[ He's much stronger than Elidibus, who has probably finished about the same amount by now, or even a little less, and is already beginning to look at this sad little Sundered Miqo'te as entirely more interesting than he originally thought.
A mature man, aged finely and with so much experience in life.... Elidibus' favorite type. Oh no. ]
Oh... yes. It was a risk to take indeed. But my work is even far more interesting to me than adventuring itself.
[ He shakes his head, as if to clear some thought. ]
Current pupil? A teacher, then.... Is that what you were doing?
[It'd be unfair to call drinking a hobby, there was a less charitable word for that, but the mage certainly had a lot of experience when it came to drinking, that much was true enough.
Loosened up and easy now as he was, he'd focus entirely now upon the other man, taking a good, long moment to fully take him in. Not so dreadfully young, no, perhaps indeed about as old as the Warrior was, were he to hazard a guess. His curiosity was burning brightly, the desire to learn more about his current company wasn't about to go away any time soon.
Especially not with a response like that.]
Your work? Then adventuring 'tis but a hobby, of sorts? Or does it come part in parcel with your work?
It was indeed, as surprising as it was for me. Being a teacher was not something I had originally strove for, rather it seemed to fall into my lap. I couldn't turn away those who asked to learn, however. Unexpected as it was, I couldn't ever claim to call it unwanted.
[ It would not surprise Elidibus at this point if the miqo'te could hold his liquor better. He is quickly learning himself doomed when faced with mortal alcohol in a mortal body. He hates it... but is clearly not stopping himself entirely. ]
Adventuring... is something of a hobby, yes. I am more a diplomat than anything.
[ He's had his hand in creating heroes, and being a hero, and destroying heroes of great renown of course. But First and Foremost he will always be the Emissary. Small details he leaves out for X'ruhn of course, but their attention goes to the matter of teaching which is a fine enough distraction.
And if Elidibus happens to be admiring his teacher's form from a physical perspective as well now, don't worry about it. ]
A natural instructor, then. It's a fine quality to have. Your student... has not come to this place with you? Perhaps you can teach others in the meantime.
