Citali returned to the ship, a small dear resting on his shoulder, stopping in his tracks when he saw the two newcomers on board. During his travels, he had crossed paths with various religious bodies, so he recognised that the woman was a priestess. No one else would wear white robes on board a ship, unless they were completely out of their minds. The whole crew were gathered around this woman and her darkly clothed companion.
Citali took his place in the circle around the priestess, waiting patiently for her to begin her tale. He gave a small smile when Kieran's temper disappeared at the mention of the reward. Such a high reward was tempting, even Jenna seemed to be mildly interested at the mention of the substantial reward, the slight raise of her eyebrow the only giveaway of her thoughts. Otherwise, her gaze remained fixed on the priestess, waiting for her to spin her tale, as they all were.
