He woke soonafter he dozed off not finding anything peculiar to do, he ended up here. Certainly Ziven's house was more restricted with its guests, frankly he had his times alone, meditating in the future.
"I cant always win. Life plays some stranges cards sometimes. Maybe this is not my time. Maybe she wasnt mine to begin with. Though i will cherish everything happily no use glooming in the past. I sure hope someone would bring me company today... Oh! Silmeria! I sure haven't seen her in a long time nor Feldspar."
Saying with a slight smiles that he still had choices or time, though this time he will do things right.

The wind picked up slightly, and a woman stood beside Seisuke now where there had been no one before. "You called my name?" she asked softly, looking to him with a calm smile, her head tilted slightly towards him.

Aaah! *he didn't expect to be heard in that matter or be known of what he was talking suddenly he reacted forward and flailed as he began to fall toward the cliff empty side and fall abrutly trying to grab anything in well panic and survival.

Arching a brow, she reacted instantly, grabbing his upper arm firmly and pulling him back to his feet, closer to her. She looked to him with an amused smile though not unkind. "Forgive me for startling you, friend. I assure you it was not my intention."

He panted and pouts "Well is ok, I could have been killed." He smiled regaining composure. "Nah! im ok It takes more than this to kill me, heck i think bullets or energy cant kill me either" Blinking he looked at her and bowed politely not realizing he was with someone of higher stature than his "Uhmmm Atra.... esterní" He was off guard of sorts and that made him very nervous. Why he was feeling like this, who knew only her could explain such behaviour at the moment.

"You will not be killed in my presence." she said sounding almost cheerful with this comment. Releasing his arm, she smiled more brightly, bobbing her head with his attempt at their greeting. "Atra .. esterní .. ono .. thelduin, is what you would say, friend." she said cheerfully, speaking slowly, enunciating the words carefully for his education and benefit if he were to try again. "To which I will reply; Mor'ranr .. lífa .. unin .. hjarta .. onr. And finally, if you wish, you may reply again in saying Un .. du .. evarínya .. ono .. varda." she said softly, smiling at him with confidence. "Do you know what these words mean in your tongue?"

*he nodded and spoke more normally now. For her this was more than surprise ttoo both* I do what they mean, Sverdavarden I was merely a bit nervous since you caught me way off guard. In fact i should thank ziven she made me study the language for our trip to your realm. They are a set phrase for greeting meaning in short good things to you. In japan have something of the sort. But im sure you wouldnt be interested in humans way of greeting* He said with nonchalant smile, she was the second female he has seen in ages apart from ziven and feld. Which since he was in love with ziven have been ignoring but he wants to build more friends maybe a more closer friendship, but twas too early for clebrations or settlement to both beings, he sneezed a bit moving his head away for a second or two before returning back. He was acting more relaxed and less stiff.* I mean I mean no offense though if you wish i could teach you.

Very well *ahem* in japanese is very much the same but with slight differences. You greeting is very formal all the time. In japanese there's many different greetings depending of the level of personal relation and/or formalism if you might think. For example Ziven says Seisuke-ona the equivalent to that would be Seisuke-sama.
Only adressing by the name would be to the upmost peronal level and only friends or people that have intimate relationship would adress people without any honorifics. Failure to do so means, disrespect and in Japan is treated in a very harsh way.
Now to the greeting "Hajime... Mashite... Watashi ...no...namae...wa...Silmeria...douzo...youroshiku....onegai....shimasu..." Ok Now this translates. Greetings my name is silmeria please treat me fairly. Noting this is for your first meeting.
I should respond "Hai! youroshiku onegai shimasu" Which means, Yes a pleasure to have meet you... I hope i didnt tell something very complicated*

She nodded as he spoke, showing she understood and appreciated everything he said. "Lovely, thank you. I am quite satisfied with everything you have said. If I may try .." she said with a soft sound of clearing her throat before trying both phrases, pausing slightly in between.
"Hajime mashite watashi no namae wa Silmeria, douzo youroshiku onegai shimasu.
Hai, youroshiku onegai shimasu, Seisuke-sama."

He almost refrained the giggle before clapping on her first try* Marvelous first try, though your accent looks more Kyoto-ish. Apart from one single mistake i would say you learned in much less than i. Very well done

"Languages are my specialty. Unfortunately I carry an accent in all that I speak, though I already know a dozen languages fluently, several more nearly fluently and enough to get by with of several more. Of the latter mentioned, I know either the written or the verbal form more than I know both. Though please do not misunderstand, it is my wish to inform you, not to brag. I thank you very much for your compliment." she replied in a lyrical tone, bowing her head respectfully with her near apology. "If you would please be so kind as to answer one question for me .. that would be; where are we? I have never been to this spot before. Are we still in the Syndicate?"

Whoa! *he blushed when he heard that. She was very intriguing and had knowledge. Coughing a couple of times before talking again* We are in the cliff. Yes this a part of syndicate, here i as well as many other found the most pleasant or most horrified answers in this same spot. Memories serves right, this cliff wasnt natural design more that certain event made it what it is right now. To your left there is a shack where Zero and Angel concived one of their many children. Though now that i answer your question, you will answer mine. Fair enough? tell me more about yourself.

"Certainly. Not too long after my birth, there was a battle in which both my parents perished. I was essentially adopted by the sword smith of our city. Both assisting him in his duties as the sword smith and as his student, he taught me all that he knew. Together we read every book in the library in my years growing up. Though there were a number of others in town that would serve as tutors, he was insistent upon teaching me himself. In my opinion, he has done an exceptional job of teaching me in the ways I needed to learn. The teaching that I gained from others mainly centered on combat.
It likely will be obvious to you now why I am the sword smith for our village. When he retired, I inherited his business and have been doing the best I can to uphold his namesake. I have traveled to the lands of the dwarves, orcs, men and a few other species which I will not name for the time being out of respect for requests made by these particular species. From them I learned their languages, both written and spoken, despite they all too speaking either the language of men or of elves.
It had been many years since I have traveled to other lands, which is why I requested to join Argetlam in returning Ziven to this place." she said in a cool, clear tone, inclining her head from time to time, her expression and body were relaxed yet shown her kind nature when she spoke. "If there is more detail you wish to know, please ask. I assumed you desired an overview of my life."

He looked at her very curious and nodded to her reply but that was it. Trying to hold himself from such he looked at her and said "Incredible. So youre like an unique female of sorts. You seem deiffrent from everyone as well"
