The Heartwood Similar vows

Heph appeared to be very pragmatic about her potential mateship with Phox. All the character traits she listed were good qualities to have in any person. Even Dwin could not find any point to disagree with, but still something was missing. As if she was looking at a fine painting, but it lacked the "wow" factor in it. That magic, which would make it stand out among others. Ironically, with all her contempt for the opposite sex, she knew she could not settle for a man just because he was good in all the ways it counted. If there was no spark, what was the point?

"What are the traits in him that annoy you?" Dwin asked, because - surely - you could not judge the person by its hat only. You had to undress them, open their mouth to check their teeth and interrogate throughly. Plus, do some behaviour testing and carefuly observation and analysis in the wilds. That's, what she would do, if she had the opportunity.
