[Keith opens his eyes, waking -- though it's strange somehow, not like waking up so much as shifting from one state to another -- with a bleary sort of consuion. Shiro is still close by and that's comfort enough. The commotion outside the door has him frowning. That's not... Oh. This isn't the Temple at all, is it?]
Takashi... [He reaches out to set a hand against Shiro's arm, sure the other man is already waking up after all that noise. It's then that he stills.
Something is different.]
[ 1b. Waking up (OPEN) ]
[Sometime between the first few confused moments of waking and Astoria's message, Keith gets himself out into the inn proper only to bodily flinch and hiss at the sun spilling in through the window. His eyes. What the hell. No, he's not a fan of that at all. He retreats away from the direct sunlight, finding a shadowy spot to perch and look around.
He hasn't gotten a good look at himself yet, hasn't gotten to fully take in his new half-drow nature: the blueish gray skin and pointed ears, the vibrant purple eyes that are currently displeased at all the light. But he knows something is different.
This is...]
What the hell is going on.
[That's what Keith has to say about that.]
[ 2. To the task board! And Beyond! (OPEN) ]
[Keith is looking at the various postings from underneath his hood. He may only be half-drow, but he's all not thrilled about the sunlight. He'll cope. But he is grumpy about it.]
So... guess there's some choices. [And to anyone who happens to be nearby.] I don't suppose you want to buddy up?
[Some of these quests seem better suited to teams, after all. Though he adds,] Maybe not boats though.
[ 3. Swords and well, mostly swords (OPEN) ]
[Keith may be a druid in this place, but that doesn't mean he could pass up looking into the blacksmith and the weapons they make there. The chance to try out a fancy sword and get some practice in, well he can't pass that up.
And before the contest starts, well,]
Hey. Don't suppose you feel up for sparring? I don't want to go into the tournament cold.
[ 4. Hungry like the wolf (OPEN) ]
[Keith has discovered how wild shape works. So that explains the wolf who is trotting around the outskirts of town looking for all the world like he's having the time of his life. It doesn't explain the very unnatural looking, larger, vaguely glowing wolf with him. But in fairness, the cosmic wolf is confused that the human he usually follows around has gone and turned himself into a wolf too. The space wolf is confused. But he's going along with it.
And Keith, Keith is making the most of the whole being-a-wolf thing. This is great. He'll just... be a wolf for a while.
Sorry if he happens to jump out of the brush in front of you and startle the hell out of you. The cosmic wolf is right behind him.
Please don't attack either of them.]
