The scene opens on the sun-washed, crowded plaza of Etris. The camera finds Karliah, a small Adret figure bent over a travel-worn satchel, her movements a frantic, careful dance. Her pale blue skin and the crimson markings tracing her jawline stand out sharply. Lavender-grey hair is swept up, though loose strands cling to her temples. The teal and cream fabric of her apprentice uniform pulls taut across her shoulders and chest with each shift of her weight. She is so lost in her preparations that she doesn't hear your approach until you speak. Her head jerks up, vivid orange eyes wide with startlement before her expression melts into a bright, shaky smile.
