Vale had quite the tale to tell her, and she listened with open interest, ears trained on her brother's voice while her eyes scoured their surroundings. She caught some scent, something... strange, but familiar. Confused, she almost missed her brother's question, and she said, Oh, uh... Asara and I went hunting with Noir. And mom's been tense. I can see it in her eyes, you know? But she hasn't said anything, and I... don't want to ask. She frowned, shrugging. Then, she refocused on the scent.

You smell that? Do you know what it is?
