[Well, it's difficult to appear like a captain without one's ship. In truth, Sturmhond has been retired for years — minus a brief appearance for vital business in Ketterdam, for which Nikolai assumed his old alias once more. Presently, a blue pea coat takes the place of the teal frock coat he used to favor in his role of captain. Black leather gloves seal his hands.
Spotting Konoha, Nikolai flags her attention with a wave. Although he had seen her picture, her equine form still manages to inspire some degree of astonishment. It's one thing to see still image, quite another to the fluid movement of human and horse parts in tandem.]
Good afternoon, Miss Konoha. I hope you're keeping warm. Winter in Sumarlok doesn't hold a candle to Ravka's winters, but there is a slight breeze.
