He clasped his hands as he waited, each little fidget sending a gentle stab of pain through a finger. He'd have to get more of this one's measure before he made a decision.
Well. He supposed he should sit down. "This is the realm of the Erdtree. Seat of the God-Queen Marika, chief servant of the Greater Will, and her chosen Elden Lord. Or was, long ago." He lowers himself to the ground, with what poise one can muster while kneeling in the dirt.

"And that is why you are here. Once banished, the Tarnished have been called to return. For the Greater Will desires now for a new Lord to reforge the Elden Ring."
He tilts his head slightly, studying the Tarnished. "But you seem to be unburdened with such purpose. Does it appeal to you all the same?"
