Phee how you doing on that side?

*finishing one braid and starting another* You won’t have to bribe me to get in the water. Does your sister have some sort of...advantage?

You could say that. She's a water Nymph.

*Absentmindedly grabs the newly finished braid and plays with it in her fingers. Still staring at the fire, lost in her thoughts.*

I don’t get wet. *turning my back so Phee can he see my wings* wings don’t do well in water.

*Phee admires Pearl’s wings* They’re beautiful. Do you swim as a Halfling?

Sent from Topic'it App

Thank you! And I don’t know, I’ve never tried, I don’t often go into halfling form.
I love flying!

Well when you visit Shearsmouth, we’ll have to give it a try.

*finishes another braid, one particularly elaborate.*

*Pulled out of her thoughts as another braid drops next to her face. She picks it up and admires it. She rotates it back and forth allowing the fire light to glimmer off the silver strands.*

Very lovely...it catches the silver strands nicely. Did your mother teach you this as well?

*Phee smiles* Father, actually. Fishermen are very good at knots. *he wiggles his fingers* And with their hands. *another wink*

*Chuckles* Perhaps next time I'll get a demonstration.

So you seem close to both your parents?

*with a sly, quiet smile* If you like.

*he finishes another braid, then nods* They’ve been good to me. I wouldn’t be alive if not for them.

*Smirks and bites the corner of her lip for a moment. Her thoughts shift to his answer*

That is wonderful. I envy you.

I’m sorry you have a reason to envy. *he finishes his last braid and sits back, hands in his lap* Do you see your family often?

*Looks at Phee as her amber eyes go dark*

They are dead.

*Phee regards her solemnly, brows pulling together, looking genuinely sorrowful, shying back a bit* I...I’m so sorry. That’s... *he looks down* I’m so sorry.

*Shrugs*

I've known more death in my life than I have memory.

*Seeing his eyes she smiles sadly.* Thank you for your sentiment.

*Her hair finished, she shakes her head feeling the weight and bounce.*

Perfect. *Looks at Pearl* brilliant as ever my dearest. *At Phee* Thank you. I let few touch it, but you did wonderfully.

*She stands up and picks up her sword and takes a leather cloth from her bag. She begins to methodically wipe the gore from the shining blade.*

Phee, how old are you?

Sent from Topic'it App

*he smiles, subdued* I’m honored. *quiet for a moment, thinking, looking at his lap, eventually looking up to answer* Twenty-six.

So young. Is this your first time away from the shores of your home?
