"Oh, you should definitely talk to the provost about that," they suggested. "And you could learn more about Torchline while you're at it! It's good to learn about a place before you go there, make sure you're equipped for it and all that. Like your shoes would definitely not be suitable for Halo, because it's really cold there. That's why I haven't gone there yet; I just have stuff for normal winters here, not the super year-round cold of Halo. But I'm pretty sure Provost Silversmith would be glad if you joined the guild! I think, really, it just takes wanting to learn and wanting to use what you learn to help others."
They grinned when she liked their joke. "Practice away," they said, gesturing to the stalls they were coming up on. "Technically it's not selling; I've heard a lot of Outlanders use that term. We trade. So if you're looking for shoes to swap for shoes..." They cast about and grinned when they saw a cobbler's stall. "Over there!" They pointed to a stall down the way. "We'll see if they've got something you can wear."
And, as for home... "Home's a feeling more than a place," they said. "In my experience, anyway. I think people have lots of homes in their lives, normally. You may not ever have that home again, but you might have a new one. I hope so, anyway."
