Unexpected Welcome

There was no surprise, on Islana's part, at the reception by the men. It was a protective measure to size up both women, and make sure they were alone. She had basically caught what had been asked and was about to respond when the older woman came out.

The older woman's response to Islana, was far more unexpected. Not that the woman was surprised by the red-hair and fair skin but that both penitents were then invited to the fire.

Islana caught what the woman said. The twins and their miracles, it was a miracle that Islana was still alive. A miracle that she and the Sk'elep had been able to defeat the Skara. A miracle that the young witch had been granted visions of her friends. The Twin Gods seemed to have a part in all of that, so, internally she agreed with the comment.

Islana took a seat near Madaya by the fire. Kaithak, who remained on the hunteress' shoulder, seemed to be content as he watched the activity of the caravan.

"Thank you," Islana said, in Ozanine to the grey haired woman.
