Aislinn nodded at Tannin as he finished talking. Even though he seemed to be telling her his story as if he wanted assistance, he didn't accept her offer. Aislinn thought this was strange, but she had little time to question it further as a noise came from behind Tannin. Her ears pricked up and she stood up, instantly lowering her head as she moved forwards and peered out around Tannin towards the noise. She found the feline, it's black coat standing out from the calmer colours surrounding the pool and it's appearance took her aback. She had seen felines before, but they were much bigger than this one; large lynxs from the mountains and even the odd snow leopard seen fleetingly from a distance. She judged this cat by it's size and lowered her defence as Tannin did and decided to speak, "You're certainly smaller than any feline I've seen before."
