When you speak to them the first time Greetings, I am Shakru, Asken folk historian and from the University of Rivenleaf. This is the oldest site ever found where there is evidence of large scale pottery making of our ancestors...This is a site closely connected to the evolution of Asken folk society...It should be revered as a place of great importance in regards to ancestral craftsmanship and development...Rivenleaf University is well funded and can offer competitive trades for items of scholarly interest. Do you share my interest in the cultural differences of the different ages of us Asken folk in Braided Shore? Let's talk some about that next time we speak, shall we...?
When you speak with them the second time So, Wanderer...What is your favorite historical period? The fourth age; the Age of Halzhaan? Many interesting eras in that Age, I cannot but agree...The third age; The Age of Settlement perhaps? With its Exploration, Consolidation and Culturalization eras? Being the time of the original Khelim wanderers, I can imagine it would be of particular interest to someone like yourself. Or is it the ill fated Second Age, The Varhim Age that thrills you So few artefacts and evidence remains from that age. Perhaps the First Age of wonder; The Elden Age.

When the Asken children first landed in the Braided Shore, they simply could not have had the time or knowledge to hunt or farm. So how did they survive? Some folk say that the Sefra might have taken pity on the children and helped them and perhaps that is so. But I reckon that the children foraged in the woods and rivers, the Braided shore is after all abundant in wild berries, fruits and especially edible roots.
