For once, Alae felt like she could relate more to an older individual in these lands. Ever since her arrival in 'Souls and in Dahlia de Mai, Alae had been the oldest Luperci out of everyone she met thus far (and was currently the oldest in Dahlia de Mai). Not to say Saluce was anything but elder (for he was handsome and chiseled in his own regards), it felt refreshing to talk to someone who was on a more mature level than she. It was interesting when Saluce explained how Nayru actually learned much of her tact by Saluce himself. Admiring Nayru for her strength as Alpha Female, the Side could definitely see now where she gout her toughness from. It was also a mild surprise to know Saul once went for the arts of blacksmithing, but it seemed like it was more in the boy to do something that was a little less masculine of him. "No wonder Nayru is as strong as she appears, you've taught her well. Are there any essentials you could perhaps teach me sometime?" Alae questioned to Saluce. While it was more in her nature to be a lover than a fighter, she could always use some skills to brush upon when the time calls for it.
Yoga and aromatherapy were nothing like blacksmithing and warrior tactics, if anything, were the complete feminine opposite. Yoga did have something in common with tact as far as keeping a strong mental state, though. Alae shrugged her shoulders lightly. "Yoga is a traditional physical, mental, and spiritual discipline. It's mainly something to attain a state of perfect spiritual insight and tranquility. It has nothing to do with religion or gods to get this spiritual tranquility, but it helps fine tune the mind, body, and spirit to be limber and sharp through stretching poses and breathing exercises." Alae explained, pausing briefly before explaining aromatherapy. "Aromatherapy is alternative medicine to alter your mind, whether its function or health, by extracting the essential oils from plants and then burning them to obtain the chemicals of the aroma." Alae then said, nodding her head after her words felt silent. Yoga was more liked by her than aromatherapy, but each had their benefits, and was happy to share more if Saluce took a further interest to them.
