Lion Head Mesa got me with that feline guise

An interest? Tavina was so skilled to start with, and now she had the sanpin who she herself had brought to Akashingo, and Nazli thought it sensible that the woman might train the newcomer in all things herbal or to do with medicine; but if the need was there, the girl thought - why not?

I would like to be of use to everyone, of course. Nazli's answer was non-committal without meaning to be, and vague, which ran with the many thoughts brewing inside of her.

There doesn't seem to be a need for it, though. Tavina is skilled, and I've heard the lady Qiao is also very good with plants and things. I could help with the identification of some things but I don't know the uses of many, yet.

She wasn't meant to specialize. Fellahin were meant to do as they were told, oftentimes to perform their tasks without comment, so to be asked about any of her own desires felt almost taboo.

I like to -- run, and to hunt. It isn't often I get the chance to be outside of the palace, she was rambling a little bit now, musing aloud in a moment of weakness, relaxing beside Treva as if they were old friends. Not that I dislike being inside, or doing my daily duties! Her ears fanned different directions, realizing how that might've sounded.
