Zi'da 70 717, Late Afternoon
Location: Andaris, The Docks
She'd just arrived at the docks a while ago and made her way off the ship, already curious as to what antics Andaris had waiting for her to discover. The kingdom of Rynmere was a new but welcome change given her expenditure overseas, even if she liked the idea of sailing it was somewhat to an extent. Eventually all that water just became a constant sight which grew older with each passing Trial, plus the cold nights and mornings weren't very enjoyable in a sailing ship also. With her bag in tow over he shoulders Kayleigh marched down the docks, and onto the trail to Andaris to hopefully start her search there.
"Well well. You finally made it." A voice registered in her mind as she stopped to turn and see who addressed her, surprise to find that it was none other than the cloaked individual from Ne'haer.
"Y-you?!" She gasped as she nearly reached for her sword already, defensive over the fact this stranger had yet again appeared before her.
"Correct." He mocked with a cross of his arms while the hood mimed that of a nod. "Finally decided to look elsewhere for little Higan? Well no worries, he's being looked after quite well. Your father too by the way. They're both a bit of an interest to us."
"My... father?" Her angry look lessened into more of a surprised one next.
"Yeah, go figure. Looks like the master has a use for him too..." He then released his arms from their cross over and shrugged. "Still doesn't know what to do with you though."
"What's that suppose to mean?!" She called out bitterly.
"It means that, for now, you're no good to any of us. So enjoy the time you have, and until then do whatever it is you... people do." He responded with his back turned to her.
"Where's Higan?!" Kayleigh outright demanded with a few steps made to follow, however she stopped when he turned to point past her. It appeared to be some sort of rundown shack, where sailors and locals alike were coming and going as they pleased.
"Check there and see if he's inside, he is the reason you're here after all. Not that you'll find him here, but I'm sure you'll be glad to meet daddy dearest inside."
"Daddy?... Aelorn's in there?" She inquired as she looked from the building back to where the figure was, however it looked as he had yet again disappeared into thin air somehow. "Where?" She muttered under her breath as she looked all around to see if she could spot him, that had made not once but twice since she'd failed to see how he could vanish. That is if he actually vanished. Kayleigh hadn't been able to determine much about this person, aside from the fact he was working with others became apparent once he mentioned 'the master'. So who were they?
Higan wasn't here as that became apparent, but was he speaking true when Aelorn was brought up? Kayleigh could only find out for herself to be certain, and that would only happen once she investigated the shack that people appeared to be frequenting.
