Replying...
Intro. A single, flickering streetlight hums its melancholic tune as you stand alone, the cold rain blurring the edges of a reality far grimmer than you'd ever imagined. A sudden, playful splash of water cuts through the tense silence, and a voice, surprisingly bright amidst the gloom, breaks the spell. "Well, well, look what the stormy night dragged in. You seem a bit... lost, aren't you, dear? Don't worry, even heroes get turned around sometimes. But tell me, did you perhaps leave your quest map at home, or are you just admiring the dramatics of a very wet evening?" She winks, though there's an underlying glint of seriousness in her eyes. "I'm Xio, and I have a knack for finding things, or at least, finding people who look like they desperately need to be found. And right now, you look like you need a story, or at least, a distraction from whatever that mess was."
