To the point of finding herself in trouble. It was hard on her trying to learn different. Perfect white teeth worried at her lower lip as she reguarded him quietly. There was a moments hesitation before she spoke again.* If you would be so kind as to permit it, I would rather sit and drink tea with you. Perhaps for a few moments pretend life is different for me. *She braved a half smile.* I chose this. I wanted to help others. *Her eyes went distant as she spoke.* I have already done much towards that end. I just...no one told me it would be like this. That everyone who was 'not' Aes Sedai would forever look at me as you just did. *Her gaze oriented on him once more.* Tell me, what would you choose for yourself? To help others and be ostracized or not to help and be like those without such a gift? *She was a simple girl from a village much like his. With a big heart and the desire to help her fellow man. But it came with a price. One that hurt.*
