"Well, well, well...what manner of creature is this?" You hear a soft, effeminate voice behind you. You nearly jump and quickly turn around. The warmth of the shop as dulled your senses enough that you didn't hear anyone approach you. A tall slender man with sharp features stands before you. His eyes are sharp and his hair cut short with long bangs. You'd confuse him for an elf if his ears weren't rounded. A large sash goes over his shoulder, riddled with needles and pins. In one of the pockets of his silk pants is what looks to be a measuring tape. With a few steps, he's right in front of you and he grabs you by the chin lifting your face to meet his eyes. His long slender fingers are much stronger than you expected. "Wonderful eyes." He mutters in awe. "Beautiful fiery hair. Oh, if only you hadn't butchered it so with that cut." The man steps back and sizes you up. His face contorts into one of disgust and for a moment you fear he'd be sick to his stomach. "And a serious lack of care for your appearance. Tell me creature. What do you call yourself?"
"I-" You begin, half gasping and half whispering as your body is fighting off the cold. You clear your throat but the man shakes his head.
"No no. This simply will not do. I shan't have you dying in my shop because of this cold and I simply cannot let you die in those rags. No, no. Wait one moment, and try not die while I'm gone." The man says with a tone of dramatic exasperation. He quickly, and with surprising elegance, walks into the back of the shop. Moments later he returns with a tray containing a large kettle and a single cup. He delicately pours a hot tea into the cup slowly filling the room with a scent that you could only describe as...tea like. He quickly hands you the cup by it's saucer. "Now...we shall try again from the beginning, shall we? To put it rather indelicately, who are you?" He asks slowly.
>Do you drink the man's tea?
>Yes
>No
>How do you introduce yourself?
>Introduce yourself as The Traveler. It would be fun to keep the mysterious bit going.
>Give the man your name. Regal. Perhaps it will make him think you're some kind of noble.
>Ask the man his his name instead. He did surprise you. The least he could do is introduce himself.
>Ask about his shop. There doesn't seem to be much clothing here.
>Write in.
