[QUOTE="Pinotage, post: 2882354, member: 15194"] It wasn't like he wasn't used to the heat. Even little Charizane could have ran miles in heat like this - her indomitable spirit was a tribute to the Planak halflings of the plains and steps. He'd spent much time in heat like this. It was the sand that grated his nerves - it got everywhere, particularly in his beard and given his penchant for skipping to occasional bath or forty, it was going to annoy him more. He sighed to himself as he arrived on the outskirts, and scratched some loose sand out of his beard. "It is to be a long day and a long journey," he said to himself in a strong voice. Shifting his overlarge overtunic into place, the dwarf Aethor stalked into the small place that was known as Prophet's Leap. He walked with purpose, only shielding his face from the sun and sand. Tied around his head was makeshift protection from the sun - a spare outfit of clothing used for an altogether unfit purpose. Nevertheless, he gave a spirited entry into the small hamlet, smiling at those he passed, occasionally muttering a 'I hope you be well'. He stopped for a moment outside what appeared to be a poor merchant's tent, glancing only once at the imposing sunburnt figure standing near the stone in the center. "Now there be trouble if I ever be seeing it." He shrugged to himself as his curious nature drew him closer to the store. "I don't be supposing you be having something to be keeping the sand off me," he started with a grin. "Magic will do, as I can't think anything else be more suited to the task." His eyes idly drifted over the wares but he didn't touch anything. Turning his attention again to the man, creature, standing near the stone, he stared for a while. Beneath his tunic the tips of two blades could be seen, but otherwise he travelled only with a rugged looking pack to his back. That is to say, that was all that could be seen beneath the light, brown, traveller's clothing he wore. The overlarge overtunic covered most of his body almost like a dress would. "It is to be good that I am here. I am sure the prophet can tell me more about a curiosity I have." Turning back to the merchant, he said, "What you be saying? You be having something for me?"
