Lolotaru was always shocked by how hot it could get in Limsa Lominsa. Growing up in the desert, he knew heat, but it was different in Limsa.  You couldn’t hide from it. It was wet, sticky,pervasive, and only the breeze offered any comfort. As he stepped off of the ferry he took note of the crowd and frowned visibly. The docks were crowded today; the lalafell would feel no breeze. He did not relish the thought of being jostled about by the sweaty knees of the larger folk of the city. He sighed and began to push through the forest of legs, pressing forward towards the ramp up to the city proper.
As he walked, he became aware of,and increasingly distracted by, the stuffy, unpleasantly moist feeling of his skin beneath his scholar’s robe. He loved his robes, so full of pockets brimming with the associations of history. Nevertheless, the thought of spending the next several hours in the already dirty garments weighed on him and further soured his mood. And it was so stuffy in the Arcanists’ Guild!
As he crested the top of the ramp a breeze rolled in and he stepped to the side of the crowd, over to the edge of the Aetheryte Plaza to better feel it. The crowd was sparser here. He splayed out his arms, closed his eyes, and breathed in the thick, salty air. Maybe today wouldn’t be such a disappointment after all.
