like any other being, and perhaps even more than most, tyrias required food. his people had learned through consumption- to eat was to love and to learn, and while he'd met some knowledgeable people ⎛ a poet comes to mind, and a few people he'd found at ... cafes? ⎠ , he was never one to say no to more. this time, he chose a marketplace to search. and to eat. mostly to eat.
there, he spots someone talking to another merchant about...
❝ is that something that the people of this city eat? ❞ once again, nothing in the city resembles anything familiar- except maybe that one space station, and even then. back beyond the stars, they had advancements far beyond anything he'd seen in this galaxy. ⎛ the term was homesick. tyrias was homesick, and he needed something- anything- to get his mind off of it ⎠ ❝ i ... have yet to understand enough about the beings here and their habits. ❞
by the standards of the skydwellers, tyrias is aware of how stupid he sounds. he remembers airi's laughter when he'd ask about the simplest of things. simple to her kind, but not to his. his kind had chosen lives of warriors and conquerors. they learned what was necessary to do that. and then, they would learn more by devouring the entities they conquered.
that sort of behavior definitely seemed like it wouldn't go over well in the city. and without his greatest abilites, tyrias had no way to defend himself if things got messy. ❝ you... look knowledgeable. about this- food, yes? ❞
