The Nerevyn was startled indeed to hear the somewhat unfamiliar voice call their name.
Though they recognized the man as soon as they turned to look. They had been one of the Anirians.
It alarmed them perhaps more so than a stranger approaching might have.
Until just a moment ago they had...
It had been another restless night. At this point they had begun to dread evenings. Their last unintended night stroll had ended up outside the castle. Still they couldn't deny sleep forever.
Alas not soon after their eyes finally drifted closed than they had slipped into that trance like...
Nilamani offered an amused smile at the Twin's differing reactions. There were certainly a few students they had met that were very personable, but these two seemed especially friendly.
It was a bit of a breath of fresh air in a way.
"I'm told both the bitter and the sweet are made from the...
Nilamani chuckled, they sure were an excitable pair. If anything it might have been stranger if they had forgotten, but then it had been a fairly brief greeting before.
Nilamani had let Lysander do most of the talking then.
They hummed in thought "Nick Names hm?....Then I suppose you can call...
Their tail walloped entirely the wrong person. What ever retort Nilamani might have had died in their throat.
They weren't even sure if they should count it fortunate that Pomrick seemed not to have associated his tumble with the lashing. On the one hand it was a relief he seemed more or less...
"ah!" A slightly undignified yelp sounded from Nilamani's throat as they felt the unmistakable pain of one more boot. Only this time whoever it was didn't even have the good sense to remove it.
Their ill mood boiled into a simmering irritation.
They slowly turned their gaze to meet the menace...
Despite not being from Alliria, Nilamani had found themself helping out at their booth that morning. This was because Thadd who was and whose house had made a sizeable contribution of goods to the booth, had a strong tendency to accidentally break things. That and his roommates complete...
The moonlight shimmered across the small pond in the garden. A serpentine tail dipped into the water of the pond, it's scales casting iridescent reflections.
The moon casting the garden in a pale blue light as if the whole scene were underwater already. It might have been soothing.
If it...
At the back of the classroom cracking open the door Nilamani peeked inside.
As they feared the maester was already full force into the lecture. They hesitated clearly torn between entering and turning right back around.
No, it was probably too late for that. They did their best to sneak in...
Nilamani smiled kindly though concern creeped back onto their face.
".....well...perhaps for now we ought to go find someone to do something about that nose. Then maybe we can have a good think about what sort of things you like doing.....surely there's at least a club you could enjoy.....Maybe...
Their smile grew slightly hesitant again as they considered Salak 's question. A bit a trap in it's breadth.
As they quietly debated internally over what was too much, what was safe enough to be trivial, Lysander Docatto Valestri bought them some time with their declaration about diplomacy and...
"well...." While Nilamani had warmed up slightly to this little cultural exchange, they still felt weary by the prospect of sharing. It wasn't as thought they hadn't spoken of it before. Salak wasn't the first to ask and surely they wouldn't be the last. Nilamani had gotten used to this line of...
Nilamani nodded taking the change of subject easily. They could see Pomrick slowly drawing out of their shell a bit. It seemed they had best nurture it.
"That's right, Just some little village called Insmouse, not far from the city. They have a dock there but it's not busy like the docks inside...
Nilamani held back the urge to laugh. It was a very honest answer.
It was certainly an answer without ambition or motive. They hesitated a little at a loss for how to respond.
Nilamani had gotten to the head in the clouds academics, the dream chasers and the power seekers.
Pomrick didn't fit...
What the tall one had said was all too true. Nilamani was pleasantly surprised to hear such reasonable words and an affable tone.
Just as those of them here from Elbion might have reason to fear, so too might the Anirians have their own anxieties.
Nilamani imagined that their little stunt of...
