Atreyus has a talent for remaining cool despite the sweltering heat of the jungle.  He is rarely less than perfectly coifed, and tonight is no exception as he lounges about the common room of the inn.  He's been here for a while, studying the flora and fauna of the various regions the turtle passes, and occasionally making short forays to sites of occult interest.  Tonight, he's engaged in some relatively low-stakes games of chance with a small group of casually friendly expatriates.  They move markers around a board with tiny wooden clacks, or play at cards.<br/><br/>The fact is, he's simply waiting.  He's been purchasing drinks and extracting information from all the new boarders for some time now, waiting for the turtle to come within range of something worth his time.  The jungle they're currently passing through sounds fascinating.  Now, he just has to locate a few sturdy companions, and then it's off to crack a mystery and get his name in the history books.
