Re: Zelya & Aphrodi - Social Greetings
Lihua's morning on Sanctuary also hadn't been the most calm one. Yet, it had not been a happy or endearing adventuring to the streets. When she arrived, the first thing that was noticed were her ever-so-odd eyes. Although kids found them pretty and shiny, most just mumbled and whispered on the background, which made Lihua quite uneasy around the area. So, she had an idea!
A few gold spent, she had herself a pair of very big glasses! Perfect for hiding weird eyes! The thing is, however... The glasses only accentuated her depth vision problem that her eyes brought upon her, so she kept slamming herself into lamp posts and other not very soft objects, so she took them off.
Although, a distressed call from a old lady struck her ears, and she rushed to the scene. When she arrived there, she didn't find much other than a woman crying about her cabbages and a bound criminal. Since there wasn't much she could do, she at least tried to help the woman by putting her cart back in place and buying some of her lettuces. She could always wash them later.
She had come to Sanctuary to search for clues, but her heart skipped a beat and her brain ceased to work for a moment as she tried to process what she was seeing in the restaurant close to her. A Kitsune, one of the extinct races, casually nomming some chocolate. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and she wasn't going to waste it.
Entering the restaurant, she merely asked for a cup of hot chocolate as she awkwardly went towards the kitsune, shaking and stuttering a bit. "H-H-Hey... Could i, if not a nuisance, sit by your table, miss?"

Lihua nodded quickly when she was offered a opportunity to sit besides the kitsune, hastily taking a seat as she nervously presented herself. "H-Hello! My name is Lihua! I-Its a pleasure to meet you! And then she proceeded with the usual elven formalities when meeting someone... Except that, in all her nervousness, she forgot there was something called a table in front of her, and she received a faceful of wood when she tried to bow. "Owww..."
She quickly recomposed herself, giving Zeyla a smile as she sipped from her hot chocolate mug, which was quite delicious in fact! She then watched Zeyla speak with the girl. It was surprising how easily she readed that girl and figured out what she wanted, and she couldn't lie that she shared the same interests the girl did, although not exactly for the sake of petting a kitsune only. Petting her would not only be nice, but analyzing her fur and fox-like ears would help in her researches!
Slowly, she reached her hand to pet Zeyla, her ears scratching behind her ears softly as she did so. She was enjoying this, as a smile grew on her face. But she quickly felt like she was going too far, and retreated her hand, a bit embarassed. After that, she picked up a small notepad and a pen and begun to write something, before putting it down and looking at Zeyla. "S-Soo... I acknowledge that you must be a busy person, so sorry that if i drag this for too long, but... How do you even exist? Shouldn't kitsunes be extinct?"

Lihua was jubilant when Zeyla agreeded to answer her question, ready to write down any knowledge she had, but she was seemingly disappointed when she heard that Zeyla never met, or knew, another kitsune. It was her best chance to get knowledge no book had, so she was justifiably sad about it. But she eventually snapped out of it and was about to ask a different question before Zeyla asked if she wanted to know how she become a Kitsune. Lihua, of course, accepted.
She hastily picked up her mug of hot chocolate and followed Zeyla out of the restaurant, trying to pick up the pace and follow her around. She stopped asking questions to then listen to the story Zeyla was about to tell. After she told the whole story, Lihua was struck with silence for a moment, trying to process all that was said. It was so surreal, but it still made sense when pieced together. She then start scratching her chin, sighing. "So a magical conflict generated a reaction that resulted in a mutation... Given the nature of the transformation and the elements involving it, its nigh impossible to replicate, nor looks like it can be passed onto offspring..."
She continued to mumble for a bit, pondering about what she had learned. She also wanted to hug Zeyla due to how mistreated she was, but was too timid to do so. When she realized she had been mumbling for a long time, she snapped out of it, shaking her head. "A-Ah, sorry! I got a bit carried away... I-I would also hug you as a means to comfort, but that would be innapropriate... Ahem. I do this research because i seek a way to bring back those extinct races." She said, picking up her notepad and showing it to Zeyla, lots of notations and small doodles inside of it. "I just feel like they were caught in something they couldn't avoid... It's so unfair that they had to pay for something my race started.
She then picked up a book from her bag, but not opening it yet. She then looked at Zeyla and nodded. "Y-You can ask about my eyes if you want, i know you have been staring..."

Lihua couldn't help but ponder if she had said something wrong when Zeyla suddenly went deep in thought for a moment, her face displaying a calm look but her head was filled with worry and dread. Did she say something wrong? Did she poke too far into her personal life? Was pointing out the fact that she was staring rude? Lihua pondered about that for a while, before the sudden look from Zeyla almost made her scream.
Thankfully, she only commented on how her eyes were different from other races, which, well, she couldn't really disagree with. She then asked for a explanation for them, which Lihua promptly gave. "Well, my great-grandfather once dated a human... Which he cheated on. What he didn't know is that... She was a witch. And knew a lot of curses." She sighed, shaking her head. "Oh, the old fool..."
She then flinched a bit when she asked about her research, scratching her head a bit. "W-Well... My reserch hasn't given much fruits yet... Its just hard to get information that would help..."She sulked a bit, but immediately beamed right up when she heard that Zeyla knew someone that could help. "R-Really?! How much for me to take me to them?"

Even if Zeyla had next to none awareness, she could taste the amount of joy emanating from Lihua as she heard that it would be for free, jumping on the air and clasping her ankles together as she squealed. "Yippie!" She then shook Zeyla's hand really fast, smiling all the way through. She backed off when she started stretching, before listening to what she had to say.
She didn't really have much to do in this town, and she would probably bore herself to death if she had to wait for Zeyla, so she nodded and choosed to go with Zeyla. It couldn't be that bad, right? Its just a meeting, stay quiet and just let the people talk. "Sure, i'll go with you. Some bunch of tight-pants won't scare me!" She said with confidence, smirking.
Well, if staying outside was boring, listening to that wasn't much better. Those old guys were so rude to Zeyla, she wanted to speak up multiple times but knew better. Eventually one of them broke the last straw, Lihua clenching her fists as she got slightly up from her chair, but being put back by Zeyla. What she heard genuinly made her shiver, her now questioning how nice Zeyla really was.
At least when they were back at the caravan, she received her nice and friendly Zeyla back, which relieved her. She then got handed a covered meal and a cup of hot chocolate, which quite pleased her as she was as hungry as one could be. When she mentioned Cary, Lihua immediately tensed up, although she relaxed when Zeyla assured they would not do anything related to the Goddess of Death.
Before eating her snack, however, she had a question. She did not know if it was a good idea to ask it, but her intuition never did her wrong. Not too much, at least. "Hey, Zeyla... Did that guy's family really need to pay for what he did? What he said was really awful and i hate him for it, but his family could've been nice people who had nothing to do with that for all we know..." After asking that, she tensed up again, expecting backlash from Zeyla for questioning her decision.

Lihua had asked about the hearing that had occurred not long ago where Zelya had condemned a man and his family to vagrancy as a punishment for being unruly, immediately becoming tense afterwards. Zelya's eyes had motioned to look at the elf, but there wasn't any hint of anger in them from the question. "Had I only evicted him, and not his entire family, nothing would result- he would learn nothing. He could pledge his daughter to marry into an equally, if not slightly less wealthy family in order to merge assets. His wife could form a contract with another family, using their material assets as collateral, in order to temporarily help him. He could gather his other wealthy comrades and, together, establish a new business. Or, his wife could take over their former trade and have him living with them as a dependent. While it does sound cruel, the only way for me to establish the High King as the one in charge was to use him and his family as an example. Inevitably, he will suffer even more since he has to take his family with him. He'll either watch his wife and children leave him to live with a man who can care for them; or, even worse, watch them die slowly to starvation. His entire life from today will be marred with the knowledge that his arrogance and loose tongue, in a matter of minutes, cost him everything he's worked his entire life for." Zelya would say in a soft, calm tone. She would be using a very gentle tone so Lihua would know that she wasn't angry at all.
Zelya lifted one of her legs and crossed it over the other in a very ladylike manner. "Do not give him the honor of your hatred. He isn't worth it. What he said to me didn't hurt in the slightest, it just made me glad that I didn't grow up the same way he did." Zelya put on a friendly smile and said "How are you feeling about going to this shrine? Assuming all goes well, you'll be much closer to accomplishing your goal."
