concerned... While Chocobos tend to be more herrrbivores than not, they can eat more than just greens.

[He lets out a woeful sigh.]

He will have to make do with what we can find. Anotherrr has offerrred to keep an eye out for anything that may suit his diet, at least. Forgive me, but could I humbly request you do the same?

[heiresy]

[Yeah that sounds like a load of foreign politics. He doesn't understand, but tucks that tidbit away for later.]

Certainly, I wouldn't mind. [The thought strikes him. He hadn't had any luck, but...]

Say, were you to find an archery set or the tools to made a crude one- I would trade anything shy of the clothes off my back for that. [A pause] Do you ordinarily carry a weapon?

[catricide]

I will keep an eye out for anything of the sort. I imagine weapons here would prrrove themselves rather favorable among our fellows.

[He pauses at the question though, but only for the briefest of moments, before he shakes his head.]

I cannot say I do, I am not much of a fighter, you see...

[heiresy]

My thanks.

[There were always a few of the sort around. Francel was one of them. A bit of a liability, but interesting for sure. ]

Is your chocobo your protection, or will you need an escort? T'would be a shame if aught befell you as you traveled, Lehko.

[catricide]

My chocobo has been trained for prrrotection, yes. I am a military strategist, and as such I have been given a militarized chocobo. Howeverrr, while I have the mind for battle, little do I have the frame for it.
