Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”
((How do you respond?))
Nina hesitates a moment, looking down at her muddy boots, before she gingerly takes a seat. "Um, just a quick question first. How have you been expecting me? I only decided to come this way this morning." As the silence hangs, Nina becomes visibly uncomfortable. "Okay, you don't need to tell me I suppose. I'm here looking for my family. The story before that is not too interesting, we lived in a remote forest in Aevos far from any major settlements." Nina's face draws into a frown and the silence fills the tent yet again. "Leaving Aevos wasn't exactly orderly, and we got separated. You said you expected me, do you know anything about what happened to them?" A glimmer of hope can be seen in Nina's eyes, but she doesn't seem to dare let it grow into anything greater than that.
