Melina gave a nod to her companion a bit as he commented regarding the condition of the books. Truth be told, she really was less concerned with their condition and more so with the knowledge they might hold. She picked up her head as she could hear the sound of some odd language being used. She glanced up as the a man came down glancing a bit surprised noticing his tusks and his green skin. While she did know various races being present in the world, she had never actually seen many of them.<strong>"Y...yes..."</strong>She spoke a bit pausing in her voice as she adjusted from her rather awkward thoughts over the man who came to the desk. She felt as if he was trying to piece through her with her gaze. The short yet rather shapely half elf looked at the man as she reached towards the pocket on her backpack grabbing the scroll. She unrolled it out before him before placing it down facing him.<strong>"I was curious if you had any knowledge or records of this symbol."</strong>She spoke rather plainly towards him as she smiled a little bit in response. Perhaps it was a bit of an awkward smile at that, but she wanted to try to show sincerity for a moment at least. As her mother said, a warm smile always gave answers... while it wasn't something she completely believed on her own, she did still to try to follow those guidelines.
