The pink haired storyteller smiled and hugged the matriarch.  "Well i know i am not to turn down gifts or refuse gestures of gratitude 'cause  in turn for your hospitality i am under your protection and you will risk a great deal to see me safe?  I think that is  what it is.  Besides, I owe Whisper and her entourage.  I feel like I even owe her people if that makes any sense."<br/><br/>Starfall blushes and buries her face in the matriarch's bosom hiding her embarrassment at such a intimate thought slipped  to a stranger."  I have not told her how I feel for her saving me and helping stem my fear at the situation we were in together.  So that is why I would like to learn her culture and be able to bring a piece of her home culture  with her wherever we may travel together.  Its the least I can do.  Cause I am not a brave warrior, I am just a naive storyteller trying to keep up in a world that is being seen by myself in a whole new light.<br/><br/>“I am sorry I am laying this all on you it's just I am not ready to just lay my heart out to Whispers and her brave crew and I just feel like I am going to burst holding it inside."<br/><br/>The vulnerable storyteller--trembling a bit--looks up at the matriarch and a lone tear rolls down her cheek out of happiness just being able to let her hearts secrets out.  "I am sorry Lorekeeper Ralda.  It just came out and I could not hold back anymore. Would you like me to teach you other songs before I learn yours?"  Starfall tries her best to put a smile on her face for her host and try and pull herself together as she lowers her head back down to the lorekeepers bosom as it helps her calm down.
