[Frieda is definitely in for a surprise, isn't she? Not only is Lahabrea not his true name, but rather his "rank" on the Convocation, but he is also not female. For the Ancients, the concept of "gender" is a difficult one, with little meaning beyond niceties. Their culture had advanced sufficiently for them to be unconcerned with such frivolity. Nonetheless, Lahabrea will be no wiser about Frieda's assumptions.
All eyes are on Lahabrea when he enters the café. Not because he is a familiar face around these parts, but rather because the old man is so ridiculously tall. At a staggering 6 fulms and 9 ilms (205 cm) Lahabrea has to bow his head to enter the cozy establishment. The man is easily the tallest person in the room, even without any of the fancy cyber modifications that the majority of the locals appear to have. He's also dressed nicely in a black suit and tie with a tan long wool coat. Lahabrea had long abandoned his sophist robes in favor of something less startling. However, he continues to stand out like a sore thumb.
His presence here surely causes a sensation, especially since many people assume he's someone prominent based solely on his appearance. While they're not entirely wrong, no one needs to know that prior to his arrival in Ellipsa, he was the single leader of an entire world. No, he's not interested in dealing with such attention.
It dawns on Lahabrea that he should’ve asked Frieda for a description, especially since there’s quite a few people present here. The café is bustling on this auspicious afternoon. He glances around briefly before quickly sending a text to Frieda. Thank goodness he remembered to bring his phone with him.]
