Elrayne nodded as she listened and then bit her lip.<span style="color: #b30059">"i have missed a great deal living in the woods all alone... the world moves on and changes."</span>she kept her eyes respectfully off of Tyrande and frowned deeply.<span style="color: #b30059">"Harpies? seriously? those filthy monsters are being accepted now... what's next a Naga? anyway, i best be off, i wouldn't want to um... surprise Tyrande when her ritual, whatever she is doing is complete. i would hate to upset her work."</span><br/><br/>Kitori shook her head and pursed her lips.<span style="color: #330066"> "no, i use my powers very sparingly because it rouses aunty when i tap into them and the exhaustion of silencing her again outweighs whatever benefit i might be seeking with my powers. i can teleport but i generally don't. any teleport wakes aunty up the same amount so i have to spend three days meditating to silence her again so unless i go at least a hundred miles it really doesn't help, i just spend the time meditating instead of walking and i like the scenery of traveling by foot. i appreciate the offer but this money, thank you by the way, should set me up quite nicely in Thunder Bluff and i can use the inn kitchen while i seek a home."</span>she chuckled quietly and looked at him.<span style="color: #330066">"i was taught to be humble but i have been accused of selling my soul to attain forbidden knowledge in the kitchen... and i have turned down three marriage proposals from guests who tasted my food." </span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
