Lucia looked around the forests of the city of Yrkanis seeing no familiar faces, and not even knowing if this was her home. She takes in a deep breath and wipes her windswept raven hair from her face with her left hand revealing sapphire eyes and her mouth opens to speak.
Greetings, my name is Lucia and I am a newcomer here to these lands. I am not certain why I have come here, come to think of it, until recently I was not even sure of what race I was. I was orphaned at a very young age by the Kitin I believe you call them. I spent my younger years in hiding and learning to use a sword to defend myself. That is, until I found I could wield magic as well. I have come here because it was close to where I normally stayed and it seemed that if I was to get anywhere as far as finding some semblance of family this was the place to start. Although I am a Matis, I do not know my people's Lore, History, nor their customs. I know the other races have a great mistrust towards the Matis, but please, understand I was not raised around them and any reasons you may have to dislike them so, may not be present in me. I am looking for a guild who is close, and kind, a place to call home I guess you could say. If anyone knows of such a place, if you could help me find them I would be greatful.

Re: A stranger in an even stranger land.
Hello! I'm glad you have found your people. Unfortunately our race is in a bad position right now. We lost much of our own lore in the chaos, but we know we had a glorious kingdom. A glorious kingdom that made many mistakes. Aniro III hastily struck at the Tryker and Fyros after the Fire of Coriolis. He moved too soon, and used military force. Then when the kitins came, we failed to protect Atys, instead attacking the other races to take advantage of the onslaught.
This has left us with a very bad name.
But the Matis are a race of nobility and majesty, we will rise above this. It's good to hear that you're skilled in combat. The kitin are becoming more aggressive, and the chance to redeem ourselves may be coming sooner than we'd like.
Good luck finding a home. It can be hard in such a fractured Atys.

Lord Aniro made no mistake. The time was ripe for our people, and we failed him!
*shakes his head at madnak for a moment, and than turns his attention to Lucia*
Welcome to the adventure, Lucia. We've met before not far outside the Yrkanis gates, but I was wisked away.
I've found my way home now. So if you need a friend, just call for me!
