Exit Fate: Meiko's Interviews

Nomad

Meiko: Today I'm meeting Nomad, an adventurer and treasure hunter...

Nomad: Uhm, I prefer the term 'archaeologist'.

Meiko: Well... it all depends on what your actual goal is, doesn't it? Are you actually trying to improve our knowledge of the past?

Nomad: That's right. That's why I'm looking for forgotten cities and lost civilizations. The treasure hunting part, well, that's just a way of paying for the whole business. I'm not as uneducated as you might think.

Meiko: Actually, I wasn't thinking that at all. After all, I know you studied history at Faraday University together with your sister.

Nomad: You've done your homework, huh? Yeah, it's true, but I left the university not long afterwards. I've been mostly wandering around for over twenty years now.

Meiko: If you've been doing it for so long, you must've been successful. Have you found a lot of interesting things?

Nomad: You bet! Avalon was one of my primary targets, but I've also uncovered cities in places as far as Parthinia. Usually, once I've found something, I just let my sis know about it and let her people take care of the rest.

Meiko: Now that you mention it, let me ask something about your sister. How come you parted ways when you had the same interests?

Nomad: Same interests? Hah, I don't think she'd agree with that statement. We've always had a different outlook on things. I like to follow my instincts and dig around for leads, she prefers doing intensive research. I mean, just look how we ended up. I've traveled all over, and she's too busy with her work as headmistress to even leave Faraday.

Meiko: Just one more thing. Your name. How did you end up being called Nomad?

Nomad: To tell you the truth, I think my real name is kind of embarrassing. It just doesn't suit me. So, when a few people started calling me 'the Nomad', it just stuck.

Meiko: Do you want to tell us your real name?

Nomad: Not really.
