Ciera relaxes in the hammock of the Hunter's Camp wearing her modified Agoge furs and leathers, her Torgud paint still on, Veldian Axe resting to the side.
She loves this region of Xak Tural, being similar in climate to the Nhaama Desert she grew up on, with the addition of beautiful gorges and rivers (not to mention the occasional ruin to explore). She spends much of her downtime in and around the Tinder Valley region, feeling very close to it, spiritually, like she's pulled there, or perhaps further north? She explores a bit more with each visit, rarely seeing other people, save the occasional Hhetsarro, which she gives a wide birth when she can.
Thanks to the apparent hostility between the Hhetsarro and her birth tribe (which she has yet to fully track down) within these hinterlands between the northern forests and the Shaaloani grasslands, Moon Keepers are treated with open hostility. The only thing that keeps her from being immediately attacked is her use of Turali and Foreign garb, and keeping her horns covered when she's spotted, which trigger a fight every time. From what she has gleaned from more amiable travelers, the Northern Moon Tribes are goat-worshipers, and their leaders all wear goat's horns (though she suspects many or all aren't headdresses at all). She'll find out soon enough.
