Skye saw in the woman Elaine's eyes that she loved to sing - her eyes sparkled with passion and happiness as she said those words. She nodded slowly - they only had one other singer, and that was Sky. She wasn't sure that Sky was very happy or up to singing, however, and it was good to maybe have someone that would be an inspiration to the girl and help her back on her feet again after the recent and terrible miscarriage. She smiled at the girl.
She was glad that she wanted to expand her knowledge - sometimes, people came here thinking they knew all they needed to know. There was always room to grow and learn, however, and Skye was determined to let other people know that. She still had books she didn't read, words she hadn't written, things she hadn't discovered. Other people also had those things in their life, and there was always room for expansion. She was glad to hear that she was willing to learn - more than willing. She wanted to learn. An appreciative gleam shone in Skye's eyes as she pondered the tawny girl.
She then chuckled softly as the girl frowned when she said she couldn't fight or read very well. "Don't worry," she said. "Here is a pack of artists, not fighters - we try to stay out of others' ways, and they stay out of ours. We're on good to neutral terms with all of the packs, so I don't think your troubles with fighting will be very unhelpful to the pack. If you want to learn how to read, however, I'll be glad to teach you," she said honestly. She did love to teach others to read, and had done it well in the past - she was sure that she'd be able to do it again.
She was sure that this girl was right for her pack - she was honest and young as well as eager to learn more about her talent and the world around her. And her hunting and singing skills didn't hurt, either. "Welcome to Cercatori d'Arte," she said warmly, giving the girl a smile to add to the tone.
