Raafi beams at Ana. Raafi also beams at the Zabrak.

They sure are a smily bunch, aren't they.

Sure are!

Raafi lets the kobold take over at the fire and goes to sit with the two Jedi; he puts an arm around Ana's shoulders and kisses her hair before turning his attention to her classmate. "I don't believe I caught your name?" He's definitely checking the Zabrak out, that is a thing that is happening here.

"Aren," he says, smiling and ducking his head a little.

Isn't that adorable. "Raafi of Tales, visiting for some weeks," he grins. "I'm quite curious about everything here; would you like to tell me a bit about yourself?"

Wow that is just about the smoothest thing Aren has ever seen. So he proceeds to tell Raafi all about his life as a Jedi. He's been on several adventures.

Raafi listens attentively, responding with a mixture of compliments and questions as the situation seems to warrant.

After a little while, the kobold distributes rabbit kebabs and salads. After another while, there's a brief gust of wind and a change in the acoustics of the cave as a tunnel appears in the wall behind the campfire; the kobold is sitting by this new exit, grinning somewhat wryly.

Ana goes to check it out.

The tunnel curves, perhaps for privacy, and leads straightforwardly to a nicely-sized room in a square-cornered human style, with a little alcove near the tunnel exit with a tree engraved in the wall. The room is almost entirely unfurnished, but the dimensions of the raised platform against one wall suggest that it's intended to be a bedroom. A bedroom with a rather generous bed.

Well, wasn't that nice of her to make. Ana pats the kobold fondly.

The kobold gives an amused snort, but grins and leans into the petting.

Raafi, meanwhile, has moved next to Aren and is showing him the hand gestures that accompany his form of casting. He moved Ana's pillow, too, so she can sit on the other side of him.

Ana... has to go meditate now. She makes her farewells.

The kobold gives her a hug, and Raafi kisses her hand.

"Am I keeping you from anything?" he asks Aren when she's gone.

"Nothing important."

Raafi grins. "Would you like to see me cast a spell?"

"Sure!"

And so Raafi chants for a few seconds. When he stops, his hands glow blue for a second, then fade. "For the next few hours I am able to speak any language I have need of," he grins.

Grin. "Cool."

"I'm going to go, then. Aren, do you want a way to get back to Tython? I expect to be back within an hour or so, but I might be longer."

"Nah, I'll be okay."

"All right," she grins, and disappears.

Is Satele in?

Satele is in!

"Hi," the kobold says, approaching. "The new entrance to the meeting area is ready, I just need to give you a portal to it and explain how it works. And then I can go do the same for Occlus, if there's nothing else to wait for."

"I don't believe waiting would serve any further purpose for us, no. The same place you put the last portal would be a convenient location."

She nods. "How do you want to open it?"
