01 cactus flower - action/video
[Action]
[This new arrival is determined not to fly blind into Luceti. The first thing he does upon gathering himself is pick up the journal, examine it, find the guide, and read it from end to end. It raises many worries, but answers all of his questions, and, thus prepared, he heads for the village.
...Still wet from his unfortunately placed landing, and with far less clothing than he would like. His glasses would be nice to have, too...
Ondorus stops when he comes within sight of the village, his worry and wariness becoming too much to ignore. Is this a human habitation? Might they chase him away if he comes too near? Or is it a town unlike Sharance, where all people would be welcomed?
The hesitant New Feather in the field to the village's west could use some reassurance. Anyone conducive to crossing his path there in the morning?]
[Video]
[The man that appears on the journals later in the day has been restored to his usual dignity, soft purple cape over dark robes and thin-framed glasses resting on his nose. His spiraled horn and pointed ears are very visible in the video, as are the few tattoos patterned over his forehead and cheekbone. He looks straight at the camera with calm, steady purposefulness, and when he speaks, his voice is steady and his words are precise.]
Good evening.
My name is Ondorus, and I am a new arrival to Luceti. I am very grateful to the kind residents who pointed me in the right direction when I was searching for my personal effects. [He bows his head for a moment.] Thank you, sincerely. I also would like to thank the author of the guide found in the journals. It is very well-laid-out and -written, and eased the surprise of arrival considerably.
[He bows his head again.
Ondorus wonders if he should say something about the village's diversity - ask if it is usual and accepted, thank the villagers for their openmindedness, speak to his fellow nonhumans? No, no -he all would draw too much attention to himself. And there didn't seem to be any problems...best to let a sleeping shadow panther lie.]
…Ah. To the community as a whole...this village seems to be quite well-equipped to meet our needs in such a way that renders many normal tasks unnecessary. What sorts of activities do you recommend to fill the spare time? If you'd like to share your own preferences, I would appreciate that as well.
