Ramza returned her introduction with a nod of his own, not quite deep enough to be a bow.

"I am Ramza...Beoulve, my lady," he answered. There was only the slightest pause as he decided to offer up his true surname. In this strange land, there seemed no need of an alias. "And this is Simon," a gesture to his moogle. Simon parroted the nod to Ashelia and gave a less formal wave to Merlose.

"And it is as you believe. I arrived not a few hours past. Have you been here a long while?" he asked. "And the others you mentioned?" He tried to reign in his questions so as not to overwhelm the lady, but there was plenty more he wanted to learn from her, if she was willing to talk further.
