Teo, the Quiet Komuso

The monk puts a few fingers over his lips, chuckling again. “Your little friend doesn’t seem very fond of strangers. I’m sorry to hear you have been lonely as well.”

Teo calms quickly and folds his hands behind his back before. “I hope that you do come across new friends in the near future. It is good to surround yourself with people you feel close to.”

Rei shakes his head. “He knows about you Teo.” He sighs, scratching his cheek. “He sort of hates your guts.” He has his foot pressed against the robot to keep it’s face buried, muffled obsenity’s spouting from said spot

“Hates my guts?” Teo tilts his head to the side in feint puzzlement, though the sly smirk on his face shows otherwise. “Funny, considering he has never seen my guts before. But I will take your word for it.”

“Um…” Teo steps forward, cautiously looking around the space. “I’m sorry, but I think I’ve walked into the wrong tent. Are you the merchant that the townsfolk are murmuring about? I don’t think I’ve seen you around before…”

The monk holds a genuine smile, spreading his arms. “Of course. You are a welcome guest in these parts. I was worried that perhaps you were choosing to stay away from the village because of the townsfolk here. Everyone knows that it isn’t good for a yordle to be without company, yes? Sorry if I am being a bother.”

“No you are not a bother. Sit down” he offered the yordle a seat with a smile as he blew smoke into the air. “I avoid the town during the night because of the townsfolk yes. Traveling merchants are often seen as easy prey. So I camp outside. And don’t worry about me, I am just an old yordle. Nothing to worry about”

The yordle pauses for a brief moment as if having a sudden thought. He turns to Anivia again with a smile. “Which reminds me, I don’t believe I have ever met a creature like yourself. My name is Teo. It is very nice to meet you.”

Anivia paused a moment, looking over the yordle again. “Perhaps… If you happen upon the Yetis, do mention Queen Ashe of Avarosa’s name.” They wouldn’t understand his words, certainly, but such is the way of learning. At the very least, that name should protect him from… a rather swift demise.

“I’m afraid that I am unique among the creatures of Runeterra.” The nodded again in recognition of his introduction, “Welcome, Teo, it is a pleasure indeed. I am called Anivia, the Cryophoenix of the Freljord.”

“Anivia?” Teo slows down again, being careful not to stumble as the name tickles his memories. “I feel as though I have heard that name before, but I can’t say where from. If you are quite unique, though, I guess it is no surprise that people would speak about you around the world.”

“It was lonely for a while without your tea and company.” He admits, looking to the side seepishly. He was about to say more, before SAL chimed in.

“Sir, shall I proceed to target this yordle’s head?”

Rei sighed, his fist slamming into the machine and knocking it to the ground, to which a small “Ow.” Was heard.

The monk puts a few fingers over his lips, chuckling again. “Your little friend doesn’t seem very fond of strangers. I’m sorry to hear you have been lonely as well.”
