<a class="postlink" href="https://i.imgur.com/0o3dwf5.png">((OOC: Reference pic of Nayeli Xochiquetzal, my character!))</a><br/><br/>Being one of the few travelers from outside the continent, Nayeli often tried reminding herself that she was here on work, studying other cultures while away in order to know how to best heal them, and earning money and knowledge before she got to return home.<br/><br/>And yet, even as she was stuck inside an underwater palaquin, Nayeli couldn't help but press her hands against the sides of her underwater palaquin, seeing the sea creatures in their own home. A part of her wondered how would many of these fishes taste (especially the mermaids!), but all of these people were fascinating to look at. It was like staring at a wholly alien world. Much unlike the previous places she had visited outside of her jungles, the sites by the sea were easier to wear the usual... well, few clothes she had. A loincloth with a thong and a band over her chest.<br/><br/>Nayeli felt the sudden movement pressing her against the cushion underneath. She caressed their soft fabric, wondering how come it was made to be so<span style="font-style: italic">comfortable</span>.<br/><br/>It was then when she saw that fishing boat. When she was brought up, Nayeli almost clung to the edges, grinning all the way, seeing a new group of people. The tanned woman straightened, pushed her bust up, and settled the long dark-blond braid behind her to avoid it from touching the water and sand.<br/><br/>Upon pressing her left sandal on the warm sands, she felt the air swell her lungs in awe. Her right sandal followed. Nayeli Xochiquetzal stepped forth, looking at... looking at the eclectic party that she saw. New people she could assist in both childbirth, and in combat. She took the job as a mercenary and a bodygurd, given Teocatlán midwives knew far more about combat than would be expected from most people, and being a merchant-warrior was profitable. Maybe being a midwife wouldn't be as--<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Whoa!</span><br/><br/>Nayeli gasped with delight upon witnessing the people on that fishing boat. So many filled bellies! She nearly crawled closer like a jaguar woman. This all reminded of herself and her whole family every time there was a festival...<br/><br/>"Um... Hello! I am Nayeli Xoxhiquetzal. I am a foreigner to these lands," she then rose her head and asked with a cheerful smile, not even knowing if it was a blunt question to ask. "Who of you is pregnant or obese? Just to keep track."
