Khronik looked genuinely confused at this statement. “Hiding? Me? I’m just here.”

OOC: Khronik does not consider HiPSing to be abnormal, seeing as when his mother said “Your father is watching over us” he(Khronik) just thought it meant his father had a high hide skill.

“My mother always said that I should do my best to remain unobtrusive and not get in anyone’s way. It’s the best way to avoid annoying them. Plus, I don’t know how many people have seen a real gnome before, so I don’t want to be a distraction.”

He thought for a while before blurting out…

“Why do you carry a longbow at sea? Surely if anything was to attack you at range, you’d see it coming with enough time to arm yourself? And what did your mother do that she needed such a well crafted item?”
