[ There must have been another feast. Word of it has traveled to her ears as well as talk for a hunt. Both are events that draw some concern, but don't affect her goals, therefore they are better ignored. What she could do is make an attempt to reach out to shardholders, old and new, and possibly make a bit of coin in doing so. That's why when she greets everyone, it's with a pleasantly polite smile and the decor of the Castle Mair behind her. ]

What a busy month. Are they all like that? [ She waves a hand as she speaks as if to brush off the topic. ] It may have gone unnoticed, but as the Master of Archer it's only proper to inform you that he took his leave earlier last month of this world. If he had any debts, you may approach me with proof of this and I will conclude his business.

Speaking of paying off debts, my workshop is ready to take costumers. My specialty is conversion magic as well as command over all five of the elements. [ Her expression is rehearsed and composed, much like a teacher addressing a class full of idiots. ] In short, I can do a number of things many others don't advertise they can do. It seems pointless to keep my status as a magus here a secret when the world is surrounded by magic. Though it would be nice to learn something useful like shooting a bow...

[ She mutters that last part. ]

Anyway, speak with me about what you want and I'll arrange to help you if I can. We can sort out payment, favors, and IOU's later, especially if you're new to this world. I'm flexible.

[ She too shares this resemblance of electrical devices blowing up in her face, Merida. It's good company from here on out. ]

Decided to keep it as a reminder?

It's all right. I'm decent at handling fire well enough so no harm will come to your hair. After all, it'd be a shame to ruin anymore of that vibrant color.

[notyetlegend]

It wasn't my fault. I have two dumb boys tae look after.

[Just. Deciding to put that out there.]

It runs in th' family so, aye, t'would be a shame. I'll make sure tae braid it when I come for lessons.

[gandere]

[ Looking after dumb boys is another thing they have in common. Just how many dumb boys are there in the Drabwurld?? ]

It's all right. I can help make sure no harm comes to it.

I never wear my hair up.

[notyetlegend]

[So many dumb boys, Rin.]

Nor I. It's too much of a hassle. Took mum a couple of hours to pin it up for th' games.

[gandere]

Maybe I can see if there's a way to teach you how to ward it off from magical harm. Good chances are it holds a lot of magical energy in its current state--but that's something I'll have to confirm for myself up close.

So I'll eagerly wait to meet up with you at The Barrel. If you can't make it, please spare the time to message me.

[notyetlegend]

Hair can hold magical energy?

[She picks at a strand of hair curiously, looking at it out the corner of her eye before shrugging.]

Aye, I'll be sure tae. I'm travelin' around th' Eastward an' Southern roads practicin' my swordsmanship so I won't be that far away.

[gandere]

It can. Magical energy, or prana in my world, is found both within the world as well as the individuals who inhabit it. I'd like to see if your body is capable of producing it, which it should be seeing as you can conjure flame, but there's no telling if the rules of magic are different for you or not.

Are you practicing how to use a sword as well? I've got a stick!

[ Sheepishly realizing how stupid that sounds, she corrects herself. ] A stick I've enchanted to weight the same as a training sword that I've been practicing swinging around. Maybe we can spar!

[notyetlegend]

That...almost explains why th' witch took some of my hair for th' spell...

[It's murmured, almost as an afterthought as she rubs her chin. The second part startles her, but she giggles a little at Rin's explanation.]

Aye. I was granted a new sword as a boon. I've never been th' best at sword fightin', not like my archery. I'd like a sparrin' partner who's on my level.

[Lies, Mer.]

[gandere]

I suppose I would have to get a real sword first before I could do anything like that. It'll be troublesome, but I'll see what I can do. In the meantime, do take care.

It'd be unfortunate it if you couldn't come out here in the end. [ She needs more pals her age. ] I'll see you then-!
