Just a Relaxing Cruise! (Rhona)

[Rhona Hall]

"At least spirits are kind... I think my Gods are laughing at me." She would stand up slowly not much but water in her system and she didn't want to try and overdo it after that ordeal. Headaches and stranded about some unknown island.

"Where am I?" she would ask

[Sir Galahad]

"Ostrovot."

He would say.

"The home of my tribe for many generations!"

He would say proudly.

[Rhona Hall]

She would approach him.

"Hm..." she had never heard of the place. Regardless she would outstretch her hand for a welcome. "I am Rhona, Rhona Hall... Who might you be?"

[Sir Galahad]

"Jovan Prolet."

He would say as he bowed. Now that Rhona wasn't slow dying, nor surprised by the sudden healing, she would notice that this man was about 6 ft tall and had all the muscles. His smooth caramel skin broken up by various tattoos. His hair would be black and white despite looking like he was in his mid 20's to early 30's. He would stare at her hand for a moment and raise an eyebrow.

"I... mean no offense. But I have no need for your hand. Thank you."

[Rhona Hall]

Realized real quick he didn't know what to do with her hand.

"It's... A bow where I come from. We'd face into each other's eyes and clasp hands giving a firm shake.” she mimicked it with her opposite hand. "It shows equal respect and measures ones confidence for the other. Strength and comradery."

"Still..." She stepped back a pace and mimicked his bow back to him. "When in Rome, do as Romans do."

[Sir Galahad]

Jovan would laugh heartily.

"Conquer. Indeed. But, if you have come here to conquer us, I'm sorry to inform you that scenario is unlikely if you couldn't even scare away a simple forest cat."

[Rhona Hall]

You speak my language and you know of some Roman stories at least, but you don't know what a hand shake is or the expression I just conveied?" She arched a brow. "I certainly am not here to conquer... You have my word, I left home for pleasure and exploration... Not much else. I just spoke with the intent to say that I wish to respect your ways."

[Sir Galahad]

Jovan continued smiling.

"Ah, I was not worried of your intentions, but I am never the less glad to hear that your intentions are pure. As for knowing stories of the Roman's, I say of course! Here, on this Island, we worship the great and Powerful Iskandar! Or, as you may know him, Alexander the Great."

With this said he would broaden his chest and shoulders and stand to his full height, looking as amazing as an old Roman Statue.

[Rhona Hall]

She gave it some thought and pondered somethings about what she was seeing.

So they call him by his Persian name unless her history lessons had been askew? She was unsure this felt right.

”My ancestry is mostly Greek that is, my mother's side at least. But that means we can closely relate despite having different names of our counter parts. Yes that is quite interesting and I would like to know more if you don't mind sharing the story of your people?"

[Sir Galahad]

Jovan would fold his arms and rub his chin.

"Well, while I for one and not one to deny a Beautiful woman... I can not share any more than I have until you have spoken to the tribe's elders. But, I need permission before I can take you to them. Right now, despite the pitiful display against the forest cat, you are still an outsider, and as such, a threat to our tribe."

[Rhona Hall]

"fair enough." She was flattered by the tall bronze fellow. "After helping me so much I am not going to ask and impose. Though do you have knowledge of a safe place I might temporary find sanctuary?" She'd hope the answer was positive or she'd be at the end of her rope. "I have no boat to leave from nor do I have direction to sail. I feel asleep on my errand to aid a singing lady and she nor her boat was with me when I woke up."

Not to mention she seemed to be without her Qi... Which is certainly not a good thing. She felt quite vulnerable day or night.

[Sir Galahad]

"We can wait here while the other two return to the village and talk with the elders."

He would say confidently.

[Rhona Hall]

"so it shouldn't be a long ordeal them..." She was relieved to hear that. "Fine, then if you can't talk much about your people, how about yourself?" She decided to find a place to sit and get comfortable she would make an inviting gesture beside her to offer him the same.

[Sir Galahad]

Jovan would go and take a seat beside her.

"Well, to be honest I don't know how much about me I can say without permission either, you see..."

He would then dig into a small bag pulling out some dried meat and start eating it. He would offer some to Rhona as well. If she accepted or declined he would continue.

"But, I can tell you that, I am a warrior for my tribe, one of the best hunters in our village... and... I was born with a very unique gift, but further on that I can't say. How about your self?"

[Rhona Hall]

She accepted the jerky who knows when her next bit might come from at least.

When he explained himself she would follow up with a bit about herself not wanting to pressure him with her curiousness.

"That is well I understand, I can at least tell you of my home land without fear of much if you are alright with that?" She paused a moment to allow him to confirm her question before continuing. "I hail across the sea and over some mountains we strive our hardest to become Gods. I am not the strongest but the lands are... continental. Still we mostly have skills of our own that vary person to person, we call it Qi. And some how I can't access most of mine or else that cat would have been as cooked as this meat." Just to put that on the record! She took a bite of it when she was done talking.
