He watched her playing with the bird and was shocked as she started to fall.  He sprang to his feet and dropped to the forest floor, rolling to absorb the impact as he did so.  He saw the branch she was grasping onto bend.  Whispering the words to dispel his cloaks magic he jerked his hood back and caught her as she fell.  "I hear the trees are an unsafe playground after a certain age." easily speaking as he caught her.  Then he found himself starring into her eyes.  His grey orbs locked onto hers.  They were so...blue.  He felt as though she could see right through his act, but tried not to let it show.  Kalys still held her awkwardly in his arms and then his cheeks colored as he sat her down.  "Are you unhurt?" he said silently.<em>You should have let her fall you fool!</em>he silently berated himself.
