Closed Wandering (Crypt Insatem)

[Cassiel]

32nd Day of Winter, 512 AV. It was late morning when Cassiel found herself lost in the maze of stony streets that made up Syliras. She had been looking for a bookshop she’d heard some intimidating looking knights talk about, but had somehow ended up lost in thought and probably far from where she wanted to be. She let out a frustrated sigh as she turned round yet another corner and headed down another nameless street. Desperate, Cassiel looked around the near empty road for someone who could help her. She didn’t particularly want to ask for help, but she conceded that she would have to. She quickly spotted a tall, dark haired man who had paused at the side of the lane. She took a deep breath and strode towards him, straightening her back so as to appear taller. “Hi, uh, I’m sorry to bother you but would you mind telling me how to get to The Undeniable Interest?” she asked when she reached him, furrowing her brows uncertainly. She pushed a strand of rust coloured hair out of her eyes and then held out her hand for the stranger as she introduced herself; “I’m Cassiel, by the way.”
