Be the spotlight on the lonley stage

Osprey's expression softened, when it turned out that this was his first relationship. She had had her fair share of affairs in her early youth, but it had never got anywhere further than friendly-teasing and cuddling. Being so occupied with her desire to become an excellent story-teller, she had never sought a serious relationship, fearing that it would cut her wings and make her settle down, when she would better fly high, far and away. Things were a little different now that she was older - her fourth year of life was about to close and the fifth was approaching. She was getting older and there was a small part of her that wished to be just like everyone else - have a mate and couple of children.

Therefore, while she didn't fancy Koda particularly, she envied Kesuk a bit, for having a faithful and caring husband. Apart from her brother, who lived quite a distance away, there was no one else, who would care for her in that kind of way. "Why don't you go with her now and then? I mean - having adventures alone is one thing, but it's very different, if you can share your experience with someone else," she offered. It seemed like a good idea. "I mean, the more time you spend together, the more you get to know each other. The easier it will be find compromises that suit you both," she went on, thinking about the irony here. She was giving relationship advice, while having none of that kind of experience herself.
