Lion Head Mesa the tower

Fellahin was a title, not a name, and Eljay felt his cheeks heat up at his mistake. He nodded as she introduced herself as Belen and said, Oh, well, uh, nice to meet you then, Belen. He smiled uneasily, clearly a little out of his waters here, though he appreciated her friendly smile. Diplomacy wasn't exactly Eljay's strong suit.

Teya had done well in her diplomacy, he thought to himself as they set off into the depths of Akashingo and Belen said that anyone from their pack was a friend to Akashingo. Eljay smiled at the notion. He wondered what kind of wolf this Pharaoh was. As he thought about it, Eljay didn't really know what the purpose of the fellahin was. Maybe it was just a rank, though the word 'purpose' was a little funny to him if that was the case.

Eljay's thoughts were distracted when she asked him if he was a messenger or leader. He blinked, looking a little surprised at the question somehow. Then he said, Oh, I'm one of Brecheliant's leaders — I lead the pack alongside Teya. He smiled at Belen, though clearly he wasn't very used to throwing that around. He'd only become leader because Teya had asked it of him, and he didn't feel as capable as she was at leading. Diplomacy was definitely more her thing than his. In fact, this was the first time Eljay had ever done any of it outside of his own home.
