*The treton smiled at the comment about streets being half built and voiced in an excited tone* "I assure you they'll get finished 5 times faster with me here, and the crops are no trouble for me since back in my hometown i used to care for them with another guy." *He set the supplies down besides him, and approached the water, lightly touching it with his hand* "Forgive me for what i'm about to do, but i've been waiting to do it for a long while now" *Nak'sem smiled and quickly took his shirt off, revealing a couple dark scars along with tattoos lining his back, he lets go of his hair and sprints into the water while laughing loudly, diving into the deeper side of it.*
*He splashed and leaped in the water revealing what looked like an orca's tail, shimmering with trickling water and what seemed to be a state of pure happiness on Nak'sem's face. It was to be expected since after all, it had been weeks since he last had contact with deeper waters.*

*Terrel gave a slow shake of his head as the man jumped into the lake, this being the second time its happened. He lightly tugged his horse away from the water's edge, figuring it better not to continue drinking it at this point.*"Guess I'll just wait then."*He says, figuring they'll be here for a while, before glancing over towards the transformed Treton swimming about in the water.*

*As a couple minutes went by Nak'sem surged out the lake with a wide, satisfied smile on his face; though that was quickly shot down from what he thought was a face of disappointment on terrel's half-exposed features. He walked out straining his hair of the remaining water and then said* "I'm sorry, i tried not wasting that much time since i know you just wanna get to town... Thanks for waiting for me either way." *He gave terrel a half smile, and began drying himself a bit with his shirt, and throwing it over his shoulder. He picked up the supplies and voiced his thoughts* "I'm glad to be here traveling with you, to be completely honest i never thought i'd make it this far so quick." 
*Then, changing subject and signaling he was ready to continue the walk he said* 
"By the way, that carved token I made us is a promise token. As long as you have it i'll work for you and be here whenever you need. When you don't need or want me here anymore, you return it. Some fellows have kept it for years on them." *He then placed a hand in his hip pouch and pulled out a small handful of tokens, some in pairs, some alone, showcasing it to Terrel* "Simple as that. Helps to keep track of my jobs, and they each have their own stories but i'm not gonna bore you with details."

*Terrel reached into his pocket at the mention of the totem, looking at it while the Treton explained its purpose.*"Hm... Seems like a loose string to tie anyone down with, but I suppose I can put it to some use."*The Silnari looked back towards the Treton, letting out a light chuckle before turning away and continuing along the path towards the towns.*"You know, most will be hanging around the hotsprings in the coming days. Maybe you'll enjoy the spot with the others working around here."*He said to him, in casual invitation before offering a light shrug.*"Or not. I'm sure you're more geared to reading those books of mines during your stay."
