Fokiri Village

"Hmm?" Renatus said looking up, "Well, I was thinking the croissant with cheese." He responded, glancing back down at the list. He sat it down. "What are you thinking?"  

[Cecily D Aria]

"The potato casserole," Lucinda replied. "It sounds tasty."  

[Ean_arico]

"Yeah, it does." Renatus said smiling. When the waitress arrived, Renatus ordered his croissant and a cup of tea.

Lucinda ordered her meal, also getting a cup of tea. "So what should we do after this?" she asked him.  

[Ean_arico]

"I'm not sure." Renatus said looking down. "But, how long have you been away from home?" he asked.  

[Cecily D Aria]

"I visited not too long ago," Lucinda replied with a shrug. "Why?"  

[Ean_arico]

"I was thinking of visiting my tribe." Renatus said turning his head to look out the window. "It's been a long time since I've seen my family." he said, struck with sudden homesickness.  

[Cecily D Aria]

"Oh, I see, where is your tribe?" Lucinda asked him.  

[Ean_arico]

"In Lurugan Swamp." Renatus replied. "It's quite a trek"  

[Cecily D Aria]

Lucinda nodded. "But if you want to see your family, we should go."  

[Ean_arico]

Renatus smiled. "Thank you Lucinda." He said graciously. The waitress returned with their food and drink. Renatus took a large bite of the croissant, before sipping the hot tea, then adding slight sugar.

Lucinda picked up her fork and began to gracefully eat her own breakfast. "Do you want to leave today?" she asked.  

[Ean_arico]

"As soon as possible." Renatus said from behind his tea. He sat the cup down on the saucer and exhaled. "But whenever you feel like leaving is fine with me."  

[Cecily D Aria]

"We can leave after breakfast," Lucinda replied. "I've got nothing more to do here."  

[Ean_arico]

"Right." Renatus said smiling. He hoped that his village was OK. it had been years since he had seen his family or friends there. He had changed so much over that time that he might not even be welcomed, he had become so tame and human like in his travels...
