Ohohoh, An!  An!  An An An!

Would this be a good opportunity for those who need to/want to maintain a noble bearing to perhaps climb the ladder along/beneath Anstarra?  Pond needs to broaden her vocabulary somewhat to further the image she wishes to adopt.  Bringing her into that sort of company would do wonders for her, although I'd need to have her update her wardrobe to even come close to being accepted.  And find someone willing to mayhaps guide the poor girl in the right direction.

Not entirely sure -how- this would fit in with her distant dream of someday being called a knight, but from that she's already acquired the most base mannerisms required to pull off this sort of feat, enough to have been taken as a Page.  And... she adores the language and mannerisms of the elite.  Tends to make her think of Azeyma :3 

So maybe, actually, it would work... hmm. *Ponders*

And no, she hasn't -actually- met any nobility, and so that naive image remains!  Ignorance is bliss, no?

Its interesting seeing someone else play a sophisticated Miqo'te. I have one as well, but its because he was not born in Eorzea so he has no tribal influence at all. He comes from...elsewhere

He is a former officer in the Flames so he is familiar with how people tend to act around high ranking officials such as nobles and the upper level of officers within the military. He also has contacts within the ranks of the Flames, Blades, and Sultan Sworn. And since he is a member to the Harbingers he would be easy for Anstarra to get in touch with him.

At any rate, I love the idea of her rising up from her tribal roots and reaching for the top. Will she try to take over one of the City States one day? Anstarra for Sultana!

He is has also been around military most of his life, serving as both a contractor and now a full time officer of the Immortal Flames (as well as some more dubious work for a sister organisation that is now non-existant) so has spent time at officers balls etc.

so I would be more than happy to help out, I've been looking for more rp as it is anyways XD

Ah, very good~ not only would it be helpful to have another member of the Flames allied with her (and another officer no less!), but anyone with connections to noble families in Ul'dah is bound to be useful. Additionally! Anstarra's taken a page/retainer under her wing, and is helping to tutor her in noble comportment; Nako'li could no doubt be of aid in that respect as well!
