"Well..." Seian said, hesitating at the man's question, though he'd long thought about what his excuse would be for being gone if asked. "I went to visit at a university in Ajteire. There's some things I couldn't find in local libraries, so I thought I would go out and learn what I co...

Seian nodded to Katarya as she spoke. Of course such magic wasn't less important- Anything that allowed you to work your will on the world, especially to make it a better place, was important. When Raen bowed at him, he smiled back. "I'll certainly keep that in mind." he said. "I'd be...

"Er, yes, of course..." Seian muttered, as he was admonished by the young man to stop staring. He turned, and accepted the mug from the man with a muttered "thank you". When asked for his name, he responded, "My name's Seian." At the next reminder not to start trouble, ...

Seian glanced at Raen, and made a noncommital noise, acknowledging that he'd heard the elf's comment. He didn't think anything Katarya said had been out of line though, nor even the way she'd said it- Perhaps she wasn't the most kind and tender person, but her thoughts and concerns were not unreason...

Warily, Seian took the stranger's hand, and followed him. "Well, a drink would be appreciated... Take the edge off of all this." They went into the tavern, and Seian glanced around. It was a typical tavern of its sort, not perhaps the most reputable, but certain to have strong enough ale t...

Seian nodded at Raen's warning about the witch, and would idly chatter with the elf about anything Raen so wished, while waiting for the witch to emerge. When she did, and she addressed him, he didn't quite look her straight in the eye, though he did remain looking at her face. He often did this unc...

Seian leaned forward as Raen motioned for him to, and listened intently. When Raen mentioned the contracts, and the witch, his eyes widened, and he visibly took attention- It seemed his meaning had gone through quite well, though he'd said nothing incriminating for himself. What was being said was p...

Despite everything he'd just been worried about, Seian laughed, taken aback by the elf's friendliness. Smouldering eyes? That was more than your average playful banter, that was blatant flirtation. It was odd, but it was also refreshing, in a way. Seian wondered if the man treated everyone that way,...

Seian couldn't help but be aware of how out of place he was here. He was the only human in a room full of elves, a reversal of what an elf would often face in the rest of the city. It was obvious that he was viewed as an intruder, unwelcome and not to be trusted. He didn't know why Malik had arrange...

Seian kept running for a bit, until his adrenaline began to fade, and he looked back behind him and saw that the elf wasn't still behind him. Finally he slowed down, noticing his own hard breathing. He felt ridiculous. He could justify striking out with the staff and trying to keep the elf down, he ...
