Stepping into what felt like a predominately human city, left Revas feeling rather strange. It was not the first time since waking that he had been within one, but much of his travels meant he had simply been passing through. Another elf among many others seeking a different destination and as a result, he'd gone largely unnoticed by the wider population. This time however, he was here for a reason, or rather a discussion with a certain human being in particular. It was not that such people had been overly hostile to him whenever he'd encountered one, but memories always stirred from long ago that ensured no matter how kind such people were being, his guard was always up. A habit he might have to try to fix in the coming years. Still for this trip into the unknown as it were, such caution should serve him rather well.
Meandering through the streets proved to be of little issue out here, few bothered those who kept their hoods up and their presence to themselves. While he had considered glamouring himself to appear human, the thought alone was enough to wash away such an idea. As far as he'd heard from rumor, Starkhaven was not so prejudiced as to harm him for merely being elvhen. Though in other places he knew he would have to do so, he would forgo such things here, at least for the time being. A smaller satchel had been brought along, half his usual load and with no staff upon his back he was sure he appeared mostly harmless - what danger could an unarmed elf pose really? As was the idea, he was not planning on lingering too long, nor did he want to stand out in the memory of others once he departed.
Being elvhen tended to do that enough already, no matter the veil being here or not, but small changes helped. Eventually of course, he had to cease in his roaming, it would do him little good when he had requested a time to meet this woman in advance. Though it was not set to be entirely out in the open, the space was large enough to move around, and notably with a few vantage points as well. Smart choice. Besides, anything out in the open was far preferred to being stuck indoors, he'd had plenty of that already - enough for a lifetime perhaps. And it seemed as though she was already there within the space, clearly such a place had been used for discussions before if the benches and faint greenery about the place were of any indication.
Revas made a point of it to make himself known, to not try to hide his footsteps as he approached, he'd rather not be stabbed just because he'd startled someone after all. Of course it might happen regardless, in his request to speak with someone, he hadn't mentioned that he was far from human.
