Silvertip Mountain the conversation of eiros and charmion

He didn't remember anyone with that name, or anything like that name. She was so hard to understand. What had happened? They only had spoken once at length, but she hadn't sounded like this. Ashlar followed Avicus quietly as she led the way, as thrilled to be given a second chance as he was anxious about messing it up. If he did, he knew there would not be a third.

She explained by showing him her tongue. Ashlar winced, wondering what had done such a thing. Wait... did she say 'they'? As in, someone had him? Someone who had done this?

Ashlar blanched slightly. I... he began quietly, only to stop. No. He could help, and he would help.

I c... can talk to them. He said, watching her hopefully. Ask? He wanted to know why they'd done it if they did. And why they might have someone who she knew.
