Hundred dollar bills under our sleeve

WHO: Kaz Brekker and you (yes you)
WHERE: Lots of places around Temba
WHAT: Kaz is learning about literally everything (catch-all for April)
WHEN: April
WARNINGS: Blanket warning that Kaz is a dick


Inn (Public Kitchen)

Kaz was already curious about this place, though he hadn't been here before. For lunch he did stop in to see who ran it, and more importantly, what was served as meals. Less important but still interesting, was how it was laid out and how it worked.

Hangar

With the ships already being docked here, it wasn't long before Kaz found his way out of the Bloodsport and into the hangar bay. It was very interesting to see many more machines but he had no idea what they were used for or what they did on their own. More interesting to see the other ships, and as expected, none would even unlock the door for him. Still interested, Kaz made a slow perusal around the hull of each ship.

Library

As expected for a library it was quiet here. Kaz simply adjusted his grip on his cane and with sound-absorbing felt on the tip, his steps were now soundless. Being here reminded him of the bookshop on Kaufmannstraße. It had the same sense of quiet with random dust motes flickering in and out of sunbeams. The only real difference was the lack of books on the shelves. While that was something of a disappointment, it wasn't a big surprise to Kaz. Kaz wasn't often surprised by the worst since that was usually what he expected. It was only the nicer parts of life that would surprise him at unexpected times.

The Deep End (Cayde's tavern)

Kaz had been exploring the tower when he came across the bar by accident. There appeared to be no bartender, though. That seemed to be true of many places in Temba; they were mostly what you would expect with one or two major differences to set expectations on their ear.

The greenish-blue light shining in drew Kaz's attention enough that he did look out the windows. He could see some sort of odd combination between a frog and a crab swim by. So this was part of the flooded area? Interesting.


Factory

As this area was largely derelict there was little of interest here for Kaz. He passed rusted pipes without seeming to notice much of his surroundings. He had come here with a singular purpose, though. Or perhaps it would be better to say he was looking for a singular person.

Gateway

Because Kaz used a cane to walk, it was surprising that he would even be able to navigate the overgrowth to begin with. But he picked up the cane and though he had a lopsided gait, he was agile enough that he could use the cane's handle as a hook and use the assisted jump to go over some clumped branches, or just side-step other obstacles. It was a maze to get through and more than once Kaz debated going back. But he persevered and eventually came to be standing before where the path sloped to continue underground.

Hangar

Until one of the doors did.

At least, it initially appeared that way. It was the door to the Bishop that opened moments later, the ARC Trooper stepping down into the hangar proper with his helmet tucked under one arm.

Echo eventually noticed Kaz examining the hull since there was no one else in the immediate area, pausing as the door closed behind him. "Find anything interesting?" he asked, "or are there any problems that need to be addressed?"

The vocal dissonance was jarring, but Echo ultimately appeared to accept that was just how Kaz sounded. His own brothers had different vocal pitches and nuances – maybe not to that extreme, but they were distinct enough to know who was speaking.

And he also appeared to believe the young man. A faint smile crossed his features as his eyes look at the panels of the ship. "They've been through a lot," he said, his voice clear and lacking any roughness around the edges. Traces of an accent was still present, but not as strong in the moment. "We're fortunate to have Engineers maintaining them. Looks like their work is still holding up."

This clearly stayed off the radar as Echo nodded in response. "Yeah. Everyone here came with whatever they knew."

He was sure they weren't hard to pick out, anyway; their little Temba population fluctuated a bit, but it didn't seem too big of a change.

"Although I don't know how different these ships are from anything some of us are familiar with."
