A Helping Hand
➸ Thimryl's eyes softened when Filaurel explained his condition, it would explain why it seemed he floated across the ground. The soldier, however, held respect for the tailor for finding the means to overcome the disadvantage dealt to him. Not wanting to pity the elf, he smiled, even though the other couldnt see it. "Im certain were it not for your affliction, you would have been my instructor or comrade in the military. You seem to have the makings of a great warrior. My mother had an eye for telling such things, and I want to believe I've inherited that from her, knowing how to judge one's character." he mused, continuing to carry the man.
The raven spirit returned, though it had nothing to show for its efforts. Regardless, Thimryl took a moment to make good on his promise, offering the corvian spirit some aether for its efforts, which brought a delightful sqawk from the spirit, well, at least he believed it was happy. It was kind of hard to tell sometimes, as it was an ornery spirit sometimes. When he spoke of his rune, he began to muse which one it was. He knew a little about other rune magics, as being a mage himself, how could he not? There were only two that came to mind, Elementalism or Kinetics. He wasnt sure which one, but he felt it wasnt his place to pry; instead, he chose to go a more familiar conversation topic.
"How long have you been a tailor? Is that something you have always wanted to do? Besides being a soldier, of course?" he asked him, briefly taking his eyes off the streets before them. He was trying to make Filaurel think of anything other than his current situation, hoping it would cheer him up. "Have you had any famous clients? I'm sure a man of your talents has had interesting interactions with nobility." ➸
