1 <73618FF1> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Without further ado...
2 <9EECD894> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Heavens above, I'd completely forgotten!
3 <A12B6443> 2 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 W-what is it?
4 <D445F895> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 I'm so sorry... I've failed to mention what is
arguably the most vital facet of my identity.
5 <6E2302A7> 6 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 ...Come again?
6 <203F5BC5> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Ahem. I know it's rather late, but allow
me to formally introduce myself.
7 <DF5478E8> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Masha, Lapidarist Extraordinaire,
at your humble service.
8 <41F96E51> 3 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Lapi...what now?
9 <28A33004> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 A Lapidarist Extraordinaire, my dear.
An artisan of the crafts, if you will, in
drab layman's terms.
10 <E85EAA55> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 I specialize in gem processing and precious
metalwork, mainly, but I also dabble in many
other types of ornamentation.
11 <FCAE3CF2> 5 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Huh. Sounds like you keep busy.
12 <9CA44C22> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 ...Agh. Could I trouble you
for a bigger reaction?
13 <972654BD> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 A "You're the fabled Lapidarist
Extraordinaire?!" or "How inspirational!"
would fit well in this conversational beat!
14 <46F89569> 3 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 If anything, I'm surprised you had time to
learn to fight like you do, on top of all your
other hobbies, I'd say.
15 <6F0EAFFD> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 ...Oh. I hadn't considered that possibility.
Thank you for your honest opinion.
16 <3DB75136> 2 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 These crafts you're talking about...
You can make something from that
stone?
17 <671262B4> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 I can and I shall!
18 <EA83CF95> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Let's see... Judging by the
quality of this stone...
19 <E8C9C418> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 It might make for a fanciful ring.
20 <37F96B14> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Normally, it's my policy not to show
my methods to the general public...
21 <84971B02> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 But I'll make an exception
this time, just for you.
22 <C8FB8C08> W1 0x8100 0x4081 0x430 126 Now watch, as the City's lauded
Lapidarist Extraordinaire flaunts her
artisanal prowess!
