A handful of Gridanians may remember a silent stranger helping to rescue survivors, bury the dead and rebuild after the Calamity.

Sui would probably talk to people for work or out of concern for their welfare or Nophica than anything else. He is an amiable but guarded character who will listen but only speak if he feels he can meaningfully contribute. Ishgardians may find him especially wary until he feels he can trust them.
