Cathan's wariness of the new member of their group worried Kendall a bit but he tried to keep his sights clear. Prejudice was the reason he had been driven from his home. He had to give this woman her fair chance even if his friend was a little more wary of her. "Well I am excited to see the city even if it is more reformed as you say it is. I have heard great things about it. It seems a good of a place as any to stop while traveling." Although he did not want to admit it, Kendall was happy to hear the city was as safe as he had heard it would be. He was looking for adventure, there was no doubt about that. He was still getting used to everything though. The cycles and motions of being a male were very different from being a female. He needed to learn how to move differently, and fight differently. He was taller than he used to be and his weight was distributed much differently than it had once been. He needed time to find his rhythm again. He was happy to have Cathan by his side for that though. Even though Cathan was more beast than man he was still a man and he had been one longer than Kendall had been. A quick look around the forest made it quite evident that it was too late for Kendall to hunt. He could always have fire at his side to light the way but he was still scared to face the Wildlands even in the day. Morning would most likely be better for him to hunt. "I think I would hunt better during the day. We can use the food we have now and tomorrow we can head out for a hunt. Does that sound good?" Kendall was not sure if the Konti felt comfortable hunting at night. For all he knew, she loved to go running around in the dark. "Don't let me stop you two if you want to do though. I can keep an eye on the fire." He smiled at the words. He found more in fire than most men in his situation. Although, he was not sure there were any other men in his situation… A hint of blue caught Kendall's eyes as he looked over the Konti. There was something familiar about the sight. He stood up and saw in certainty what the mark was. It matched his own which burned of red, wrapping around his wrist. He was not sure whether to speak up about it. The previous Azenth he had met was more open about her mark although she seemed quite open about everything. This woman seemed much more reserved and he did not want to risk the end of her hammer because he asked the wrong question. Instead he pulled his sleeve up to show the red flames. "It is nice to see someone else touched by Ivak." He wanted to ask the woman how it happened, if only to compare it to his own experience. He wanted to know he was part of something even as he was leaving home. "You were touched by Ivak, right? I only ask because of the mark on your neck" He hoped she was one of the Azenth. If not, he could have just made an enemy with a large and powerful weapon. He had Cathan at his side but Kendall had a feeling this woman could take the two of them if the situation truly called for it. |
