If you could only see the beast you've made of me

There is a wolf wandering around the station. A large wolf. A large white wolf with blue eyes.

Because he woke up in a chamber near the gym, that's where he's likely to be found, but he's wandering now, trying to sniff out something, anything, to tell him what's going on. Now, of course, he's not just a wolf. He's also a man by the name of Garion (or Belgarion, technically) but given that a wolf can cover distances much faster than a human can, that he'll have the advantage of a nose that can sniff out nearly anything on his muzzle, and the fact that between his teeth and his claws, he'll have more a weapon in that form should he encounter anything dangerous...

He's always scouted as a wolf. Really, this is no change. Or he tries to remind himself it's very little change, even though he can't sense his Aunt Pol or his Grandfather or even Durnik anywhere. Even though his wife is nowhere to be found and he can't smell her, not even on his own skin, not on the clothing he woke up in. Neither his wife nor his children and it's upsetting on two legs, but on four, it just gives him a sense of urgency.

So if you happen to see a rather large white wolf near the mess or the bar area or one of the crew quarters or just in the hallways, well...

He's as new to this as you are.

Rhea'li shakes his head. Not as far as he knows.

"Should I spot them, I shall inform you."

Oh. But... Rhea'li raises the arm with the network device encircling his wrist.

"Do you have one?" He points at the device.

It's like a more complicated linkpearl as far as he's concerned. But the woman he met on the Observation Deck -- the one he forgot to obtain the name of after he unintentionally incurred her wrath -- did have a point that information flows through the device, so learning how to use the technology would be a boon.

A blatant display of magic, yet somehow not a mage? A very odd man, this one.

He's... definitely not the best person to explain the wonders of unfamiliar technology. But he'll try, in the absence of anyone else more suitable at this present moment.

"I'm much the same," he admits with a wry twist of his mouth. "But this device can be used to communicate with others here. I was taught its basics, if you wish to learn."

A warm smile spreads across Rhea'li's face as he takes Garion's hand and shakes it. "If you've been rude, then so have I. Rhea'li."

His name sounds remarkably similar to 'really'.

Completely unaware of the name confusion, Rhea'li lets go of Garion's hand and unclips his own wristband so he can demonstrate the device's functions on his. Prodding the side of the device, Rhea'li begins, "This will show you the conversations others are having..."

If he isn't stopped, he will launch into a basic rundown of the device's functions, starting with reading/listening/watching content on the network.

Rhea'li's hand goes to his chin. Usually that's the sort of thing that would be the Garlond Ironworks' members' realm of expertise. Or maybe even Stephanivien. Rhea'li? He just uses their products.

"Mayhaps the one who taught me would know." The... android? If he hadn't told Rhea'li he was mechanical, he never would have known. "His name is Nine Ess."

Belatedly, he realises that it would be hard to find someone if Garion doesn't know what he looks like. The least he can do is give some form of description, unlike many of the people who tell him to look for someone.

"His appearance is much like a young Hyur. Or... human, is the name he used." Apparently that's a more common term? "His hair is much like mine, though his face is without my markings."

A pause. Somehow, it never occurred to him to actually contact someone else privately using the device. He's too used to people contacting him "Pray return to the Waking Sands."

A shake of his head. "He is like yourself in that regard."

Rhea'li falls into step beside Garion, tail waving behind him as he walks. It's not like he has much else to do. Holding conversation sounds as good an occupation as any, on board this foreign ship with no where to go and no tasks to be done.

"A Miqo'te." He doesn't mind at all, though he's discovering that many find his appearance unusual. "I suppose our kind aren't present in your world?"

With all the wandering seekers, it would be difficult to imagine anyone on Eorzea having never seen a Miqo'te, even in Ishgard.

Tilting his head, he asks, "Danger from the wildlife?"

So, business as usual, really. There's a reason escorting merchants pays well.

A small smile. "I suppose they throw rocks and eat people, too."

Rhea'li lets out a quiet laugh. That's true. Unless the very big rock didn't kill you. Then that would be terrible.

"You are an adventurer, then? Or merely a traveller?"

A smile stretches across his face.

"Then might you share some stories?" He waves his hands as he speaks, the tips of his ears twitching. "One does not travel and have nary a tale to tell!"
