To Mineral! (Moore, 88 days left)

[Anastasia]

"I heard you beat the devils up all the time, and you talked down one of the big blue ones that's called a gelugon, then you kicked a bunch of the bearded ones off a cliff!" She says that in one burst of words, tumbling out one after another. "That's the best!"

[Nephrite]

"Um..." He blinks. "Well, at some point Aurora has done all of those things. Are you seeking me out because you'd like our help with something?"

[Anastasia]

A deeper blush and Queyla looks down again. "I was h-hoping you'd take me to Aurora and I could learn from all of you. I have a good reason!" She speaks normally until the last sentence, which she just blurts out. "A really good reason!"

[Nephrite]

"And that reason is...?" He asks, trying not to pressure her too much.

[Anastasia]

"I lost a brother to the devils," She says, shoulders stiffening and fists balling up. "He was called as a paladin and traveled to oppose them. He...never made it back home."

[Nephrite]

"Don't throw your life away fighting devils for revenge." Moore says with a small frown. "I'm happy to bring you to Aurora nonetheless. What do you do?"

[Anastasia]

"I'm a trader like the rest of the family, plus I can manage 1st circle magic," Queyla adds the latter part quickly. "I'm not much of a warrior, but not everyone has to sling spells or swing swords to fight!"

[Nephrite]

Moore nods. "So you'd want to open a shop there?"

[Anastasia]

"I could help someone with that," Queyla says quickly, "I can pull my own tree, I promise!" She kneels down to be on eye level with you, "Please accept me, for my brother's sake, so I can help his soul rest easier."

[Nephrite]

He blinks a few times and then smiles. "Far be it from me to deny the wisdom of the mountain. Filbrez could probably use your help, I bet."

[Anastasia]

"Thankyouthankyouthankyou!" Queyla blurts out, "I'll be ready to go as soon as I go back and get my things!"

[Nephrite]

"I'll go with you." Moore says.  "Shall we?"

[Anastasia]

Going to mostly go along with this or take any sort of active role?

[Nephrite]

He'll follow along with her for now.

[Anastasia]

Another hour or two back, then Queyla hurries off, "Just wait right there, Sir Moore," she calls, hurrying off.
