The days have been busy as I continue my studies at the Archery Guild and I am pleasantly surprised by the development of my skills. The now is starting to feel like an extension of myself now and for that I am glad.Â
While I still wander the woods alone I have made efforts to try and intermingle with the locals. Last night I was awestruck by a Mi'qote who sat upon a lamppost in New Gridania as he was crafting materials. It just struck me as an interesting spot to make goods. And while I was impressed, as he looked down on me, he did not seem quite as impressed by me, for which I understand the sentiment. Perhaps he was simply confused why a stranger would suddenly be in awe of him.Â
I was approached this morning by a young troupe of Gypsies who asked me about joining their group. I politely declined but did have a friendly conversation with one of their chefs, who was kind enough to offer me some fine steaks to help me with rations during my treks into the woods. I also saw many folks who seem pleasant enough around town, but I have yet to take the first step in meeting any of them.Â
