"I very much am an Outlander, yes. A lot of the Naturals won't ever let you forget it, and will hold it against you." The warning was given with as much kindness as possible, more a precaution than anything else. His latest foray with Korbin had cemented in his head that he was definitely considered apart, untrustworthy just because he came from someplace different. "That isn't to say all are like that." He added on with a small smile. "And yes. One day I'll visit a shrine and find out which of the 'gods' here decided to gift me with the ability."
He decided that he liked this woman. She was unique, as they all were, but also engaging, and keen to learn. He appreciated that in others, and hoped to have the same qualities reflected in himself too. He nodded as she gave her answer to his question on her plans for Flowerbirth - it was a topic easily welcomed by may during the Longnight, something to look forward to, something to get them through this dreary time. A grin touched his face as she spoke of her curiosity getting her killed. "Hopefully not before you get to learn about all those creatures," he added with a soft laugh.
"Not yet," he answered to the question posed to him. "It's definitely a goal of mine. Kia - my girlfriend - and I will be heading to the Grounds come Flowerbirth, to catch up with her family. And then onto Torchline for some exploring." His expression seemed to soften into a wholesome, quietly satisfied state as he spoke of Kia and their plans, a simple happiness that their relationship brought him clearly evident. "And then I also have plans for here. Warden Aristomache asked me to be her 'Chief of Agriculture', so I have plans that will be put into motion when the season allows it, that will require a lot of work."
