In the past, Isabella had an easy time of reading people, especially those who made no effort to hide their emotions. She thought herself an adapt reader or such things, considering her trade and the necessity of knowing what a client wanted. But with women, and openly emotional women, it was the simplest thing in the world. As the stranger tucked her tail in, it was as though she had written the gypsy woman a page on what she felt, who naturally assumed her initial opinion correct, no matter how untrue it really was.
Kaoru looked at the woman with his bright blue eyes, tail swishing behind him as he shifted his complacent gaze to his mounted mistress. Isabella looked down at him, then flicked her chin at the unnamed woman. Instantly, the white Akita moved fluidly to her side, taking her by the shoulders. "Help you, どこ行くの?" he asked her in his flowing language. He knew that few here spoke it, but it was far too easy to slip into his native tongue. Isabella understood him this time, remembering the word coming from her father's lips when she was young.
"Where is it you want to go?" she asked smoothly, voice like silk as she gave a reassuring smile. Isabella leaned forward in her saddle, blue-yellow eyes peering at the other female. If only she had some secret sleeping powder to lull this woman into a sleep to enslave her into the Thistle Kingdom's service. Such a lost lamb in a forest of vicious wolves - it was like passing by a freshly caught elk, blood still squirting from it's opened neck. "Perhaps we can help," she suggested, letting her sweetened tones echo off of her tongue like honeyed milk. There was no way to capture this creature, and Isabella hesitated at enslaving another woman, even one laid before her.
