[ This is evidently the first time she is doing this, anyone can tell and she knows it; it is clear by the little frown, the uncertainty. there is nervousness and fear, too, but those she knows how to hide. A moment later and the confusion is tucked away and she offers a little graceful bow ]

Fellow residents, I hope this finds you well.

[ She knows grace well, the girl. The one who came before wore it a little better than her but a baseborn girl must not have the gracefulness of a highborn lady. ]

I am Alayne Stone, a newcomer to your city. Some of you I have met already, those who have been kind enough to help me upon my arrival, my thanks to you.

[ she tucks a strand of chestnut brown hair behind an ear ]

I ask for advice and counsel. I know little of the ways of the city nor what is expected of me during my stay. I know of the gods, a little.

[ and already she fears them, all of them ]

Are there any vendors in the city? I am searching for fabrics, in specific and if - if there is a need for tunics or breeches or dresses, I would be pleased to offer my services, I was oft told my stitch-work and embroidery are pleasing.

[ a breath. she attempts a smile ]

My thanks for your time and your counsel.

We do. It's a little crowded, but it's good being around people I know.

[Actually, if Adam thinks about it, all his friends are in Hadriel. He didn't have many at home - never very good at making them - and somehow what few he has have all found their way here. He is very lucky.]

Are you living alone, or have you found people to stay with?

Only if it's crowded with the right people.

[Which, luckily, it is. Adam is not particularly trusting or fond of people. If his friends weren't here, there's no doubt that he'd be living alone. That would be a lot less safe, he thinks.]

It's good that you've found someone to stay with already. Have you settled in well?
