"You can practice your magic just outside the city if you want to. Or over the water."

"Sounds good to me."

"How about you?" he asks Korva.

"I'm not trying to be difficult or anything, just - I had stuff that I did and I can't do it anymore and I don't know what I'd do instead. Especially for a month."

"Some temples take in orphans and might take workers short-term? You'd - have to not teach them about Asmodeus, though."

"I don't speak the right language anyway."

"Well, little babies don't know what you're saying."

Permalink

"I guess that's true."

Permalink

"You don't have to work. Just, if you wanted to."

"I could - try it and see if it was better than doing nothing."

"Cool. We will have to think of something to tell the people at the temple but I bet we can come up with something they'll go along with."

"Like what?"

"Good question. You're a cousin, or half-sister, or whatever - immigrated from, say, Galt, we're trying to find work for you."

Permalink

"I guess that works."

Permalink

"Got a preference of temple?"

Permalink

"Uh. I dunno, what temples take in orphans - "

Permalink

"Abadar. Sarenrae. Erastil."

Permalink

"Erastil's okay."

Permalink

"He is! Okay, we'll find a temple and I'll join it and make up some backstory that explains you."

Permalink

"All right."

So he goes looking for a temple of Erastil. Pays to join. Claims she's his sister-in-law, he wants something that'll earn her a bit of money and keep her out of trouble in the day while they try to make longer-term arrangements, can she watch the babies?

 

They won't pay her much of anything but they are open to this.

Well, she's used to not being paid much of anything, although not much of anything in Cheliax might be slightly more than not much of anything in Osirion.

She can show up to work without any really obviously Chelish clothes and see how it is.

There are babies. About half orphaned, half abandoned. They need changing and feeding and snuggling and singing to. One of her coworkers has a smidge of Taldan and can give instructions, though not with very much detail. Everyone seems friendly enough.
