( if she wasn't already filled with dread, the sermon only compounded keyleth's fears. it's bad enough that she doesn't seem to have any access to her spells (not even wild shape, what the fuck is up with that?), but now she's being told she has this great purpose. she misses her friends, she misses vax, and all she wants to do is get the hell out of here.
only she still doesn't know where "here" is. revelbrooke isn't exactly a place any exandrian would be familiar with. the continued reference to the old ones frightens her much in the same way that hearing the name briarwood might have filled percy with a deep-rooted desire for revenge once upon a time.
but she's stuck here, so it's time to play nice. she puts on her bravest face and...gets thwacked with a piece of parchment raining from the sky? well, that's strange. she gets a glimpse at a couple, but since she can't make any headway out of it, she decides it clearly must be time for a team-up and immediately hones in on the nearest person: a human who looks to be close to her in age. she thinks she sat near him during the sermon, so he must be new here, too. she rushes up to him and tries to peek over her shoulder, trying to get his attention, but it seems like he's engrossed in the piece of paper he has been mulling over. )
I asked if you wouldn't mind helping me. Everyone else seems just to be collecting them, but you looked like you were also trying to figure out what they say. Maybe we can work together?
