Why hello there. A familiar scent had taken his attention away from the work at hand, and Dawali lifted his face slightly, eyes phasing out as he focused on his olfactory sense. Yes — this was someone familiar. Quickly putting his textiles aside, the Chief rose and dusted off various threads and feathers from himself before heading further into the village. With every step, Dawali worked to figure out whose scent it was. He detected Nayati there, but the other one.. was not so clear, though familiar. Only halfway did he realize that it was not just one, but two scents, and he understood now, when that piece of the puzzle was solved. She had left abruptly, and he had not quite understood, but the Aston femme seemed to be quite capable of running her own life, and so Dawali had not interfered. He had suspected a family issue, but if Auréle was back to stay, that was obviously not it. He pondered this awhile, until he could distinguish the trio's moving forms ahead, and he raised his hand in greeting. A proper greeting was offered them as soon as he was within conversation distance, and a friendly nod at Nayati, as well. "Welcome back," he said, glancing at the boy also present. Wondering for a split second where the other child was, Dawali figured that the pale figure would share her secrets if she so wished; she was entitled to privacy and it might be a sore subject. "Back to stay, or visiting the family?" Either way she was more than welcome here. Dawali always liked to see familiar faces. |
