Extraordinarily so.

I did not... imagine it was possible, for the people we love to join us here. Being proven wrong is a gift I will not soon forget.

But he is definitely grateful.

Also, "sharp ear" makes him smile. ]

...I am indeed elven. Sharp ears and all.

Is "Jinba" the name of your people?

[[ ooc: this is also hilarious timing because immediately after this conversation his wife arrives in Lunatia :') ]]

[lumberlady]

if is having love... i am hoping for you to reunion with them, in LUNATIA or most hope in you ‘s world.

[does this mean she jinxed him?? a good jinx!! plz introduce she has so few married friends what’s up with all these single people in Lunatia (besides the obvious)!]

i feel relief to be correct! is many thing i still do not know...

yes. people is called jinba, two type, in mountain and field blood. i ‘s name is KONOHA. mountain jinba.

[greenbriar]

[ an excellent jinx, and he will absolutely consider himself in her debt for it :D ]

I am Cardan. It is a pleasure.

How do a mountain jinba and a field jinba differ?

[ ...it's possible that he's trying to figure out whether she's... human... or something else entirely. ]

[lumberlady]

[greatmoon groves non-human double date???]

is honor for meeting, even if is not seeing.

mountain jinba is more strong than field jinba, field jinba is more fast... is most easy way to say. also coat is more thick than field, and legs is thicker. more stamina, but body is not as graceful?

like this.

[greenbriar]

[ absolutely ]

Ah. You are also not human, then?

[lumberlady]

no, is jinba. is i 's writing ability problem?

or

you no know what is jinba is problem?

[greenbriar]

[ He will frown at the message for a minute, feeling weirdly defensive about not knowing the thing he doesn't have any reason to know. ]

The latter.

[ ...and then he immediately regrets being curt. ]

I do not know what jinba is, I mean.

[lumberlady]

i see.

you need PHOTOGRAPH?

or possible you know CENTAUR? many people in LUNATIA see i and call i CENTAUR so must look same.

[greenbriar]

I am familiar with centaurs.

[ ...though there do not seem to be that many in Lunatia. Hm... ]

Are you, by chance, in the business of farming?

[lumberlady]

then maybe is fine to think of i as CENTAUR.

yes! you hear of farm? or maybe see at market?

[greenbriar]

At market, yes. The one with the screaming produce. I talked to a woman, but only briefly; I imagine that may have been you?

[ The centaurs he knows are... also fey. He remembers being surprised by her rounded ears, that day at market, but now it makes a little more sense. ]

[lumberlady]

surprise! yes, only mare jinba in LUNATIA is i, so must be i!

thank you for patronage!

and to speak again!

[greenbriar]

I am pleased to have had the chance.

[lumberlady]

next time to speak i be more bright.

is promise.
