As Mary sipped her wine Arnim realized she had slightly pointed ears. She tried to hide them beneath her brown hair. However, her rush to grab her drink had revealed them for a moment. She must be older than she looked because of her mixed heritage. This inspired him to say something else positive for her sake. "You know miss Scald to be different isn't a bad thing. Look at me I'm bellow average height for my people. This hasn't stopped me in anyway from being a skilled warrior. Your ears are as attractive as the rest of you. So take heart in being yourself."
The student blushed even redder as this handsome man called her pretty. He even complimented her cursed ears. "Th tha thanks sir, I've never had anyone call my ears attractive before. If you like I can share one of my works with you?"
"I would be honored to hear it good bard to be." The fae paladin smiled since his encouragement landed true.
"I must speak quietly since this story hasn't received Fellsguard's approval." She smiled winningly at the kind man and opened her book. Once she got to the page she had in mind she whispered to Arnim her tale. Though she felt a little self concious since she was so close to him. It must have looked like a lovers tryst to others.
"Long ago in a previous age brightly colored birds traveled the skies. Each creatures plumage was unque. One day the great spirit of nature Ixaziel observed these proud sky dancers. It decided such grace and joy should be brought to Khy'eras, so others may share in their beauty. The bringer of life soon realized it's mistakes in the frail humanoids. So it returned their wings of rainbow hughes and delighted in its new fae race. Now they could inspire others with their combination of strength and weakness." Mary finished her short tale and closed her book. "What do you think sir Arnim?"
The paladin's wings fluttered happily showing his joy before he even spoke. "Absolutely wonderful miss Scald, you are truly gifted. I look foward to hearing more of your delightful stories. You have a bright future ahead of you." He reluctantly moved on to the main reason he sat at her table to begin with. "I'm sorry if this seems foward of me, but could you tell me what you know of Arn Farwon?"
The student blushed even redder as this handsome man called her pretty. He even complimented her cursed ears. "Th tha thanks sir, I've never had anyone call my ears attractive before. If you like I can share one of my works with you?"
