"Your eyes wander." Tiavanesti stated to the sorceress with a calm smile. "They have many a time." After taking a bite of her own fruit, she extended her free hand to present her markings to Tea . "Do you recognize any of these patterns?" Her smile was touched with mirth, "They were originally the same color as mine eyes. But in my travels, I met a most curious tattoo artist." She looked over at Azdela, "She was taller than yourself, and a gladiator...as well a woman of orc and human birth."<br/><br/>Her gentle gaze fell back onto Tea. "She added more patterns -like these on my neck- and traced them all with a brilliant white dye. I didn't really believe in the idea at first, but after we'd adventured together for some time, I trusted her enough to try it. The results truly surprised me. So many think those descended from orc-and-other unions to be savages. I'll even admit to believing it too, having spent many of my early years amongst my elven kin. Sometimes, it's wonderful to be wrong, wouldn't you agree?"<br/><br/>They had to agree. She sensed things about the pair she traveled with... And while she could not pin them down just yet, she knew that they were more than they appeared. Instead of making her wary of them however, it only made her more and more curious over time. She wondered if she would find answers before they reached their goal.<br/><br/>She almost laughed at herself when Adzela declined the fruit. Of course she did as she always had. "I know I say this all the time... But you're missing out, dear warrior." A mischievous grin touched her lips. "One day, when you're asleep, you're going to taste something delicious and finally understand."<br/><br/>Once she was finished with her own fruit, she cast a quick water orison to clean her hands, then offered the same to the others before she turned to move onward. Though they not see her face, there was a very tiny hint of disappointment in her voice when she spoke. "We're but four days away now... It's gone by quickly, hasn't it? Just like I said it would, of course...still. I've enjoyed the trip for what it's worth. Part of me doesn't want it to end."<br/><br/>The sadness in her expression was quickly banished away when she turned to face the pair again. "What will you be doing once we've made our exit from Arthfell?"
