Getting A Feel for the Place . . .
"Understood," Crevasseus said to the girls. He stood slowly, letting his Chameleon spell dissipate. He once again came into view, like a camera coming into focus.
First impressions, Crevasseus. First impressions, he silently scolded himself.
"Nadia, Tori, do either of you have some scrap cloth I could borrow?" he asked, attempting to keep his head low and his hair over the tip of his nose. I think it would be best if I covered my . . . handicap, just in case it scares people.

No, but you could use some feathers or paper. I can manipulate paper into a very neat blindfold.
I don't think that it'll be necessary, though. People seem pretty open and friendly, here.
Good point. Still, it makes sense if you don't want people to see that. Hold still.
‾▿‾Tori grabbed a commonplace notebook out of the subspace storage that her headband holds and carefully crafted two pages into a blindfold. One page was folded around to wrap around the back of Crevasseus' head, and it was loosely folded so that it was more like a hollow pipe, but not cylindrical. This left a slot beside each of his temples available for the front piece, which was folded more tightly to seem smaller. The pieces fit together like PVC pipes, completing a small blindfold. It barely covered Crevasseus' eye sockets, but "barely" counts.‾▿‾
There ya' go. Pick up your stuff, then go ahead and walk off the side; the ground is not even five meters below us.
‾▿‾Keeping the notebook on her hands, Tori walked off Glyphus' back and dropped to the ground. Nadia followed suit.‾▿‾

"Thank you,Tori. I'm pretty sure I have everything," Crevasseus said as he checked the pockets in his trench coat.
Crevasseus, satisfied that he had everything, pulled The Fellsgot from one pocket and activated the extending mechanism. He hopped off of Tori's mount, landed, and took three paces out. He then began tapping the ground around him in search of obstacles, mostly waiting for the girls and/or townsfolk to start conversing with one another.

"Hiya! My name's Rin. You look kinda', uh, skittish. What's up?"

‾▿‾As Crevasseus left Glyphus, the winged beast seemed to wink out of existence. Tori and Nadia were wary of the approaching stranger, partly because of their youth in this realm and largely due to the fact that she had a giant friggin' beatstick. It's a bit of a deterrent, you know? Yeah, we seem a little skittish! Shit.‾▿‾
Uh, yeah. We're Tori, Nadia, and Crevasseus. We're kinda' . . . new around here . . . and we were wondering where we could learn about the cultural norms, especially on food, here.
‾▿‾After pointing to the appropriate units while naming them, Tori intentionally left things as ambiguous as she could while still trying to make progress in the party's goals. Nadia intentionally kept her gob shut.‾▿‾

Rin idly tapped her finger on the handle of the bludgeon that was resting behind her, but her expression didn't change.
"New to the village or the realm? If you're just new to the village, I can give you a tour, but if you just got to Houcm, the best way to learn the differences between it and wherever you're from is to read about them at the Atypical Institution."

Crevasseus, intentionally saying nothing, smiled. He was concerned that he could hear the girl tapping on her weapon, though he couldn't tell what it was.
I've got a bad feeling about this, he thought.

‾▿‾Though they were wary of their situation and knew that it was just to lie in life-or-death situations, they had no proof that this was, in fact, a life-or-death matter, and the honest answer seemed as good as any.‾▿‾
New to the realm. Where is this institution of which you speak, and what is the entry cost?

"It's way southwest from here. If you go back across the Abyssal Sea, you reach the Chaos Beach, then you go through the Mythic Thicket to get to the Crash Pastures. You'll see the Mistvalley Lake to the south. The mountain path to the west of that is what you want. If you want an escort, the tavern is right over here. My clan meets up in there and organizes parties for protection."
Rin motioned her hand toward the Muddy Breeze, behind her and rightward.

BACK?! We have to go BACK over the sea? As in MORE flying? are you nuts?!
Crevasseus silently screamed at her. He was carefully keeping his thoughts from showing, as he leaned on The Fellsgot. He was tired as it was, and in desperate need of a drink.
Well, stupid, she did say "tavern". "Tavern" normally means food and drink.

‾▿‾There was a short pause while the ladies processed their thoughts. They mixed relief at the fact that the locals were both capable of intercommunication and not apparently hostile with consideration of the present offer.‾▿‾
Got it. Nadia and I rarely travel with much company, but we don't really know what we'll be up against. Just a while ago, right after we all got to an island in the middle of the sea, we were attacked by a giant squid-thing.
‾▿‾Tori didn't want to go into further detail before hearing the reaction. For all that she knew, the party could have killed off some local deity or some crap. In retrospect, making sure that it was dead, not KOd, might not have been the best foresight.‾▿‾

"Yeah, there are a lot of those. Did you at least get any decent loot from it?"
Rin led them toward the nearest doors to the Muddy Breeze and added,
"By the way, where are you all from?"

Crevasseus followed behind the ladies, tapping The Fellsgot in front of him and wondering if he should answer that question.
What harm can it do?
He waited for the girls to answer, showing what little chivalry he was aware he had.

Nadia and I are from the planet Kevkuoh of the Soluna System. That's the name of the dimension and the monogalactic universe.

"I come from the planet of Varet, it can be located in the topmost corner of the Rubvec universe."
He paused.
"Then again, that's in a different dimension altogether. Locating it from here may be a tad difficult."
