History
Sorinn and Nyriia first met almost two years ago, not long after Nyriia first set out to conduct her research in the field. It would be at a tavern in western Myrell where their paths would first cross, with Nyriia being in the area seeking a bodyguard to protect her while conducting her field research, and Sorinn stopping over in the area while looking for work. Recognising how they can both benefit from it, the two of them struck up a partnership, one which has lasted lasted into the present day. Nyriia appreciates the safety and company having a travel companion brings her, while Sorinn appreciates the steady work their partnership brings her, and while she may act indifferent, she appreciates having some company.
Relationship Reasoning
Sorinn needed work, and Nyriia needed protection while out in the field.
