KaelestiaHp: 8/8 - AC: 5 At first Kaelestia doesn't understand why Parra would hate her, but then she sees the minotaur looking at their hands. " From where I am from." - she explains. - " We do not value physical appearance that much." And why would they, after all one could just change their facade as will. " And even if we did, I would value those scars of yours highly. They are a testimony that you went through hardships but you prevailed, they show your strenght as an individual." " I was saddened by his loss as well." - Kaelestia says in a melancholic, lowering her eyes. - " I did not want that encounter to have that sort of conclusion, I truly did not. As for your question..." She pondered what to do, but in the end she prefered not to share too much, not yet. She feared that if she talked too much Parra would become too agitated to focus on their current mission. " My fate is deeply interwined with that of the High Ogres, that is true, and I can sense yours is too as well. And as I already told you, I am interested in finding more about their past, so I would have a better chance to shape their, and my, future."

Parra was in a hard spot in a way. She wanted to push and press- but Kaelestia was too respecting and in a way honest. Vague, yes. But honest.
Internly Parra groaned. It would be easier if Kaelestia were arrogant, or would try to gaslight Parra.
"Sound like... an intresting place. My crew, my family never stopped pointing at my looks. Barncaling superstitious idiots..." Parra pause. "Very... intresting. Maybe we should share our knowledge of their history. The gods probably wanted to have less as possible of books about them." she say. "For now, I won't press further, until you want to share more about this connection of your's. I..." She drink loudly a mug in a go. "Thank you. You got the brains and the looks, but you never looked down on me. I DONT care of course.. but.. it kind of nice to have someone like you to talk to, without an urge to strangle you. So... I'll respect you. We can discuss what ever you ready to discuss" But maybe.. if Parra would have found an anvle to manipulate Kaelestia from.. but not today.

"Hmm,I wonder indeed," Sumina says as she resists the urge to choke the kender. She returns the items to Mei-Ling. "I'm taking Twill outside before anything else goes missing," she says to the others. "When you are ready, meet me out there." With that said, she nearly drags Twill outside.

KaelestiaHp: 8/8 - AC: 5 " Who knows, maybe one day you will be able to visit it." - she said with a coy smile. Kaelestia didn't really believe Parra didn't care about not being looked down, but she didn't intend to burst her bubble, and she was thankful the minotaur didn't press on the topic. The truth was it was nice talking with her, she felt she could vent about the unfair treatment that her kind received from the Gods. But the Irda was afraid of letting something out that she wasn't yet sure she actually wanted to share. Kaelestia stood up to follow Sumina: " I look forward to it. I actually must have underestimated your knowledge on the topic, in fact I did not expect you to be able to read Kolshet, as you probably did not expect me to be able to actually speak it."

Parra nod. "The Ur Ogres gave my life meaning. And yes, I didnt expected you to speak Kolshet. I am... happy to know you. We shall share our knowledge and bring light to their secrets." Parra allow herself to smile. For a moment.

After returning the stuff Twill borrowed, Sumina rejoins the others. They then head southward toward the mountains.
