*shakes his head* No, I’ve been away since I was twenty. Tides shifted, a couple years of low yield for the fishermen at home. I came out to help support my parents with other income.

Ooc://Also I totally lied to you, Phee is 24 lol

*Nods her head in approval and gave a smile*

I understand. That's good. Have you had a chance to return and see them?

*Finishing with cleaning, she turns to sharpening the blades. The slow and rhythmic ringing of metal against stone sings throughout the cavern.*

*smiles, a little wistful* Not personally. Just letters. *a pause* Where are the two of you from, if you don’t mind my asking?

*Shares a silent exchange with Pearl.*

We've been travelling for years together. I have never had a place I call home. Even as I child, my people were wanders.

*Phee nods, quiet for a moment* Someone I know once said when you carry your home on your shoulders, in your heart, no one can take it away from you.

i..... well i dont remember a lot before i was a fae, i was raised in some kind of monastery, But the Fae folks are from another realm you see... and I am.... Fae kind but dont tend to go "home" *using my fingers to show quotations around the word home* often. Sho is my home now. Shes my family. *beaming at Sholin*

*Phee smiles between the two of them* I’m glad you have each other.

*Sho smiles back to Pearl and with her finger gently boops her on the nose*

She met me and stuck to me like glue. Couldn't escape her if I tried.

*Looks at Phee* Well you may be wandering too, but know that you've got us on your sides now. If you're important to us that means we will guard you well.

*nods, looking down* You’ve both proved that...so many times. *he laughs* Hell, I would have gone down with that ship had the two of you not been there.

*Smiles* Oh, that's right! Gods...it seems that was ages ago. Well you're looks help *Winks* but mostly because I felt you had an honest look about you.

So, tell me, why were you in those decks? I doubt it was for burglary or murder.

A deep grumbly throat clears in the background. *In a near pathetic whisper* "You know many of my kind also braided their hair.. but it sure didn't take more than one person..." *Glancing back and forth at Sho, Phee, and Pearl* His appearance seeming nearly faded as he approaches the group.

*grateful for the deflection and the change of topics, Phee unsubtly turns to Regith with an abrupt motion* I can braid yours if you like?

*Notices the quick deflection from Phee. She gazes intently at him, with her ever watchful eyes. She finally shrugs and turns her full attention to her swords.*

*yawning* Reigth *trying to say his name with out irritation* how old are you?

*turning to Sho to whisper while Regith is otherwise occupied* Siren tears have...incredible healing properties. I was on that ship a prisoner, intended to be sold. The people we encountered in the abandoned village? They were my captors.

*Regith comes out of a haze* "Ah! That they do, they have incredible magical properties, along with other abilities..." *Staring off in the distance until his eyes appear on Pearl* "Ah, and I am only 987 years old little one, but I look as young as 230." *With a chipper grin following.

*in response to Sho, Phee just gestures at Regith*

*he shakes his head after a moment, though, chuckling. in spite of himself, he is fond of the dwarf*

If I were able to produce tears on command it would be less of a problem, but it’s nearly impossible to get a siren to cry. I...worry about the lengths people would go to to obtain them, friend or foe. *looking at Regith and patting the place in front of him* Now come over here, darling, and we’ll make you look even younger.

*Sholin shrugs at this and finishes sharpening her sword and places her things back in her pack. Without a word she stands up and walks over toward a dark corner near the water fall and kneels down. She contemplates her surroundings, watching the floating rocks above them. Finally she closes her eyes and softly begins to utter words in her native tongue.*

not to bad there old man! 987 is ... impressive. do you use facial cream? old dwarven secrets? lack of sun?

*whispers to Phee* my prior words still stand true.

eye balling sholins bed roll, glancing back at her in the corner. I head dive to the opening wiggling on in as i pull the covers up to my chest* AHHHH! so soft.

*Phee sits for a moment, unable to remember what Pearl’s “prior words” were, but intimidated nonetheless*

*yawning as i rub my eye from sleepy-ness, i notice Phee's reaction*
I will not share your secret or take advantage of the knowledge you have shared.

Oh. *Phee laughs, feeling stupid. The expression turns a little sad, a little grateful* Thank you, Pearl.

*Regith replies to Phee* "Ha! Nevermind my hair it couldn't possibly be better than it is. However... it would be wise to tend to your foot... how is it by the way" *Great concern comes from Regith* "You were hit by one of the 12 lords of Hells after all. "
