[Everett laughs when overhearing Lux's accusation and his puppy "confessing". What a precious scene, really. He' happy to sit to enjoy it himself, lifting his tea to his lips to breath in the smell and warmth]

Yes, that's where my people live, entirely beneath ground. Our cities are along a massive river channel, that runs warm throughout the year. We took our name from it, the Springtide. Even if the caves were vast, they did not have enough height to collect clouds for rain. I only ever saw it when conjured by Druids, and even then, only in small amounts. [ah, though he should mention]

When I left to travel the Above World, it was much more common. I'm very fond of the rains, as a result!

[ Clearly they're partners in crime! They both have a naturally disarming presence, so obviously they were made for one another.

Lux's eyes widen in amazement at his explanation, as she tries to wrap her head around it. Entire cities existing underground, and a people who may never see the sky. It sounds like something out of a fairy tale. ]

What drew them to the caves? [ She could make a few educated guesses, but she doesn't want to be rude.

Turning her attention out toward the garden, a quiet smile plays across her lips. ]

It rains quite a bit where I'm from, around this time of year. That's how you know that autumn is here; the days grow shorter and the rain sets in. I couldn't imagine living in a place without it.

Oh, we were banished there, my dear. [Everett says this very nonchalant. It's just a fact of their history, nothing he'd ever think to hide. Everybody in the whole of Myddvai knew the tales. There was no escaping it for him... not until arriving here, really.]

That was long, long ago. My goal as a Diplomat was to lift that from my people's heads. We are not banished as... individuals, but the Above World is not exactly kind to our presence. Few ever travel beyond our caves, if born there. I think that's a shame.
