Around Hayle OTA

Istredd has not been himself since returning from the pit, much like everyone else who is still adapting to the situation. He's been skittish and hiding in the Horizon or in his room more often than not, only coming out to teach regularly. He is eating a little more than he was from the start, and sleeping slightly better thanks to having someone with him. But he has been withdrawn.

Until he finds out about Hayle and his excitement overtakes his anxieties about going somewhere new and full of people. He prefers to walk around with another Thorne Summoned who he might approach if out and about, but his enthusiasm is higher than usual. He admires the architecture, looking around with open appreciation and might chatter about how it is designed.

Istredd rarely notices shops but this time he does stop to look at the Arcana deck exhibit with genuine interest. When looking at them, you can spot him picking up a journal and making notes within it. He plans on using these designs later for a show. He seems into the magical items and will spend probably more time than he needs to at book shops. He doesn't buy anything while there, having sold all of his own supply, and looking a little longingly about it, but he is saving his money. What for? Well, fashion, for the first time in his entire life. Although he looks a bit perplexed and unsure while on the outside of a fashion boutique, clearly reluctant to go inside and yet hovering.

Istredd immediately goes to the university to take a good look at it. He knows not all of it is on display for newcomers, but that means he is going to soak in everything that he is allowed. He considered going here once upon a time, to learn more about this world, but couldn't accept the disconnect from the others. He can be seen cheerfully talking to any scholars he can find and seeming very at home in their libraries. He probably would stay there the entire time if he wasn't encouraged to look around the rest of the city.
