[Telluria and Winter]<br/><br/>Telluria nods carefully as Winter explains what the word 'Tourist' means... had Amber said something about it? But the elf's eyes truly light up when Winter mentions that she also attends the academy!<br/><br/>"We are fellow scholars! This is a most fortuitous meeting, indeed!" Telluria smiles at the realization. "what is your name, little one? I am afraid I have not met many other of our fellows since my arrival, as I encountered difficulties with my housing arrangements." Winter would have to be looking closely to spot the flicker of annoyance on the elf's face when she spoke of Difficulties, but Telluria is smiling at Winter in a friendly, unassuming manner. "I would not be averse to guidance, if you would accompany me."<br/><br/>00000000000000<br/><br/>[Avery and Amber]<br/><br/>The large creature takes another deep sniff, smile quirking slightly as she takes in his expression. "Not<span style="font-style: italic">bad</span>funny, just... different funny." Another toothy smile that is anything but reassuring, and crawls down off the building to stand in front of the boy, who is now quite alone as people have given the massive creature a wide berth...<br/><br/>Revealing that yes, she's about 14 feet tall, and that Avery is TINY compared to her.<br/><br/>"Never smelled aaaaanyone quite like you!" she continues cheerily, crouching down to get closer/loom over Avery. "But that's not a big deal, because there are LOTS of things I haven't smelled before... you smell tasty, so you don't need to worry about that!"<br/><br/>She extends a hand larger than his torso toward Avery. Apparently she's got sucker tipped fingers and webbed hands.<br/><br/>"My name's Ambereth, but you can call me Amber! What's your name?" She asks with a big (Teeth!<img alt="8-O" src="./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif" title="Shocked"/>) smile.
