Fox spends a lot of his time bothering Karsa, trying to learn as much as he can from her despite her tightened guard. The magic here is different, and it's taking a frustratingly long time to parse it, but he's starting to at least be able to grasp the edges of it. She shows him what runes to use for the spell he offered, and that tiny clue is what he clutches as he works into the night.

He has a bad habit of not watching where he's walking, lost in thought as he scribbles in a little notebook that he bought before they left Sa-Hareth. It isn't ideal. It's too small, his thoughts too big - the almost seem to tumble off the pages as he hastily scribbles. But then he also nearly walks off the edge of the narrow stairs... Hopefully someone is around to catch him.

He's more subdued than he was, before the siege, though when he realizes he's being watched he does his best to keep up his usual cheerful demeanor. This had all felt a little like a game, at first. A dangerous game, but still a game. A puzzle for him to figure out how to solve, one in a long line of many. Now, he's not so sure.

Now, he's worried that neither this world or himself will come out the same now that he's in it.

Hendrik was doing his rounds. No one asked him to but he wanted to keep the people safe. He figured it might be a throwback to going around and collecting survivors after the fall of Yggdrasil but didn't give it much more thought beyond that.

The tall knight thought about the words of the Luminary, something about getting tattoos but he hadn't gotten around to finding the one he'd called 'Fox'. But he recalled the physical description and found himself walking the stairs for exercise. And that's when he found the man scribbling notes, walking near the edge.

Blue eyes looked up a few steps ahead of him and spotted Fox, but his eyes narrowed in concern. "Be careful or you will fall."
