SA | Shepherd | Harbinger

SA| Esin | Mullah - Kajeayn

"Many Serorans are wary of the Glass tower. How can Shepherd make the tower seem more accessible? Does he go investigate it or find a different way to prove it's not harmful? Maybe he finds a way to converse with some Vagabonds that might be drawn by the tower?"

Man, I've been working on this for what feels like forever and it's finally done! Shepherd is going to attempt to show the tower in a better light in order to sway her herd members towards it, starting first of all, with her old friend Esin. If you can convince the mullahs, you can convince anyone.

Kaj: "Her ears twitched, hearing the soft wisp of wind passing through feathers a moment before a familiar figure landed down lightly in the sand, sending up a cloud of dust. Her head turned, and though the whites of her eyes still showed, skin shivering nervously, her posture relaxed at once at the sight of the other mullah. Her shoulders dropped, a breath rushing out of her as her ears lifted, mouth turning in a sincere, if tense, smile.

“Shepherd,” She greeted in relief. Another mullah, thank the stars, perhaps Shepherd would have some insight about this atrocity.

The name kiddo made her ears flick, and she tried to stifle the immediate flash of bitterness that it produced. She was a fellow mullah, not a kid, but many older then her felt the need to remind her of her age, as if she were not aware.

She took another, steadying breath, turning her head slightly to look at the tower once more, gaze flickering hesitantly over it.

Unbeknownst to her, her third eye remained trained on Shepherd, unblinking.

“Does this not bother you?” She asked bluntly. Her tail flicked towards the tower, ears flattening as she gazed up at it, frowning. She made no move to approach it again, edging back another step."

Me: "Esin’s brash words quickly buried Shepherd’s hopes. She was definitely not a sympathizer. Time for plan b then, it seemed.
Tilting his head to the side, the harbinger followed Esin’s gaze and looked up the length of the tower, slowly and thoughtfully.
“I wouldn’t say ‘bother’ is quite the right word,” he mused.
“It’s certainly...different, that’s for sure. I’ve never seen anything like it, especially not this-“ Shepherd said and gestured at the water running upwards inside the glass. “It’s beautiful, in a way, yet unnatural at the same time...”
He let the silence hold for just a moment before looking back to Esin. They had met a few times before, though this was prior to Shepherd taking up the moth-eaten mantle of a harbinger. He had to evaluate her with new eyes now. Figuring out wether to lead her directly or from the shadows was easy, but determining how to go about it would be harder. He needed more information.
He cleared his throat quietly and dropped to a reverent tone. “You’ve heard what the people are saying, right? About this new god? About the new city in Sirith? They say she brings change, of some sort.”
