Ooooh, he had a really deep and imposing voice.  Just listening to it sent shivers down Yuffi's spine, and she was left feeling utterly thrilled as she hurried to set the food down on the table.  He was inviting her to stay!  This was sure to be amazing!  She looked around a bit for a chair or other place to sit down at, since she was sure he wouldn't want her standing the entire time she was here, and after a few seconds she decided that climbing up onto the bed would be best, sitting on the edge with her legs hanging down over the sides.<br/><br/>Even though she had been expecting something amazing, the hobling's eyes still went as wide as dinner plates when she heard the next couple of questions he asked her.  They were going to the same destination, in order to compete in the same set of Games?  And they were going to be on the same team?!  She had left her own letter of admittance back in her room for safekeeping, but if Jarek would show her his own paperwork, she would easily be able to confirm that that really was her name on the paper, and that they would be on the same team.<br/><br/>And after that came one of those dream situations that she had been hoping for, an interview where she'd have the chance to talk up her skills, and maybe even show off what she could do...<br/><br/>"Well, since I'm small and light, I'm really stealthy, for one.  I've got a shortsword and a couple of daggers that I can wield pretty well, and I know how to pick locks.  I suppose that, using the usual adventuring terms, you could call me a Rogue."  That was certainly a good starter, something to give him a general overview of her capabilities so that she could then move on to where she was different from the norm, and what she excelled at.  "I once served as a Wizard's apprentice for a little while, though, so I also know a few magic spells!  Plus I know how to cook and clean, and I can sing, and I'm good at talking to people...  Oh, and I can be very acrobatic if I need to, as well.  My body's really light and flexible, so I can squeeze into tight spaces easily.  Do you think that will come in handy in the Emerald City?"
