Caiside smiled, and finished off the last of his tea. Perhaps this place wouldn't be so bad, for the short term. He would have to buckle down and make some things he could trade with quickly though. Especially if the winters here were as bad as Jigano made them sound. Looking into a permanent place to stay would have to be top of his list, and perhaps he could try to coax one of the luxere to trust him. It shouldn't be too hard, Caiside had always been proud of his way with animals.
"I could only hope to be so gracious a host as you have been. If I had known there were people like you here, I would have stopped hiding in the forest much sooner." Caiside didn't necessarily see himself being the type to go out of his way to welcome someone new, not with how busy he planned to be. If the opportunity arose, he would be friendly, of course, but didn't plan on going out of his way for someone who couldn't help him.
"I won't need luck to find my way back home." Confidence dripped off Caiside's words, a self assured grin accompanying them. There had to be some kind of reason behind all this, all it would take to crack was time and effort. And if all else failed, he would throw himself to the mercy of the gods here, and hope they took enough pity on him to help. It wouldn't come to that point though, there was more than enough here for him to look into before he grew so desperate.
There were still questions buzzing around in Caisides mind, a few floating to the forefront of his mind as he looked around the teahouse again, eyes moving like he was searching for something. After a beat, he returned his gaze to the silver haired man across from him, and arranged his expression into one of curiosity. "You said before that you didn't want to return home, didn't you? What is so appealing about here as opposed to where you come from?"
