Welcome to the Faerie Feast!
After your have gained your wings, you are met by a feast on the second floor with all that the forest can offer you. Tables and chairs are set up everywhere along the walkway between the houses, allowing the new visitors to meet and greet - or try to hide in the corners and eat berries all by themselves.
Try your new wings to be the first to grab those delicious crumbs of walnut bread? Or say hi to your party lights, courtesy of some excited glow worms and flies that just want to be your best friends.
Explore how your new gem works, try put your leaf clothes or decide to head further into the tree, seeing just what kind of place your have stumbled into. Maybe you will even get a glimpse of those hairy legs on the fourth floor?
[ To call Ramiel a guard would not be inaccurate. The exception would be that he is technically guarding others from Wyrden herself, as opposed to the contrary.
The young woman nods, though her visage returns somewhat to its neutral state. She knows what Merri is talking about - doing things with love made them better - but it's a saying that doesn't really apply to her Panopticon anymore. Everyone did things in order to survive. Most did not have time to spare for anything more than that. ]
We don't have to pay or anything? Are you sure?
[ For once, Ramiel's gaze diverts from her, and he moves to inspect the bread. His voice is smooth, but evidently synthetic. ]
Total nutrient composition: 71 percent carbohydrates, 17 percent fats, 12 percent protein. Trace minerals detected, significant amounts of sodium and potassium. Advise concurrent water intake.
[ Merri jumps, eyes wide at the strange voice. Just what...?? What was that voice, what were those words? Coming from a world without robots or machines, the word synthetic means nothing to her.
...She's definitely dropping this Ramiel from her list of suitable boyfriends list though. ]
I don't see a shopkeeper around to pay to... It should be alright.
[ AND IF THERE'S ONE... well, she can part with a bangle. And right, names, in the middle of doubletaking at everything this girl and her guard's saying, she's forgotten. ]
[ It's evident that Merri hasn't seen robots before - but then again, quite a few people here haven't. It must be rare.
Nice to see that the food here isn't charged, though it comes as a bit alien to her. Even if it was, she could work it off - just like how she always did. ]
That's good, then. I'll take one. [ Just one, for now. If it wasn't nutritionally sufficient, she could come back for more once other people took their share. ]
Nice to meet you, Merri. [ She nods respectfully, noting the lack of a surname or a callsign. ] I'm Wryden, and this is Ramiel. He's my android partner, so he doesn't talk much.
[ No use giving her call-sign in an area without signal. And she's also learned the value of not telling strangers the true nature of Accessories - best to just keep it vague to avoid questions. ]

[ Wyrden nods, looking slightly more relaxed now. ] Thanks, Ramiel. It's safe.
