Veric was a stranger in a land foreign to him, and knew better than to let slip such useless hostility over nothing. It wasn’t the first time his trustworthiness or motivations were questioned and wouldn’t be the last, but what was more...
“You have little reason to, regardless of what I say.” What was this person’s connection to this place? It figured his rotten luck would have him stumbling upon a stranger without having even found his footing in this odd corner of the world. “All I can say is that I’m merely a traveler passing through, and whether you choose to believe me or not, well...” Dark hands smoothed down the front of his robes, oddly spared of grime or disarray for a supposed wanderer, but if it was his intent to look out of place, he more than managed it. But he couldn’t allow himself to be chased away, if there may have been a reason this newfound vessel of his had been placed here, of all places.
Veric straightened. “Regardless, I have no intention of staying here. Just as soon as I... discover where it is that I’m going.”
