Our Sick Story Thus Far

Yeah she was definitely a little anxious, that much he could pick up on, but she hadn't attacked him yet so that was a good start. He watched her with his mismatched gaze of fire as she turned around to look at him. She didn't seem overly startled either which was good because he certainly hadn't meant to sneak up on her. His muscles remained rather tense though and he couldn't shake the feeling that he always needed to be prepared to fight or flee - it was a feeling that came naturally now. He'd been on his own for so long now that it was just easier to avoid tense situations than it was to tackle everything head on.

He relaxed slightly when she admitted that she was worried and lost. He could see why she'd get a bit disoriented. Every tree looked similar and it had snowed after all - no wonder she was a little stressed out. Sympathy blossomed then and Mortar sat down and looked around for a moment. Other than her recent tracks from pacing he couldn't see any others and he had no earthly clue where she came from. He wasn't sure where her home was, she hadn't mentioned it yet, but he didn't mind the idea of helping her find her way back to wherever it was if she had a general idea of it's location.

"I'm sorry you got lost. Maybe if you tell me where you came from I can try and help you find your way back?"

That had been the good thing about traveling all over the place looking for Ray and then having to do the same when she'd wanted to look for her family. He had a good idea of the layout of the land. He wasn't so familiar with the north, but he'd been accustomed to the lands that surrounded the old lands of Donostrea and had even become familiar with the south, east, and even a few of the western lands. So long as she was from around there he could help.

"No I'm not from around here." Where was he from? "I haven't had a home in a while so I guess you could just call me a nomad?" Which was true. He never stayed in one place for long before he left again to go some place new. It wasn't a lifestyle he enjoyed, but he was stuck with it all the same. "I'm Mortar by the way."
