Both of Navia's hands took Théadan, giving him a small squeeze, the excitement of being at this spa clear on her features, and in her demeanour, it was infectious, and Navia had him grinning as she pressed a kiss to his cheek while they ascended the stairs, deciding they should seek a room first, then perhaps the spring. It was a suggestion that had him nodding his agreement as they entered into the foyer of the spa which did not lack for grandeur with its elegant forking staircase, and the tall ceiling. A bright white seemed to be the Khluri preference when decorating, maybe for its purity, or perhaps some other reason? They did so often seem to make decisions based on aesthetics or beliefs, rather than the practical, it seemed to Théadan there was likely meaning behind the colours they chose to decorate in too. Even the tall woman who strode confidently yet gracefully towards them, wore white in stark contrast to her bronze skin.<br/><br/>She offered them both a greeting, though Théadan saw how her eyes lingered on him a beat longer without comment. But then curiously, after offering her name and title, her introduction lost its way as she clearly scrutinised Navia. It probably shouldn't have come as a surprise, but it appeared this woman, Baiza, knew Navia's mother, which she promptly confirmed. Niemah. The name of Navia's mother, it occurred to Théadan that this was the first time he had heard it, and with it, he realised he did not yet know her father's name either. There was still much to learn, even the basics weren't fully covered yet, but the new questions that formed in Théadan's mind had to wait, Baiza was pulling Navia into a tight hug, and for the first time he had the pleasure of seeing someone realise who Navia was, and react joyously to her return.<br/><br/>Talk of Navia being captured had Théadan briefly looking away shamefully, though the word she used to describe Mes'Mo'Tanians, '<i>Avezanas</i>' certainly drew his attention, it was one he would have to look up later for sure. He continued to say nothing however, wanting to let Navia enjoy the moment, simply offering a smile and a nod when Navia explained his presence with her at this spa, while conveniently leaving out how they met in the first place. But then the eyes of Baiza was upon him, she studied him with an intensity of someone weighing up his worthiness to be in Navia's presence. She had been friends with her mother, and clearly had inherent fondness for Navia through that connection, she was sure to have question for him.<br/><br/>Baiza courteously offered a hand, greeting Théadan into the spa as well, she was polite, not as warm with her reception as she had been with Navia, but that was to be expected. "Thank you for your welcome." Théadan replied, offering her a smile, while taking her hand giving it a shake, and holding her gaze. He did not want to balk and look away, or give her any reason to believe he had any other but good motives for being with her friends daughter, whose hand he was still holding. "We only returned to Khlurios just yesterday by ship, but Khlurios has been kind to me so far, we have not with any real trouble." There had been the incident at the tavern, but that had not escalated into anything more than a few idle threats. In Théadan's mind it was not worth mentioning, and certainly not worth troubling Baiza with.<br/><br/>"This was the first place Navia wished to bring me too." They had detoured, but that was with the intent to deliver the necklace Navia wore, this was certainly first on the list of places Navia had wanted to show off to him now they were in Khlurios. "She holds this spa in high regard, only having positive things to say about it." Baiza had mentioned Navia had last been here when she was a child though, which drew Théadan to the conclusion, "It must have left quite the impression from when she was a child." He offered another smile, and allowed his eyes to look around the architecture of the place, trying to take it all in, and wonder which doors and hallways led where. "With all her talk of it, she has given me high expectations for the spring and the beach in particular." His hand gave Navia's a small squeeze before his gaze settled back on Baiza. "But right now we're hoping to see about a room."
