Some big posts incoming. Forgive the length, a bit of a lore dump, but think of it as setting the stage for the quest now after the prologue of sorts before now.>>5436864>>5436935>>5436947>>5436834>>5436830>>5436981>Learn what you can, or seek help from the overseer or any guards. Even if it's just trying to fill in any blanks with questions.Although you are not in any way reduced in power than you ever were, you certainly are reduced in station. Having to hide among these humans and pass as a mortal, and abandon your dead homeland like the rest of them. No doubt you are a human goddess, sharing in their struggle and fate. Of course you intend to remedy this bleakness, but before you can assume your rightful place you must understand the world you now inhabit.
<span class="mu-s">"I could... spare a little time, yes. But you aren't leaving with your family?"</span>
<span class="mu-r">"I'll rejoin them soon enough. First I hoped to learn what's most different between this new land and the old. It's been harder for me, you know, from Namar."</span>
Having bid the mortal family farewell you remain behind to ask the overseer for some more time, that he might answer some questions. You answered his before, so it's only fair. And innocent enough to pass this off as concern for adjusting to your new home, a worried refugee trying her best for her family. Not that it matters that much, when your beauty is enough for him to stay, and your presence soon makes him forget about any concerns or responsibilities.
Although you would prefer to be dealing with royalty rather than lowborns, for such an unfamiliar hierarchy of the humans in these times, it seems wise not to skip rungs on the ladder without fully knowing them.
<span class="mu-s">"Well you know what it was like before, where did you depart from?"</span>
<span class="mu-r">"Colibra... it was a nightmare."</span>
