She looked at the map. "Pretty good map," she said. "If you're looking for good sights, you'll head by boat this way, off the east edge of the map." She pointed to the edge, then moved her finger to the east until she ran off the edge. "You'll be over here at the west edge." She pointed. "Then, you can dock in Guasto," she pointed, "and head east again to Ketulunanox."
She smiled. "But... I'd suggest getting out of these caverns, first."

She laughed and put the map away.
"Probably a good idea. So where are you going later? After you're done showing lost tourists around, I mean?

"Probably back home," she said. "I only came out here to explore the caverns... and to hunt," she admitted sheepishly.

"Hunt? Hunt what? I haven't seen any animals or anything around..."

SHe looked away, blushing. "The animals in Nerezza are really hard to see, since they usually hide in darkness. We've got lots of bats and some other, stranger stuff further in, but.. I'm... not really hunting animals..."

Faeylinn shrugged, accepting the answer.
"Okay. so where is 'home' for you? Where do you live?"

"I'll show you! I can't believe you're just gonna let something like that go, though. You really oughtta be less accepting around here - nothing in Nerezza is as it seems," she warned. "Santo-Luce says we're the land of demons, and they're not wrong, although they're not really right, either."

"Alright, then, what were you hunting? And if youare demon and you aren't then what exactly does it make you? Almost nothing is like it seems, then I suppose that goes for you too, but if you don't want to tell me about it then I won't pry."

She smiled. "There we go! That'll make your travels much easier. I'm... well, I'm a vampire. We're not really all that uncommon around here in Nerezza, and the humans and us live side-by-side, because of our Queen who rules over all the Nerezzans. It's been that way since the beginning of time, or so they say."
She tilted her head at Faey. "Are you scared, now?"

She shrugged.
"Should I be? If you were going to hurt me, I'd think you would have by now and you haven't. You been nothing but kind to me, so unless you're some pweirdo sadist, I'm pretty sure you don't have any intention of hurting me."

Her smile grew. "Well said," she replied, and, without another word, continued to lead the way. It was a short time later they emerged under the stars and partially-hidden moon of Nerezza.

"Finally! Fresh air!"
She was jokingly melodramtic as she raised her hands to the sky in 'worship'. Then she turned to Elexa and held out a hand to shake.
"Thanks for showing me out, Elexa. It was nice meeting you!"

She took her hand and shook it. "Hey... I can show some othr places you might be interested in, as well... I'll also show you to the right port, so you can get where you'll want to be going."

She smiled openly.
"Sure, sounds great! Do you happen to know any place nearby that serves good food?"

She laughed. "Hard to get good food in Nerezza, but... sure, I think I can show you to somewhere you can rest for the night and eat your fill. First, though, we have to cross the Macula River."
