Orpheus nods along as the man speaks, lighting up slightly as he realizes that maybe this is something he can help with.

"Well," he says. "I can't help with the squids, or the blood magic? But I may know some things that aren't recorded here, or that may be hard to find. You're a Sleeper, right? Were you one of the ones who came from Deerington, before you were here?"

Because that seems like a good place to start, at least. Others might've already filled him in on what Orpheus knows, but he figures there could be some bits and pieces he's picked up along the way that could prove useful.
