Loki refrained from letting any of the surprise at the kusarian woman’s forwardness and simply continued to smile and said, “Actually it is Valmir not Vladimir but I can understand the confusion I don’t have a very common last name”
In response to her question he slowly started to look over the strange glowing stone she held up to him. His smile faded away and look of intense curiosity replaced it as he thought about the possibilities of the what the object quite be. It seemed to resemble descriptions of active nomad artifacts that he had heard about but he had no idea what the objects use might be as he had never encountered an object like it in person. After a few moments of staring at the object he looked back up at the woman and replied, “Honestly my best guess would be some sort of Nomad artifact and since it is glowing I would assume it is active and not one of the useless conversation starters some rich folks are fond of. I wouldn’t even begin to guess at what it does though since I really don’t have much first hand experience in the matter. I am sure whatever it does is fascinating."
