Divintra sat with his back to a stone wall. He had choosen a spot in the Bazaar where he had a fairly good view of the enterance to Tier Breche. Sitting atop a empty barrel with a chunk of hard bread, his mind wandered once again to the goings on within the halls before him. While Divintra had no intereset in Arach Tinilith, he knew without a doubt he'd be dead if he ever set foot in there, he did wonder about Melee Magethere and the Tower Sorcere. So many drow aspired to enter those places. It made Divintra wonder what sort of aspiration he should have himself. Leaving Menzoberazzan...that certainly seemed like a good idea, though he did not know where he would go. He had a fairly safe place here after all. Plus folks in the Braeryn had started to take note of him...and he wondered if maybe that was a good thing. he wasn't bothered by the usual bullies anymore...and he was even getting a bit more in the way of payment for his services. It was just some of the other services that folk were asking about that worried him.
Divintra reached into his pocket and withdrew his black glass ball. Turning it over in his palm, he watched the way the glass reflected a pretty purple hue. He needed to use it better. He felt like he was wasteing himself when he wasn't practicing calling up his visions. He rather wished there was someone he could ask questions about this...but he doubted it would be very safe. As far as he knew all Seer's were female and tucked nice and safe in Lloth's temples....Divintra feared what might befall him if any of them heard of his particular questions...

A pair of amber eyes glanced around the street. Which city was he in again. The slight glow from the tall clock-like structure reminded Naddaer that he was in the city of Menzoberranzan, a city he hadn't been in before. He had heard much of this city, especially of the schools here. Perhaps this could be the city he would make a home in and study. The Tower of Socrere did hold some allure to it, to study there would be great. Though he'd have the trouble of getting a house to pick him up and see him worthy to study.
His feet eventually took him to the bazaar, a place he liked to frequent in all cities. Here is where he would make his business, both of them. Right now, he'd try his more professional way of acquiring more funds. Finding an empty place on the street, he reached into his robes and pulled out four crystal balls. He started to juggle them in the air, one hand, two hand, alternating. Nimbly, he switched to contact juggling them, spinning them around his hands, making them appear to be doing some things that should use magic.

It was a flash of color that caught Divintra's eyes. That wasn't too unusual really. Some of the more flamboyant drow would wear cloth colored brightly to attract attention. Sometimes Divintra merely enjoyed sitting and watching the passers in the street. It was a interesting display of beauty and grace when you watched a procession of noble drow sweep through the area. Mind you, things like that were best viewed from a distance.
This viewing seemed to coax though. Divintra slipped his ball back into his pocket and wiggled himself off the barrel he'd been seated upon. Slipping through the crowd, he watched that flashing balls in the air. it was quite a interesting display. he did not think he had ever seen anything quite like this before. Daggers maybe, but simple balls? It was the unusual choice of objects that made the feat so interesting.

Naddaer smiled and bowed slightly to the drow that passed by, especially to those who tossed him coin. So far this city seemed to enjoy the simple show he put on, also his main way to earn money. If this did not work, normally he would have to resort to another way that involved liberating other drow of coin in a less scene fashion. He had merely started out with juggling the few crystals in the air, more or less a warm up.
Grinning, two of the crystals seemed to disappear, though really he had slipped them into a pocket of his robes. The other two started to glad around his hands, never leaving contact with his skin. From his palms, over his finger tips and down the backside of his arms. The crystals would also alternate hands during this motion.

Divintra watched as passing drow dropped a few coins now and then at the juggling drows feet. he wondered if being an entertainer of this sort earned the other drow more coin then all of Divintra's laboring did? It certainly seemed like a easier and more enjoyable job. Just getting paid to play? It was a job he felt he could be envious of. Had he been a less moral drow he certainly would have tried snatching up a coin or two in a small dash. But there were too many eyes, and hands, present to catch him at such a brazen and bold theft. Divintra was not at all comfortable with such actions.
He watched, and looked for where the other two balls could have gone. They certainly seemed like they had vanished! though the next trick...now if he could learn that! imagin how interesting it would be to do with his own ball. Divintra cast his eyes down at his own fingers. Turning them over, he flexed and stretched the long white fingers. Of course, they were calloused and stiff from the jobs he did do. The nails were a bit dirty. Damn white skin that he had, it showed off grime so easily.... Divintra glanced back up and continued to watch the drow in his continued fascination. he was fortunate that he had no where else to go, as most other drow seemed to.
