Backstory[edit]
Nguyen had no real notion how far the colony had fled, refugees in a land that tolerated them but didn't necessarily accept them. It had been far. Their native appearance seemed to inspire a gut reaction of primal fear, but once folk got to know them better, and their reputation caught them up, mistrust typically became the prejudice of choice.
Local thieves proved the most eager to form relationships with his folk.
Which made sense. Most of them were well suited to the work.
Nguyen himself was adept enough at certain aspects common to these jobs, but his heart wasn't in it. He wanted to discover things, to pry secrets from the earth, and to understand the beings that shared his time and place.
He wanted to be around folk who, upon seeing him, defaulted to kindness and acceptance - no matter how weird they were themselves.
