The camp had been set up a little before sunset.
Tog ended up drinking with Hildra and talking about their lives.
You took the opportunity to have a conversation with the other girls.
"The disguise is fine, but I need help with how to introduce myself? Could you help me forge a false identity?"
"Sounds impractical, why tie yourself to a single identity, won't it make it easier for them to track you down?"
Emilia said somewhat confused by your approach to the problem.
"Well, if the identity is imperfect, yes. But if we do it right, it would be easier to disappear as another citizen."
it was Anny who asked then.
"Okay, it's a good plan, but we need a good story that explains why he has no connections and what he looks like."
Emilia jumped to your rescue, forging an absurd story.
"How about this. He was born on the border of the wasteland, but his village was wiped out by Chimeras,
which he managed to evade by hiding-"
"Emilia stop, no one survives chimera raids."
"That's why it's dramatic. Nobody would pay attention to the rest of the story.
It would be so flashy that the rest of the mistakes don't matter."
"Emilia, we don't want it to be flashy." Said Anny trying to discourage her.
"Do you enjoy being a wet blanket?"
"I'm not a wet blanket. You just don't understand what's at stake."
"Then what do you propose?"
You were also a bit intrigued by what she would say.
"He was born to a large family of seven in a farm in the outskirts of the Hesin port city.
His only interaction with other elves was his family and the occasional visit to the ghetto.
With the passing of his father he seeks better fortune in a city."
Emilia and you stared at her for a while in silence.
that was a good cover.
"That’s not fair, you just gave him your backstory!"
"I did not. I only have one brother and left for studying."
Emilia pouted a bit, complaining that the story was incredibly stale.
"Can we at least add that he ran way fater sleeping with some baron’s daughter.
It would explain why he left in a rush."
She said trying to inject some drama into your lie.
"That's not a bad idea." Anny agreed.
Emilia celebrated her small victory while Anny chuckled.
Shortly after, Jericho passed some soup bowls.

[Good disguise: Non-elves assume you are an elf; elves you talk to take a DC 20 Insight roll to realize something is wrong, but will be unsure what.]
[Upgrading the disguise further will require advanced techniques or magic.]
