Despite the woman's dramatization, Nova's interest goes up in smoke faster than flint. She purses her lips, humming a flat note. "Mm. That's boring. They're just normal people." Adventurers and explorers don't have the danger she'd hoped for, more like obnoxiously curious people who wound up stuck in a tower. However... Nova grins, tilting her head as she suggests, "But maybe they're protecting a treasure of some kind?" Now that she could get behind, and she grants the Spire another flicker of attention.
Nodding her head, her smile brightens, happy that she's not the only one who's heard of the mystery in the Inner Quarter. Obviously not enough people have vanished to concern the general public, but it's just enough to spark rumors, and theories. "Right! I wonder if they're just lonely and need a new friend every few years." She giggles, clasping her hands behind her back as she imagines an old, lonely spirit having tea with a blank-staring captive.
