Since the encounter with the strange man, Texeteti' had felt conflicted while he went around his daily routine.  Though his closest allies told him not to worry, Texeteti' had to wonder.

Should I have helped the Besernian Kilaweioni population?

Though it didn't matter anymore, because of how life was.  A loud SPLAT!

When Texeteti' went to investigate the sound, he found an injured bird that had run right into the window of his home.  The glass cracked, and the bird looked worse for wear.  

A bad omen... it is always bad when the birds run into your home...

"Texeteti', we have a message for you!"  An spritely young woman knocked on the door, sliding through with a wide smile on her face.  "A little thing you might be interested in."

"My dear sibling!"  Texeteti' shouted, holding out his arms for a clumsy hug.  "What is it?"

"You know there is a festival that will be taking place later on in Rugenbouen, I have a feeling you might be interested since it includes Finixi festivities, and especially Kilaweioni pride.  I was reading on the internet-"

"How many times do I have to say that the internet is the root of all evil, my dear sibling?"  Texeteti' frowned.  "I don't want you to fall into the Valkyrian brainwashing schemes!"

"I won't fall for simple mind control and you know it."  

"Alright then."
