Nahai's eyebrows raised. A small smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.
"Pleased to meet you, Luin." She said with slight amusement. "It seems as though we all have a few secrets we are keeping from each other." Herself included.
Nahai had a nagging suspicion that her face had given away some strange emotion when Elhor spoke, as everyone was throwing her questioning glances. They probably trusted her even less, not that she blamed them. Maybe she should tell them...
"I'm not quite as I seem, either," she began slowly. How to approach this..? Biting her lip, she lost her courage and stopped talking. She was making a fool of herself. She didn't want to lose her new friends, but she didn't like keeping secrets from them. Feeling their eyes boring into her, she averted her gaze and was silent. Now I've gone and done it... she thought.
"But it's of no real importance." she finished. It sounded stupid, but it was easier to say than "Hi there, I'm a shape shifter and I can become a bear at will. Wanna be friends?" Instead she turned her attention back to Elhor, who was still in his trance.
