REMI

the alchemist

What happened to it? Where to begin? My shop was ransacked when I left the Grounds and a woman called Maea took it. I said she could keep it. As for the bottom of the ocean bit, well, that's where her body currently is. "It was taken out to sea and never quite made it back again." Remi answered, rather awkwardly, after a moment. He searched Finn's face—improperly reading in his own tells to what he saw there—to discern whether the man might be able to read minds.

Nodding and taking a breath as if preparing for something, the Alchemist skirts around the Spyglass and climbs the stairs to his porch. Before he reaches the last, he shakes out his wings onto the flowers planted in a basket, before they slip back into and against his body. His magical shirt makes all of this possible showing no tearing of the fabric. If only he'd made it waterproof as well.

Gesturing for Finn to take a seat, for a moment Remi continues to stand. "Can I...get you anything? A drink?"
