A Stranger Settles
#6
Ayasha could understand not wanting to tell a stranger why he left if it was because of drama. She didn’t want to pry into his personal life. She might have pushed him to tell her if she was younger, when her curiosity had no boundaries. But now that she was older, she knew when to keep her questions inside, or at least not as invasive. ”That’s alright. You don’t need to tell me if you don’t want to.”

She cocked her head to the side at his use of the word “court.” What did that mean? ”What is your court?” But she did nod at showing him around and telling him the basics. ”Sure. I can tell you that we’re part of a larger group called the Great Tribe. And we’re big into respect, especially respecting nature.” She didn’t know if he knew about the war or not so she didn’t mention it. But she did giggle at his head toss. ”Of course, senor.” She thanked Leon for teaching her a bit of Spanish.

He seemed like he was a bit uneasy about speaking a little bit different language and with an accent. Well, she was used to Austral men and their accents so she was used to it. She mentioned him to follow her, getting ready to explain important places. ”What would you like to see?”
