Dinner Party [D3, EE, OPEN]

[Moto Butaj]

"Maybe there is no need. Butaj guesses there are many tasty and succulent fruits that grow only here, and not in the Burning Sands." He looks between the Rabbit, the Moshi and the Mantis.

[Yuzuki]

"That is probably true," she said, not picking up on any innuendo if indeed there was any. "Though need and want are two different things," continued.

[Moto Butaj]

"So you desire produce from far away? If your fleets are as mighty as you speak, why not sail to Merenae or the Ivory Kingdoms ot trade?"

[Yuzuki]

"Ah. Uh."

Well shit.

"It's frowned upon."

[Moto Butaj]

"Sailing?" Butaj looks confused.

[Yuzuki]

"Trading with the Gajin," she answered. "Though if you want the details of why, it's probably best to ask someone more versed in history."

[Moshi Asakiko]

"Well we are curious of your new ways and we can trade with you. You can trade with those you have met afar I am guessing."

[Moto Butaj]

"For that we need to find a new way back into the Burning Sands. The one we have arrived my is not suitable for caravans." He smiles at Asakiko. "You can ask Butaj about things if you're curious of Unicorn ways and if Butaj knows, he will answer."

[Moshi Asakiko]

"Arigatou Moto sama. The food was quite different. I am wondering what other exotic things can be found in the sands?" She looked at the Moto' s clothes.

[Moto Butaj]

Butaj notices her gaze and looks at his clothes too. "For Butaj things here are exotic, but he gets what you mean. But Butaj would not know where to begin, so many things are different. Leathers rather not though, leathers are pretty common."

[Moshi Asakiko]

She nodded. "Ah and what about the animal pelts. It is unusual to see people use the animal pelt as clothing. What is the purpose of that?"

[Moto Butaj]

"It's never been unusual where Butaj was born. It's ever been normal for the Unicorn. Those who travel do not sow and grow plants that give threads."
