Those to Come

Nayru did not laugh but merely smiled at the girl's innocent question. Although Eclipse was mistaken she was not the first to be suspicious of Nayru's knowledge. The woman knew names and faces before others did, she kept tabs on who came and went through Dahlia de Mai, what they did, where they went. She stored it all and could recall it at will. The black and white woman was apt at reading expressions, voices, and even when others tried to hide their motives, Nayru could usually read through them. It was not mind reading but it was as close as one could get. And her nature, so silent and stoic, lent to the illusion that Nayru was on another plane. Yet she was so very grounded on this earth. It was all a matter of getting in tune with the earth's energy, and the energy of those who inhabited it.



"Now why would you want to read anyone's mind?" She tilted her head slightly, crimson eyes questioning the little girl. What if one really could read minds, know the truth as people never told it? What good would that do the one who could read others? They would be burdened with the secrets and troubles that others carried about with them, unless they did not care. If they did not care such a power would be a curse, for the others who was subjected to being looked into without their consent. Nayru was glad that she couldn't really look into the minds of any others, though how she could convey such an idea to such a young child she wasn't sure, but surely they would arrive at that point.
