What a curious device this is. And, a very convenient means of communicating as well — but I'm going off on a tangent.

My name is Ruva, and I'm what one calls "new" here. There seems to be a language that involves gesturing with one's hands, and I was wondering if anyone was willing to teach it to me. I'm afraid I have little to offer in compensation, but I would be ever grateful.

Also, if I'm understanding correctly, we're to complete these quests? While I'm still trying to grasp all this, I'd like to be of help, in those or around the town. I'm not much good in a fight, but I make for a decent healer, if that would be of use to anyone.

It seems only appropriate to respond to someone in the language they prefer, right?

Yes it makes sense. That would probably make them happy too, to hold a conversation that way.

Would it be difficult? There are a lot of words... And phrases you shouldn't take literally.

I get the feeling I'll have a lot of free time in this place.
