Garnet followed the conversation between her new 'friends' and the gnome with one ear — for a time. A time that wasn't [i]particularly[/i] long. The man's rambles turned into little more than a buzz in the background by the time Garnet scooped up the compass and realized she knew what it was for. Or rather, [i]where [/i]it was for; the Inner Planes.

She knew [i]something [/i]good would come out of watching her mother carve all those old-as-all-heck runes into her blades. When she was younger, she just assumed that something would be bragging rights to her father, who said they looked like drunken kenku-scratches.

Oh, and hold up! Hadn't the others just talked about the Elemental Chaos? And how oh-so-very-difficult it was to traverse and all? Because, um, not for [i]her![/i] Not anymore.

[color=#67844b]"I coul' do it!"[/color] she announced from where she stood, hands on her hips, compass still visible in one hand. She was grinning again, proud of a feat not quite yet accomplished. [color=#67844b]"Tra'erse t'e place with t'e stuff 'n' thin's! Easy!"[/color]

At the very least, she had the sense [i]not [/i]to add, 'with the compass I just stole from you'. Small victories. [/color]
