<3 <3 <3 317.

Cherry eyes stayed glued to the slate ones and Nayru dipped her head at the girl’s reply. Although older the girl seemed uneasy, nervous even as she wrung her hands and shifted her weight. Ever calm Nayru took it all in, accepting it for what it was and turning out her own reply in time. "Yes, I have. That happens." It was friendly but not jesting, just matter of fact. Life went on and they aged and for a while they would grow until they could grow no more. The snowy child with ebony stains all over was still growing and although she stood perhaps equal to the ashen girl now she would be only a little bit taller when she was through, still a delicate fairy child but not freakishly so.


"My name is Nayru." And that was it, no other title was offered. At times Nayru would proudly tack Dahlia de Mai onto the introduction, but surely now it was only be redundant. Without a last name no one could trace her lineage, as she had come to realized many did with the more common names in these lands. This please Nayru in a way, for aside from the story she had given Conor, no one had ever asked about her life before and it was almost as if that life had never been. The fuzzy memories of her parents and sisters were private and personal, and though no one asked she didn't feel like talking about it any longer. Even if she wished for others to know her history with a simple introduction, Nayru didn’t have any such name to give them. And so Nayru was content with that and she bowed deeply to the girl, a superior in both age and rank, and looked back up, waiting patiently but not expectantly to see if the girl would offer her own name or not.
