[/html]In truth, it was not safe to expose the orchard. It had been a place Anu had stumbled upon, and not very distinct to a passer by. Hiding was their best defense. Though Oak did not sense an impending threat from Lilin it was simply best to keep the secrets that would keep them safe.
He was glad that the interest had been focused onto the female and her family, something that she seemed fine with sharing. Explaining her family ties came easily for her, and he was curious to know where those friendly fellows came into play. But they were not her brothers, yet cousins. Such distant family was odd for Oak as he had none, but he was familiar with those not sharing any blood at all becoming family and so the uniqueness lasted only a moment.

It seemed to all be knit together, the Stormbringers and the God of storms… made of an oak tree? He thought with great interest. They were sturdy trees, their wood stronger then others…
Sounds very interesting. He was intrigued, and wanted to know more about the Thor she spoke of. He had a hammer? Oak wondered why he chose that rather then something with more of a blade. Like the axe… Though, Thor does not seem like a peaceful god. he commented, looking for more understanding.
