I. A Lively(?) Debate Well. If it's Natalia Koutolika, spreading knowledge and stories, what better way than the dockside champion of the boast to make a boast?
"Boasts for the hale-hearted, those unwearied world-walkers, whose tales command and whose fortitude is unmatched! Speak your poems of heart and rising! Come and let me hear you, truth-teller, fist-fighter, for you know, when you speak of one whose boasts are unrivaled, you speak to Natalia! So willing am I to be challenged, I will let you boast first."
II. Stacked To The Nines If there's one bad habit Natalia picked up in the Army, it was never to turn down a free meal. And so, rather than doing the polite thing, she has stacked her plate to ridiculous levels, balancing it only by supernatural coordination and skill, plates and bowls of a dozen different cultures piled high.
She's not sure if she can eat it all now, but she'll sure be able to eat it all later.
... Though she'd better make sure no one realizes she plans to hoard this, huh...?
III. A Dancer's Duel In the dueling hall, Natalia picks up a pair of meteor hammers and breathes. If nothing else, this latest challenger seems like the perfect opportunity to test her dancing and casting to the utmost, and an incredible opportunity for her to teach others the start of the secrets of the Inner Lotus.
And perhaps, of course, the Inner Lotus is not quite the same here, that it is back home. Perhaps it is not a shard of divine nature, urging itself into living flame blossoming flower fruits of hard work.
But it is close enough, she thinks, that teaching it will do no harm.
Well. For the average citizen, anyway. Other PCs have different paradigms.
