"You got it, Boss!" Puck comes flying out of The Pegasus for his grand entrance, placing a hand on the man's forehead and flying over his face, producing enough magical powder on him to the man up and have him focus his eyes on the little elf.
"So he can see magical creatures--" You're surprised at seeing regular folk not completely indoctrinated by The See, but your soul disruption from overusing magic makes you trip on your feet and almost fall, were it not for Farnese pulling you up and holding your arm.
"I'll guide you there." She warmly smiles as she gets out of the caravan in time, the gesture being enough for you to smile back. Her reflex have really improved!
"Ah... So it's true... The witch did have an apprentice..." The man sees the magical book Farnese carries around to study with, mistaking her for the second witch in the forest. "It's been decades since we've seen each other, witch of the woods... I did not know you could change your appearance... Though if you prefer to remain anonymous and have a habit of changing your looks, perhaps you've always been a man?" He keeps his eyes locked onto yours with clear admiration.
Oh dear... It sure will be fun to explain this misunderstanding...
>I'm not the witch of this land, mister.>Uh, yes... It is I, the witch and my apprentice. We're here to save you from the trolls! (Whatever gets him to comply faster.)>You must be from the village, correct? What is your name?>You seem to be very trustful of said witch. Are they benevolent?>You are in terrible condition, my friend. Is this related to the trolls raiding your land?>Write-in.
