"There are some her age, but they are like the older woman - serious-minded." He shrugged again. "There is nothing to dislike about Tala - she is a wonderful girl. But I think her attitude and..lack of self control.. is unsettling to some." He kissed her again, smiling softly. "I think you may have a good idea what I mean?"<br/><br/>He watched her with a soft smile as she spoke of being quieter, nuzzling his lips to hers. Then he leaned back, stretching his back. He'd been sitting most of the day. "Father wished to see me, to discuss you..how you are adapting to your knew life with the Jaega. And with me."<br/><br/>He said that last part in an almost questioning way, as if asking her to tell him how she felt she was adapting. He'd told the chief she seemed happier..he was hoping he hadn't spoken wrongly.
