Was it any surprise that the soul shepherd came? He had walked along the ocean's edge but not yet ventured into it, respecting its power as well as admiring its beauty, but Remi's call drew him to it once more. He came wearing only a sleeveless wrapped tunic, having learned that too many layers were a hindrance in this sun-warmed land.
Well, sun warmed on most days. Today was not one of those days, and the water streamed over his skin and dripped from the end of his long ponytail as he made his way along the strand. His feet were bare, but his lantern hung from his belt, a fitting addition to bring to such an undertaking, he hoped.
He hadn't expected to run into Maea here, but he gave her a smile and a warm nod, for though they had parted within the Guild it had been on better terms than their previous conversation. As for Remi...
"How can I help?" he asked simply, the question holding more than one meaning but the alchemist could choose which he wanted to answer in his own time.
