Figure it's normal that someone would come here and see people the likes of which they've never seen before. Makes sense, that. New place, new people.
Thing that's confusing me is, more folk here look like me than ever did back home. All skin, ears the shape of seashells, two eyes, somewhere on the short side of of the mean. We call people like me hume, back home. Or hyur? I think it was hyur. Something like that. We cluster together sometimes, big families and all. But most cities, you'd see all kinds of folk. And they'd be built to be used by all kinds of folk, too. Everything made for people of all sorts of sizes.
Here it feels like every other person is my size. And I don't know I've seen more than a couple doors that a zun could get through comfortably.
That's not normal, is it? For there to be so many hume and so few of everyone else?

[ He immediately wants to punch something just having to type that name out. ]
Sorry for the delay!
[ If it weren't for the name, he'd just say 'yes'. ]
You understand why, assuming that name is no coincidence.
no worries!
You recognise my title. Who are you exactly?

Important thing to know is that I'm not here to settle any scores, I'm just worrying about whether a galdjent's arse would fit any of the chairs around here.

I saw Elidibus' attempt to drown the First in Light again so you needn't trouble yourself explaining. You must be the Warrior of Light whose identity he assumed.
[ A pause. ]
Also yes, the population of this world appears to favour hyurs. Or humes, as you call them.
