"Oh, collecting food ingredients for the cook, making sure the woodpile is always stocked, helping with the Ningos that are due to be useful on the dinner table," I respond easily as he asks after what errands the landlord has me doing. It was mostly busywork, giving me something to do so that I could continue to stay with the landlord, who seemed to like me well enough - he hadn't given me an end date to my stay, at least. "On my previous home I was raised on a farm, and also studied to become a doctor for animals - a veterinarian, they called it - so I have joined Loren's healer's college, to hopefully put what skills I have to use, and to learn and adapt to what this world has to offer the art of healing."
I offer a surprised smile as Neron reveals he is the Warden of the Citadel, unable to stop my mind from jumping to thoughts of Ned Stark being Warden of the North. But I don't mention the old stories from home, not now, anyway, keeping the thought to myself as I follow him through the door of the Kraai, taking in a deep breath of the fireplace-warmed air.
"I could only imagine running an entire citadel would prove quite a challenge," I agree easily, the mere thought of being that involved in a government a bit daunting to me. "Do you enjoy it though?" I ask, genuinely interested as I make my way to the bar, placing an order for a cider drink with the barkeep, as I await his reply.
