It is with confidence I report that the native species here are generally of a friendlier nature. Their food is tolerable and they are easily persuaded to provide it to strangers.

They seem armed with rudimentary weapons. Theoretically any one of us could launch a successful attack and come away with minimal casualties.

If the need should arise, of course.

No, I don't think so. And they're clumsy.

You seem happier.

[fireincarnate]

I am. [She is, to say the least, far more relaxed than she was in the caves.] It's peaceful here. For now, anyway.

[keeps_a_cool_head]

I agree; it is extremely peaceful. Does this soothe your mind?

[fireincarnate]

Yes. [She closes her eyes, for a moment, as she leans back against the bark. She doesn't do that in ports, not usually.]

No reason to be violent. No reason to lose control. [No reason to feel helpless or afraid.]

[keeps_a_cool_head]

The tests will come when there is reason. But I believe you deserve this break.

[fireincarnate]

[He's right. She smiles.] Thank you.

How are you liking it?

[keeps_a_cool_head]

I'm out of my element, but I've made it a policy to learn to adapt to unfamiliar surroundings. So perhaps 'like' is a complicated verb.
