*After a long day of travel and sleep, she arrives at the plains. While appreciating the scenery of the plains, she spots a smoke trail rising up into the sky, and smelling some potential clients, she decides to stop by just in case, in the worst case scenario she gets jumped by a group of bandits or something, so no big deal she thought. When approaching the source of the smoke, she sees Carnelian sitting down next to the fire pit, and decides to first check if he is even friendly, or would be bothered by her setting up a camp next to the fire. She jumps off the top of her wagon while grabbing her longsword just in case, stops the horses, and calmly makes her way to the potential client, approaching him while speaking in her usual, unenthusiastic tone of voice*

"Hey, i would like to know if i could set up a camp next to the fire pit, it would make my life a lot easier. But if not, then i'll just find another place if that's okay"
Kandace
Stopping his work, Carnelian's head would flick to the source of the noise. He was drabbed in robes and donned an angular, mechanical-looking mask. His beady, solid blue eyes scanned both her figure and her wagon.

He would speak in a gleeful, slightly-robotized voice, "You are more than welcome to share the fire with me. What is your name?"
Larry
*She stops for a moment, surprised to see what looks and sounds like a automaton in such a place*

"Ah, my Name is Sonne, i was hoping for a potential client but oh well, the company is great too, i'll be right back, just gonna set up my wagon around here if that's alright"

*Sonne gives off a faint smile before going back to her wagon and guiding the horses so that camp could be set next to the fire pit. Letting the animals have their well deserved rest, and waking up her doggy, popopoka, she set's everything up nicely in a short amount of time, trying not to make the stranger wait for too long. She then sits down besides the fire pit, her dog following her, sits down too, expecting some pets from her, which she promptly gives to popopoka.*

"Everything done, hope that wasn't too long of a wait, normally it takes a couple of minutes or so to set everything up, but i tried to be fast this time... You asked me my name, can i ask your's too? Just to simplify things."
Kandace
Carnelian nodded at her reply and simply let her get to work setting up her camping supplies. The automaton continued mashing herbs into a paste with his mortar and pestle. He would continue that light tune he was humming prior to meeting this lady. Only breaking occasionally to look up to take note of her presence. Carnelian would be delighted by seeing the care for her steeds and pets. 

Once she sat by the firepit, he set aside the mortar and pestle to his hip and clasped his hands together. 

"My name is Carnelian. It is a pleasure to meet you, Sonne."
Larry
"Beautiful name, and a fitting one too. I liked the tune you were humming, it is quite soothing, my companions most certainly like it as well"

*She looks at popopoka, now fully relaxed on the floor, enjoying the belly scratches Sonne is giving, and then at her horses, peacefully sleeping by now*

"If it would be okay to ask, i would like to know why you're here all by yourself, i don't see many people here in general, let alone without partners... Also, do you perhaps work in the field of medicine?"
Kandace
"Why thank you for your compliments, it is very appreciated. My travels are a form of pilgrimage for my order and yes I do know an extensive amount of medicine I was designed to be a healer by my creator."
Larry
"Ohhhhh... I see, you know, i do really admire those that work with medicine, such a beautiful field of expertise... Oh well, too complicated for me anyways, but i'm somewhat satisfied, being a wandering cook is not that bad to be honest."

*She sighs in disappointment, and looks to the black sky filled with tiny white dots, and a beautiful moon, wondering what her life could have been like had she been properly educated, maybe she could have been a medic? Saving lives, or maybe a well respected scientist that helped many with her inventions... Too late now i guess*
Kandace
"There is a beauty to behold in various professions. The one that you are proficient in is one that I would never be able to fully experience. Would you care for some tea? I happen to have cured leaves, as long as you have a pot to boil water."
Larry
*Sonne chuckles, a wandering cook who doesn't have a pot? That would be tragic to say the least*

"Of course i have one, if you want me to cook i can also prepare something simple to go with the tea, though i don't think that will be the case. Ill be right back with the pot alright?"

*She slowly stops caressing popopoka's belly to relax her some more so she could sleep, and gets up to grab a pot, some water, and a set of sophisticated cups for tea. Quickly coming back, she sits down once again, and gives him the pot and a bottle of water to boil*

"Here, i also grabbed some cups to drink with if that's not a problem"
Kandace
Carnelian would give a slight nod in response. He would lean over to his mountain-bag and slip his hand into into a side pocket where he would retrieve a small pouch that he would set next to the mortar and pestle. Once Sonne returned he would fill the pot and sit it near the fire to boil saying,

 "Thank you. . . You had asked me earlier why I travel alone, but I never got to ask you why do you travel alone?"
