The Emerald Spire- Fort Inevitable: The Beginning.
Verdra entered Fort Inevitable from the northern gate, moving with the focused determination of a woman on a mission. She was a tall woman with a statuesque look, and black hair so long that, even collected in a ponytail as they were, they nevertheless still reached down to her shoulders. Combined with the black tribal tattoos that covered her bare arms and most of her face, she wasn't somebody who would go unnoticed, yet she ignored any comments or calls directed her way, her steps confident and secure as she headed straight to the Juliver Arms' Inn like she was following a set of instructions on how to reach it she had memorized perfectly - which she was.
She didn't slow down or interrupt her determined march once she entered the inn either, merely letting her golden gaze move across the patrons until she identified McDougal and corrected her course to head straight for him, sitting herself down to his table without hesitation, barely slowing the time necessary to adjust the sword at her side and the bow on her back so that they didn't catch on the chair. Then she said, her attention entirely on him:
"Greetings, Corwin McDougal. As we discussed, I intend to participate in your investigative expedition. I acquired Chieftain Darioth's permission to do so, as you recommended. My interest in the possibility to collect the information you hypothesized about remains undiminished."
Only after having said that did she turn her attention towards Nethi, her gold-colored eyes taking in the woman in a scrutinizing manner that seemed to held no judgment - in fact, it seemed to held no emotion at all, being merely an evaluating one. Then she told her, in the same dispassionate tone she'd spoken to Corwin with:
"Greetings, stranger. I am called Verdra. I hypothesize you are to also participate in the research expedition. Are you allowed to identify yourself?"
