Gizelle

“Where is he?”
“Who?”
“Aiden.”
“Oh, he was called into a meeting with the elder. He asked me to bring you your food.”
“What is your name?”
“Gizelle, and don’t bother with yours. Everyone knows your name.” said Gizelle as she started to look around the room as Kamaria did just minutes earlier. After a few minutes, her stare came back to Kamaria who noticed her eyes which were the same vibrant violet color as Aedin.

Kamaria finished the jug silently feeling a bit awkward as Gizelle kept staring at her. Even when she was done, and feeling quite full, Gizelle continued to stare.

“Is there something on my face?”
“No.”
“Then why do you keep staring at me?”
“Because I can’t believe a Halfling like you was able to save our whole race.”
Kamaria noticed a slight change in her voice even though Gizelle’s face barely hinted to any emotion at all.
“So my blood worked?”
“Yes. So far, the ones we tried it on have already shown improvements in their health. And now I have to thank you.”
“For what?”
