Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I'm Zuberi," he stated and then nodded towards an Oban tavern down the road. It was one he went to often. The food was good and it was frequent mostly by Oban soldiers so he didn't have to worry about nobles trying to disturb his meal by interacting with him when he rather be left alone instead.

Well not alone this time. A hint of curiosity went through him as they walked. "You said you stuck to the shadows. Back during the slave times what happened to people of mixed blood? Were you also slaves or free?"

Zuberi listened intently, his brow furrowing as she explained the situation. So it mostly mattered what they looked like, instead of what the blod was in their veins. It was strange. He had never thought about it before. It was just a non-issue for him so why should he think about it, but...

Somehow he was bothered, though he wasn't sure why. "Did your father leave your mother after the Matori were set free?"

As he spoke they reached the tavern. He reached over Elaine and pushed open the door, holding it open for her.
