"You can relax," Zarina laughs as she places her hand on her hip. This Traveler was the talk of every region she's been to aside from Fontaine and Natlan, but even then the knowledge of Lumine had gone all across the world of Teyvat. Did Tighnari tell them that she returned to the Akademiya? Because it seemed like this young maiden could be here to ask about the Abyss, or, perhaps, she didn't yet know of her field of study. Or maybe it was Alhaitham, but she highly doubted that the Scribe... Pardon, Acting Grand Sage was the one responsible for the meeting. "If you expected a middle-aged guy who'd seen the depths of a nightmare like an adventurer, I wouldn't be upset. Just makes our meeting that much better, eh? After all, I'm such a pretty scholar. Haha, sorry, sorry. The name's Zarina Sokolova, I'm a scholar from Snezhnaya. A pleasure," without hesitation, the silverette offered her gloved hand for a handshake. "How about we take a walk? I've been asleep at my place for solid ten hours and I wanted to walk 'round the block to see what changed while I was away. Seems like you've helped Sumeru a lot, I've heard Lesser Lord Kusanali was freed. You're pre~etty popular. Did they give you a discount at the Bazaar?"
