Subject: Hesitant

A lanky young girl peers into the glade, approaching with confidence and mixed grace born of training and her head held high. She waves and smiles at the 'Mates and young Plenyt present in the clearing, her dark eyes radiant. "Hullo, there everyone! My name is Niira. And this is..." She peers over her shoulder, expecting to see Shak there. When she doesn't see him, she does a double take and blinks. "Shak? Shak, where are you?" A figure in a dark brown cloak seems to glide forward, his shoulder length hair a rather mundane black, seeming to draw attention to his vivid eyes. He smiles and encompasses a wave toward all as well, his greeting soft, but equally confident.

"My greetings to you all. I am the ward of the former princess Niira. My name is Shak."

"Your litter is a beautiful one, Lady." Niira speaks to Cariad as though adressing a diplomat guest, bowing prettily and dipping her head. She convieniently ignores the comment about Shak's relation to her, trying not to let it get to her in the least. Shak, if you know what's good for you, you'll stop with this silly ward business. She says inwardly with a strange clench to her tone. "Perhaps I may stay in their company?" Speaking aloud, her voice is genuine and carries none of the irritation that seethes somewhat on the inside.

"I'd like to stay as well, your children are quite compelling." Shak adds truthfully, his smile a calm and not overdone affair. "I'm afraid I have no gift to give them but hope that you and they will accept me anyway. Being a refugee kind of leaves you that way." He adds wryly with a tint of humor.

"I am the same, nothing but my company to offer, and my presence." Niira adds, unfurling her hand in her customary gesture of nervousness when under scrutiny.
