Mention of her earned a quick glance Furi's way before he began his slow nod. This had become his family too, and once, he had also been the outsider.

It would just take time. "Anything else?" he eyed her less harshly now, although left this pause hanging in case she needed it. If not, then it was soon time for her to learn about Drageda's lands firsthand.
