[Makie has had the facts of this place explained to her already, by a gentleman in a... fairly awkward situation.

It doesn't prepare her for the reality of a village with occupants like none she's ever seen before. Some of you aren't even human, Luceti. The hell. She wanders the path of the village from Community Building #1 down toward the plaza still in her New Feather dress, just like a gawking tourist, and spends some time staring at the fountain and plaza itself. Uh.

...right. Okay. Time to begin glancing through various shops in her attempts to find the places she was told her things would be. She finds her clothes with a measure of relief, and her shamisen at the item store-- and after she picks it up, she frowns. It's too light. She doesn't need to open it to know she's missing something.

Eventually, she'll find her way into the forge to pick up the last of her things, pays a visit to the Welcome Centre-- and then finally fetches up at the tea shop, which is the most familiar-looking thing here.

...sort of. Never really loses that dazed and confused look.]

Green? [Blink. Blink. Shakes head.] I've never heard of such a thing! How strange. What's it like?

[Searches about for green tea because unlike honey, that sounds fascinating.]

Bitter but light? That sounds excellent! I'll have to try it!

You don't have to add honey to it, right? [... She really doesn't like honey.]

Excellent. I'm Siuan Sanche. [Siuan fiddles with the blue stole on her shoulders for a bit. She feels like she should add something else. What do normal people do in circumstances like this? Yeah.... she has no clue.]

Are you new here?

Very new. [Uncertainly bows back. Bows? Shouldn't they curtsy? Che. Whatever.]

I've only been here a couple of months... it takes a lot of getting used to. [AKA: she totally isn't used to it yet.]

Really? I hadn't noticed any.

[Says the woman who used to live in a pit of vipers and even then had trouble navigating the personality clashes and politics despite being the leader.]
