Re: CJ 03: Christopher Chosen
A thought quickly crosses my mind: "If they are wary, especially when their cover is blown, openness may be the best move."
I try and speak in a calming voice. "I am called Christopher. You have no need to be concerned about me, for I want nothing more than to speak with you as a potential friend. I am what might be called a 'student of culture' from a far away land, and interaction with others is beloved by me. As a sign of good faith, I will tell you how I am able to see you. Korax, come forth. I send a telepathic command, just in case he can't hear my voice.
When Korax is visible, I hold out my hand to receive him. After he lands, I speak. "This is my faithful friend and companion." I say while petting him. "His eyes are far sharper than mine, and it is with his help that I was able to 'see' you." I pet him a little bit more.
"What say you, good fae? Would you be willing to at least speak with me for bit? There is no need to unveil yourself, if it makes you uncomfortable."
