<strong>Reliyian Isilivanthar – in Kelcis’ hut</strong><br/><br/>She watched as Kelcis clumsily tried to explain himself, pausing as she looked at him coldly to add when Aeryn was done, “I assure you, Kelcis, you have no reason to be concerned about aggression from us as long as it is not you or your kind who provoke it. If you further wish no disrespect from us, then show us no more from yourself. If your matriarchs trust you as you say, then I strongly advise you to recommend that they give us due favor. And assure that if it is done, we shall show veneration in kind. It matters little if our existence is tolerated or not, for we are here and whether or not our arrangement will be a peaceable one is up to you. If you desire harmony, you shall have it but do not mistake our willingness to strike an accord as weakness.”<br/><br/>Once alone Reliyian moves next to the relaxing Aeryn, “Foolish maybe. I am not good with politics or negotiation. He says he knows little else and strangely I think he might be telling the truth. However, there is something more here. I heard the distinct hum of the arcane, faint or muted but here. Likely somewhere out in the village. Their protection from whatever power Eshalu felt may not be so complete as he believes. Perhaps something is affording them that. They may have reason for friendship. I don’t know. I agree that attacking the matriarchs would accomplish little but trust in your tongue to remove us from the danger. Kelcis seems little more than a gatekeeper, perhaps the matriarchs will be more likely to listen.”<br/><br/>The corner of her mouth turns up into little smile, her voice a little timid like she was speaking to her strict taskmaster of the Tower for a favor he would not be so inclined to give, “Perhaps we should take this opportunity to explore the village?”<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Description and Picture(s)</div><div class="spoiler_body"><div class="floatright">(http://i986.photobucket.com/albums/ae348/Stef82K/Private/Reliyian/reliyian_dress_zps984739ed.jpg)</div>Description: Her hair is fine like silk, pale as the winter sun and highlighted with streaks of lavender dye made from crushed berries. Her eyes beautiful, pearlescent orbs of pale sage are set against her light skin that when the light strikes her has a feint golden glow dotted by freckles from her face to her shoulders.  She smiles, you think, the expression is too faint to be sure. Even her mouth seems to shimmer with a soft glossy pink. Her ears are long, ending in perfect points. Reliyian wears a blue strapless dress held up by her impressive figure and by crisscrossed silver thread across an open back, wide enough to reveal most of it in a V-shape to the slight curve at the base of her spine. Long detached sleeves ended in golden lace that was also embroidered throughout the dress. Her skirt ending just above her ankles below which you see her golden lace low heeled sandals, it has a slight up the left side exposing much of her supple leg to where you can just make out the curve of her hip.</div></div>
