I took the stars from my eyes and then I made a map And knew that somehow I could find my way back Today started off as nothing special. If Eden had it in her to be bored she would be so, but instead she focused on the nicer things about it-- it might be slow and quiet but that could be taken as a good thing. No international or existential crisis looming forebodingly on the horizon, not right now. Just the wind, the cheery townspeople and the lazy atmosphere.
She curtsied low within the private chamber (it was harder than you might think, considering the fact that Eden has never worn a skirt before and a cursty in pantsuits didn't have quite the same effect), giving the news as she was bid before turning to leave.
It wasn't until she was out the door that the day took a turn from nothing to-- well, something.

He clutches a small package under his arm. Lyndon doesn't know what's inside of it. As per usual, this was also for the better. Most people would have wondered if this was for their own good or for their good, but it did not matter very much to him. It is slim and wrapped in brown parcel paper, and if he were to warrant a guess, Lyndon may have thought there might be a book inside. He slides it into the satchel the others provided for him. It was only when he looked back up did he realize that he wold have collided with a young woman if he hadn't stopped himself in time. Lyndon's hand slides into his pocket, retrieving a sliver of paper. "Miss Farron?" he asks, reading the name off of it. "I was sent to accompany you on this delivery. I hope to live up to your expectations." The boy gives her a small smile and a polite nod. sapiens qui prospicit

Before she managed to collect herself from her daze for a reply he spoke, confusion slowly fading from her eyes.
"Oh! I'm very sorry, I wasn't informed of this. It's very nice to meet you!" Why they hired someone to aid her was in the air but she wasn't one to doubt or question too much. He looked like a sweet kid, anyways.
She ran a hand through her hair as she looked the package over, not entirely sure what was wrapped inside the brown paper and not exactly caring. The men of the council and the higher class families dealt in too many things between each other for Eden to involve herself further than necessary.
"Eden Farron, running Irkallan courier. Though... you already know my name, huh? Heehee, sorry. May I get yours? We can talk as we walk!"

"It was a bit of a last minute arrangement," Lyndon admits. Under normal circumstances, he would have gone alone to make the delivery. Not yet a man, it was easier for him to maneuver through the crowds undetected, and Lyndon did not exactly possess what could have been a threatening mien. It helped with work when people felt they could trust you. "My name is Lyndon," he says to her as they turn down the hall for the exit. "It's Lyndon Joyce." This should be fine. After all, nowhere was his name actually documented. Benefits of being abandoned at a young age, he supposed.

Kind of adorable when it came down to it.
"It's a pleasure to be doing business with you, Lyndon. Ah-- Lambert.... Lambert.... Ah! That's... only.... that way!" She was tapping her chin as she spoke, leaning forward just a little bit and scrutinizing the streets around them as she recollected the area from memory. At her final exclamation she stood up straighter, pointing with the same vigor she did most things.
"Huh? You don't know what's in it? That's odd.
Looks like... maybe... a book? Normally they wouldn't hire official couriers for something so simple, but you can't really blame the noble people. If I was as high class I'm not sure I would ever get things done myself, hee." She knocked herself on the head and flashed Lyndon a grin, stepping in line next to him and attempting to lead the way.
"Tell me about you, Lyndon!"

That was a load off of Lyndon's shoulders. Quite frankly, he had no idea where to find this Lady Lambert. He had been banking on his partner to know, and luckily enough, Eden seemed to know the way. As Eden takes a few steps forward to survey the area, he follows quietly and gives her a small nod. "Maybe it's something important," he responds with the slightest of shrugs. Quite frankly, Lady Lambert might not even exist at all. That would explain why Lyndon had been given the package as opposed to Eden. Eden was only here to point him in the correct direction, along with aiding to keep the lady's image up as a noblewoman of Irkalla. "About myself?" he asks her with a slight blink before falling in step beside the messenger. "Tell me about you." That was always a dangerous question. Say too much, and that would cast immediate suspicion. Say too little, and the effect would be the same. "There... isn't much for me to say, Miss Farron," he says to her. "My employers are very important to me though. They are like my family." And that was the truth, considering the fact that Lyndon had little to no idea where he would be if a man with blond hair hadn't stopped to ask him where his shoes were ten years ago. sapiens qui prospicit

I took the stars from my eyes and then I made a map And knew that somehow I could find my way back She cast a glance back at him, a question hanging on her lips that she'd never ask. She didn't really need to know more than what he gave her-- though to be hired alongside her his employers must be some kind of high class. Or just have good connections, which was ultimately all she did.
"Please, Lyndon, just call me Eden. ... Do I really look old enough to be a 'miss'?" She stopped as she contemplated this, pouting a little and running a hand through her hair; before shrugging it off and continuing on, making sure Lyndon was with her all the way. "No grays, no problem."
"That sounds nice, though." She sighed, almost wistfully, refusing adamantly to touch on the subject of what his actual family might be like if he spoke of his employing one with such reverence.
"Were you born here in Irkalla?" Her tone was pleasant if not curious, leading the way through crowded streets and resisting the urge to grab on to the boy so he doesn't get lost.

Had he offended her? Lyndon casts his eyes downward for a moment, his steps slowing as he fell into his ruminations. In any case, Eden was right. She couldn't have been more than two years his senior. "I... usually address people by their surnames if I don't know them very well, or if they're my superior. But if it's okay to call you Eden, then I can do that. Eden... It's, um, it's a nice name.""I think that it suits you."He's said too much and falls silent as Eden begins to speak again. But she's asked him a question. It's an invitation to say more about himself. A slight frown tugs at the corners of his mouth when he responds. "I think so, yes," he says. "I assume so, anyways. I've lived in Irkalla all my life, so I must have been born here... How about you, Miss -- ah, Eden?"sapiens qui prospicit

I kind of like it, though. My mother chose it."
She stopped herself before she started rambling, forcibly nudging back the part of her that made it so easy for her to talk with strangers. She was rather fond of the younger male already regardless.
Out of the corner of her eye she managed to note the frown forming and resolved to stop pushing the spotlight over on him if it was making him uncomfortable. "Ah, I see. Yes! I was-- I've actually never traveled further out than the outlying areas of this city. I'm very deeply patriotic when it comes to Irkalla, hehe. I like it a lot, and all the people that take residence here.
That includes you, of course! And the people I'm a messenger for. Like this... ah... miss Lambert! ... I'm pretty sure we're going the right way."

He gets the sense that unpleasant memories are beginning to crop up for the two of them. "I see," Lyndon says as his brow furrows. There were many things that he did not know about himself, and for the most part, he was not particularly concerned with them. He knew, intuitively, that Lyndon was his name. But if one were to ask him how or why, he would have been unable to answer. Of course, the statement about Irkalla was a lie. There had been a time when he had, in fact, been taking residence out in Shara. Shul, in particular, but he had not lied about Irkalla being home. This was where he felt most comfortable, probably because this was also a place he knew as well as the back of his own hand. There was not a doubt in his mind that Eden would be fighting for Irkalla. "The sign that we just passed read 'Eagle Street'... Our destination is on Maribel Avenue. Is that anywhere nearby?"(not at all! i think you're doing fine. also i apologize for how late this response is orz) sapiens qui prospicit
