Tazendra was studying in her room, so couldn't hear the door. Mogmi, on the other hand, was in the living room. Tazendra hadn't had much of a chance to go visiting: Mogmi had not seen this particular Dragaeran custom. Thus, rather than answer the door, after a check to see who was making that noise, she went to get Tazendra.
"There's a tall man clapping at the door, kupo. Probably a new Hero of Light." At least, judging by the Moogle accompanying him.
"And you have not let him in?" Tazendra asked, scowling. She was already on her feet, though, since naturally that meant the house had a guest.
"Was I supposed to?"
"Why, of course! He is informing us of his presence and wishes entry," Tazendra said, annoyed, than paused. "That is, in the... my home Empire, such is the custom." She was used to being in a foreign land. Less used to people thinking she meant the Heran Empire when she talked of home. "But, say, he was my height?" It wasn't a universal sign, but only Valvalis and Daisy approached human height of the Heroes Tazendra knew. And neither were male, nor human.
Mogmi nodded. "Around your height, kupo." To a Moogle, humans were generally tall, but Tazendra was notably oversized when one compared her to her surroundings.
"And I could not ask you if he is a gentleman," Tazendra noted. "But, he is a Hero, so that indicates some courtesy is due. Especially if he bears news from home. Go, answer the door."
Tazendra had just arrived at the entrance from the living room to the hall, when Mogmi was pulling the door open and apologizing for the wait. "Well!" she said, her face breaking into a grin.
B: This is long, sorry....
