Although, she could not help but notice the male's reaction in comparison of sex. He seemed more inclined to help the woman while indifferent to the male's safety. She could not help but wonder if there was some type of special privileges within both of their cultures toward females. Still, she was not exactly sure why the man seemed so inclined on having the woman's presence a while longer, especially after her sharp choice of words with him. Maybe this was some odd mating ritual? It was at the tip of her tongue to ask further about the difference in duties within their culture. For example, did the males also weave baskets? Were there female warriors? Yet, something told her from the way the woman answered that she was at the tip of the ledge with her already lack of patience. So she decided to wait for another second or two before pestering her with more.<br/><br/><em>Elves are weird,</em>she thought quietly to herself.<br/><br/>She nearly wanted to choke Juno when he inquired about dragons then had the audacity to mention their kind to these elves. Didn't he realize exactly how unpredictable they were? It was better if they remained ignorant of exactly what they were and their being in existence. In that moment, the thought of silencing him came to mind. Yet, it would look odd on her behalf to take such great offense to what the others considered a mere myth. Instead, she forced an amused snort to come from her lips as if she could not believe the man's words.<br/><br/>Upon hearing their names, she nodded while placing the face to the already growing profile of them in her mind. She actually smiled when he gave her permission to peruse his materials as desired. Right when she was about to reach down to take a bite of the strange source of food, her hand stilled upon hearing Nilofer's comment about it. Due to being what she was, Safiya never tasted anything other than raw or nearly burnt meat. Burnt due to her not being able to regulate the force of magi.<br/><br/>The talk of food connected with the idea of killing so it was an easy enough transition for her mind. "<strong>It depends on your perspective,"</strong>she said with a nonchalant shrug of her shoulders.<strong>"Territory is just as important as food. Your kind's needs might not be as important in their eyes." </strong>She could understand the reason for Centos expansion since it was common enough in the wild. A creature expanded their territory for many reasons. Food. Better location. If something else was there, it would need to defend or die. One thing was for certain, if someone ever tried to take her kind's home, they would live to regret it for the rest of their short lives. The thought caused a wave of sadness to come back to the forefront of her mind. Her kind's land had been assaulted but there was little she could do about it.<br/><br/>Not yet at least.<br/><br/>She was about to make a comment when something seemed out of place. Before Safiya could even reaction, they were upon her. Her eyes narrowed, filling with distrust. Why had she been so stupid? All along they made it seem like it was the Centos to fear when in all reality they had been talking to make her lower her guard. She struggled against the hands holding her although it was not as easy to free herself with multiple soldiers upon her.<strong>"Unhand me! I surely hope this is not the way all travelers are treated! Damorta will know of this  treatment!"</strong>Her voice was loud and full of distress. Soon enough, she was silenced like Nilofer when a hand closed over her mouth. Never in her life had she felt such disrespect. It made her want to boil over. Her temper got the best of her, and she actually bit down into the poor man's palm.
