"Well, why don't you tell me about yourself. As you probably know, I am Chronos." Chronos dipped his head in greeting. "I don't recall seeing you around here, so I suppose you are new."

"Taboo, your queen has thought I am a broken spirit, thought I assure you it's a misunderstanding." He said, still not sure what to think about this Tribe, though he was certain there'd be little to no escaping now that the Queen and her minion knew what he looked like.

"Is that so, Taboo?" Chronos meowed, glancing sideways at the new cat. "There must be a reason why she assumes you're broken. What have you done? And where do you come from?" He wasn't sure he was going to declare this cat that looked perfectly fine a broken spirit, and especially since he'd seen Delinqua's sense of judgement.

"I was simply confronted by her and another cat, I began asking questions and I decided before joining or refusing I would think about it, but the other cat had pinned me down because I'm guessing she thought I wouldn't return to answer properly. Also, I am simply from a place away from here, thought I've been padding around your Tribe's territory for the past moon or so," Taboo explained to Chronos, hopeful that he'd at least be reasonable.
(When you are reminded of Cotton Eye Joe when you see the phrase 'Where do you come from?' or 'Where did you come from?')

(Dunno what Cotton Eye Joe is)
"Were you lost?" Chronos asked thoughfully, turning his head towards the stones. "I suppose it has to do with the questions you were asking. I'll tell you now that we have rules here, and some things cannot be spoken. I don't blame you for not knowing, though."

(It's a song, really catchy)
"I suppose you could say I was a lost spirit, I'm a stray cat, wild but not with any group, I learned you can't say Sun or moon when your in the Tribe," Taboo said, listening intently to learn what he could before being subjected to join or die.

Chronos narrowed his eyes slightly. "I am convinced you can still be 'saved'. Although. Do not say those words here, and as I said, there are rules, things you cannot say. Our ways might still be a mystery to you, but you can begin to follow our code should you wish to join." He flicked his tail as he stopped staring at rocks. "Delinqua is quite strict about the rules, as you probably already know. Me too, but we deal with the cats who break the rules differently. Please do not say those words here." Chronos hoped that Taboo would understand and get the idea.

"I caught onto that, and I've been informed i will be killed, purified and eaten if I refuse to be 'saved' so I have no choice but to join," Taboo said, glad he knew some things from his persistent questioning of the Queen, apparently named Delinqua. "Thought why can't you speak of the names of the orbs that rise and fall in the sky, that is the names that the other wild cat groups and upwalkers use?"

"You do have a choice; be killed and eaten, or be 'saved'." Chronos pointed out. "But I assume you don't want to be killed or eaten, so yes, basically you have no choice except to join." He paced back and forth in front of Taboo. "As for the words that cannot be spoken... there is a reason, a reason that is lost in time. Ancient rules that persist until today, standing against the river of history, until it has become an important part of our everyday lives. I am sure the other groups have their own rules, and those rules come from a time long lost in the past, too. There is a reason for everything, but sometimes we do not know these reasons. I trust you understand the idea?"

"Ah yes, like the reason why we must follow said rules, seemed to be fused into our blood like two clumps of mud sticking together," Taboo replied, thought if he had to deal with that Delinqua he would've taken being killed and eaten any time, despite the fact he was much more interested in learning about this new tribe. His eyes were still skeptical after he spoke, eyeing Chronos, "So what role do you play?"
