Bold adventurer who "favors the direct approach".
Paladin who isn't breaking their oaths, they're absolutely destroying them.
Kallixenia sits with her fellow paladins in the dining hall, the object of altogether too much attention since her encounter with the gods. Her mind is elsewhere, near two days afterwards.
"She should have sent a message by now." She says, moping over her dinner. "What if she's in trouble?"
"Gods, gaze upon your divine champion!" Nephele chuckles. "See her in all her might, laid low by one day without her widdle pwincess saying she wuvs her."
"You're such a dick, Nephele." Chides Athis, but she's also stifling a laugh.
"It's two days, now." Kallixenia states pitifully. "She didn't message me last evening either."
"Maybe it's the gods?" Offers Pherusa. "Maybe after they talked to you, they told her it was all taken care of, and now she's just waiting for you to get back?"
Nephele and Athis nod along, but Kallixenia shakes her head.
"No, they said it's hard for them to communicate. Besides, Lunaeris would want to check in even if she knew I was on the road." She says. "Something's wrong, I know it."
"Maybe..." Athis says, brainstorming. "Maybe magic doesn't work on you anymore? Maybe that's your new gift?"
"I don't feel like magic doesn't work on me." Says Kallie, looking at her hands.
"Do you feel any different at all?" Asks Nephele. "Maybe they haven't changed it yet."
"No, but that would still mean that magic should work on me."
"Oh. Right."
"Maybe you should keep meditating, and they'll keep you updated?" Suggests Athis.
"Athis. Nephele. Focus." Says Kallixenia. "What if Lunaeris is in trouble?"
"She's fine, Kallixenia." Achaia says. "She's a terrifying ball of fire, way I hear it. She can handle herself."
"Right. You're right." Kallixenia says, nodding. "She's probably fine. Everything's fine."
"SER KALLIXENIA!" Comes a howl from the doorway.
Patchwork wanderer who's really tired of hearing about this Theseus guy and his stupid ship.
