"Played with the space here, it'll always be big enough while feeling comfortable." Bastian says as he watches, gesturing for you to take a seat. "The final inn where you can rest from your long journey."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa raises an eyebrow, "The final inn? A tad morbid. Sounds rather final."

[Anastasia]

Bastian shakes his head, "You never got old or had to die," Bastian points out, "You never felt that bone deep weariness when your time comes close and you know it. You've never felt that anxiety that makes you question where you'll go after it's all done. It's not morbid, it's a promise."

[Iron Dragoon]

"I meant more for any living visitor. Unless it's reserved only for the fallen?"

[Anastasia]

"No more than going to Elysium or Baator early," Bastian disagrees, "Elysium's pleasant, but don't forget that's where some souls go after they die." He looks over, "I'm still getting used to what all of this means," he taps his fist against his chest, "But I've been a spirit for a long time. I'm used to that assumption."

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods, "Well, name aside, it's fantastic. All the best things of all the inns and taverns I've been to, I can see here. I might have to reserve a room in perpetuity... And I think the idea of taverns and inns having a small shrine dedicated to you is fantastic.

If you're interested, you can embed your people into the settler groups leaving from the Academy as tavern masters."

[Anastasia]

"Not the worst idea," Bastian agrees, as...

Anything else to do here, dread one?

[Iron Dragoon]

Not really unless he has any sort of project/goals he wants to talk about and coordinate for.

[Anastasia]

Okay, what other todos do you have then?

[Iron Dragoon]

Still need to check in with Emily first, so I can talk to her about taking charge of the slaves and refugees and stuff.

[Anastasia]

You find Emily's diversified. It's an island sure enough, but large. Full, a city there. A rather elven city amid the trees, yet she flies above it, observing distantly.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa teleports next to her, "Hello! I came to see your corner of the world here. I quite like the architecture."

[Anastasia]

"Alyssa." Emily smiles back to you, "It's not bad for an island, but of course I want more. It's a good beginning."

[Iron Dragoon]

"Oh? How much more? Planning to move out on your own eventually?"

[Anastasia]

"No," Emily says, "But we have as much space as we want, so why stay small?"
