You’ve just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As you look around, your gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. You 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?)) A: Eos narrows his eyes, taking in the old hag with a measured glance before stepping forward. He lowers himself onto the cushion, the leather of his coat creaking as he sits. "My story?" His voice is calm but direct, lacking any hint of uncertainty. "I’m no poet or bard. I fix the broken—bind their wounds, stop the bleeding, and move on. My hands do the talking." He pauses, watching her closely. "But if you’ve been expecting me, you must know that already." He leans forward slightly, eyes sharp. "I'm not famous around these parts, So, what is it you really want from me?"

Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.” Pheobe steps into the tent, their glowing yellow eyes flickering as they take in the scene. The smell of rot and moss doesn't faze them; they seem almost at home in it. The hag's words make them pause, and they tilt their head, studying her with an unsettling intensity. Slowly, they glide to the cushion, sitting with an eerie grace. "Stories are like shadows—hard to grasp, but if you must hear it... I am drawn to forgotten places, where secrets linger. This town reeks of such things." Pheobe's voice is a soft whisper, yet it lingers in the air. "But you already knew that. Tell me, what do you see when you look at me?" Their gaze locks onto hers, curious and unblinking.

"You say you have been expecting me, but some part of me doubts you are what I need". He relaxes his arm onto the mossy ground. "I am Astral, a highlander. Me and my lord lived in the forests west of Fenn. Unfortunately, the residents weren't all that hospitable to him. So I lived with him as his guard." He stands up. "My lord gave me hope, and purpose. When he died, my purpose died as well. I live to serve. Unless you have work for me, I will be taking my leave." He begins to leave the tent, but stops in the doorway. "Thank you for listening to my story, aged one. May you prosper."
