"I was a bit of a traveler in where I'm from. The last place I called home was a place that I escaped from, so I'm okay with being here. It's a new experience and I'm still learning. Not as bad as living among drow but definitely pretty intense," he admits. "You've been here a while?"

"For a while is a good way to phrase it. A while long enough to be detached from therebefore." She nodded. "Traveller means Planewalker?"

"No, not really. I traveled on my world. Until I visited the demiplane of time. After that my memory was wiped and I woke back up on my world. Then I cane here," he explains.

"I mean, it's more complex than just that, but that's the outline. Have you traveled the planes much?"

"Quite likely. I have the knowledge of the Planes but few recollections about my experiences from the period before settling in Sigil."

"So you're short a few memories as well then?" he asks.

She confirmed with a nod. "Though the circumstances of that were likely very different from yours. However, memories are in retrievable in principle."

"Yeah. I'm working on that," he says. He looks back to Grint. "So, this is your job? Taking care of the dead? How's that pay?" He asks, curious. Almost like he doesn't have a regular job and he's on the lookout.

"It's less of a job and more of a calling. I'm not in it for the pay. But yes, I take care of the dead." She probably got that almost. "It's not a great opportunity for gainful employment if this is what you're asking. And it comes with a philosophy that requires a certain mindset which mostly de-emphasises material possessions. I may introduce you to it if you have time, but if you're just looking for something to do, I may actually have a task for you."

"I can always use a bit of work," he says with a nod. "As for the material wealth, I donate the bulk of my money to the Church of Eilistraee. I need to earn a few coins to keep me in my place in the Guildhall Ward, because the baths at the gymnasium are nice, but I like earning something for the church. So I'll take what you've got since this seems like an honest way to do my part for the city, my people, myself and someone that's taking care of my friend."

She removed something from her sleeve that then floated in the air, some semi-solid ribbon-like chain of inscrutable glyphs.

"This is a thought strand. It contains some of the last thoughts of late Rhaunades, the scholar who fell victim to the gruesome murder last night. You must have heard about it. I conducted a post mortem examination and managed to extract those thoughts. I'd like this to be delivered to those in charge of the investigation, probably Harmonium, along -these- autopsy notes. Maybe this will help them find the killer and give Rhaunades some peace." She produced them. "Do you feel up for the task? Thought strands are rather brittle and need to be passed and decoded quickly before they dissipate."
