Umbria the elf was stirred by the thoughts of the dark woman in the corner sitting away from everyone. Umbria had her back to her. Umbria spun around and let her sharp gray eyes look deep into the recesses of the black hooded cloak.
"do not feel anger" she thought to herself "she doesnt know who you are and what you have been through... she likes being alone... not here to cause trouble I guess... on the run?..hmm.." she kept staring, for no one can hold her stare "I remember when I was like her" she thought..
Bebberyn noticed his leigelady staring at this stranger. He knew what this meant..Be wary. "this is the same look she had when my brothers were slain" he remembered. Bebberyn moved from behind Umbria to the middle of the hall, his hand on his sword hilt.
