First time in a Human village

You are walking along a long, winding road towards the nearest Human town of Silverspire, humming to yourself as you think back on your leaving party with the rest of the air Ashari tribe almost 2 weeks ago now. As was customary for these 3-day-long events, the whole tribe spends the days feasting, telling tales of Ashari history and competing in shows of strength and artistry, all while completely naked. It is symbolic of the the nature that you are all a part of, the beauty of life and the great trust that they are placing in you as you set out to start your Aramenté.

Nudity amongst the Ashari is not uncommon, but it is never something you have been fully comfortable with, and this was the first time in years that you had gone without clothes. While everyone else was freely moving around, playing or chatting with each other, you remained firmly at the feasting table, your hands covering your lap and your chest hidden by the high table.

The thought of the whole ordeal brings a blush to your face and an unfamiliar heat to your loins. You shake your head, clearing your mind of such thoughts. You need to keep your thoughts on the task at hand. Being so far removed from the rest of the world, your father was only able to give you rough directions to your destination during the ceremony, and you had missed some of those when you became distracted by his thick, long pe... “Stop it Keyleth!” You scream to yourself. “Why are you even thinking about other people’s bodies, let alone your own father?”

You quicken your pace, hoping to outrun the thoughts that plague you. Soon though, you come to a fork in the road. The sign post that had been standing here seems to have been blown over by a strong wind, or maybe a large animal, leaving you unsure of which direction to take.
