Despite the months spent in this city, Sinbad is not foolish enough to assume he knows all of its secrets, nor what to expect as he turns any corner. There are still surprises to be had, truths to uncover, and in some cases, mistakes to be made. Hardly a day has passed since his return, yet he finds himself stumbling into such a situation already.
Never before has he seen a being who resembles either of his own djinn, nor the djinn Zepar. In his excitement and surprise, it seems only reasonable that he would jump to conclusions. Thus he assumes that the creature before him is the same wolf he met years ago and calls out with this in mind. “Valefor? No way! I was wondering what happened to... ah?” As the distance between them diminishes, he realizes his mistake. “Ah, sorry. I thought you were someone I knew... I don’t suppose you know Valefor, do you?” No, he thinks, it’s quite unlikely - but it certainly doesn’t hurt to ask, if only to shake off his embarrassment.
