"Ipsen?" the man asked in a befuddled tone. "Why, I don't think I know any Ipsen. Like I said, I'm just a kitsune from Thantos that's also lost his way. Do you know what a kitsune is? Well, let me explain it to ya."
The man scratched at his chin, contemplating his next choice of words, but his eyes widened - though hardly noticeably with the intense shade of black. "No! No that is just not right!" he said in a rather feminine tone. "Oh, dear. What was I saying? My name is Lucy. Lucy Tur, at your service, m'lady. I'm a bard from Connloath-"
The man shook his head from left to right rapidly before returning his gaze back to Hana, this time with the look of fright an uncertainty. "U-Um.. W-Who are you?" he asked with a whimpered voice. "H-Have you seen my mommy? I-I-I do not-"
"Well, my goodness, what do we have here?" he interrupted himself again, this time with a broad, energetic voice. "Dax is the name, fuckin' is my game! Who might you be, little lady?!"
He stopped.
He just stopped. For a moment. No more talking and no more surprise voices as he face washed over in a blank slate. He slowly tilted his head to look at Hana as the black finally drifted away from his eyes.
Hello Hana," Ipsen said with a sinister grin. "Miss me?"
