she saw his discomfort and wondered about his customs. he did not hold the tongue of her land, so perhaps the bow was seen as a strange way to greet someone. iseul would stew on this concept later, however.
the words come and she does her best to pick out what she can understand. she hears words she had never heard before, but thankfully it was just the names of the husband and his wife who lived here. the rules seem simple, and she was a bit surprised to hear the term 'equal' be used to refer to one another. traditionally, iseul was used to her parents having the last say in her family. the sense of independence yet still remaining in a group surely interested her.
she nods to him. "can hunt, can fight for ulrich." this she would assure him, as it sounded to be the most important aspect of being accepted here. as much as she would never admit it, iseul was a bit of a bully when younger and tossed her sister around a bit due to being bigger. and beyond the few scruffles she got into as an adolescent, she liked to think she was going to be able to handle herself here.
thankfully, his name was at least a little easier on the tongue than others she has heard before.

Iseul is still learning English and will frequently pause to find the right word. This often occurs with an audible 'uh' or 'ah' sound, as well as speaking a bit slower to try and avoid mistakes. Your character is welcome to notice this!
