Seated and warming after the trek through Halo's cold, Jigano nodded gratefully at the guard who was sent to run the errand and settled in to answer what he could. A military mind's questions, perhaps on monsters or threats that might come from the Grounds, on preparations for Deepfrost and LongNight, on the monsters that sent refugees willing to brave blizzards from a land with a far milder climate. All of these he had expected, or perhaps questions of government and guilds...
The mention of Quanil immediately alerted him to a source of confusion soon to come and he braced for it, finding the question uncomfortable to say the least as he reached up to rub the back of his neck with a sigh. "Quanil is... unique," he said delicately. "But no, it is definitely not something I encourage. Lately I've been trying to discourage it. It's uncomfortable for both myself and the other guildmembers, but I also don't want to hurt their feelings. Still, they're young yet and will hopefully grow out of it. Loren can probably give a more balanced opinion of me, given that he's a former member of my guild. Ingrid as well," he added after a moment's thought, though he'd hardly seen the priestess since she'd joined.
"May I ask you some questions, too?" He hadn't meant to put her on the spot, after all, and perhaps a trade would be more comfortable than a one-sided interrogation?
