These people were strange, Taijun thought, everyone seemed to move at a dizzying pace. Even their conversations jumped around and no one really listened to each other. Taijun brought another spoonful of broth to his lips. At the monastery everything was methodical, paced, and purposeful but here in Torch there seemed to be a fire in its very citizens. Like a fire they move, consumed by their own lives, he pondered, and now the fire is out.
Perhaps it was one of the locals sitting next to a lithe half-elf talking of fire that conjured these thought in Taijun, the man seemed very consumed by the town's dilemma. He took a another sip of his soup and realized it was near the bottom of his bowl. Just as the people of this town do not sit idly about, Taijun came to the realization that the time for waiting and watching was over. Now was the time for action.
Gathering up his pack and stick Taijun approached the two that had caught his attention. "Greetings, I am Taijun." He said with a slight bow to the two. "Pardons if I am intruding. I could not help but overhear your conversation. I too have concerns over these recent events. May I join you both?"
