Didn’t act like any kinda flood I’ve seen, but who knows what’s normal for this place? Far as I’ve heard, it was the first one anyone’s been around for. [He grimaces for a moment, shooting an impatient look in no particular direction.] The only old-timers here are the ones running the joint, and they ain’t interested in giving us much warning.

[Then he gives his head a quick shake, and takes a look at Claude’s quiver. Bow and arrows, huh... yeah, either this guy was from the past, or another one of those weird not-Earth worlds. Chikai’s only experience with that kind of weapon was seeing his high school archery club practice once, and he can’t picture it being all that useful or efficient.]

Sure, sure. [He gestures for Claude to follow him out to the main room, which included a small table in the kitchen area.] We don’t got a ton of space, so if they don’t fit here, just go ahead and drop ‘em on one of the beds.

[They did have a spare at the moment, but Chikai doesn’t see a need to specify which one it is.]
