Ravensblood Forest I Will Fall Asleep

No need to apologize, your posts are just fine. :D

The other did not smile or seem as pleased as Muirgen was to see another born from the waves, which she found odd. Perhaps she was not as excitable as the selkie could be at times, or maybe she was as uncertain of her as she'd been during each of her encounters with the males. They had all seemed like older giants to her, though, which made her worries within reason. Not wishing to offend the other girl, she did not question her behavior. After he run-in with Sebastian, she didn't want to ever offend anyone as he had done to her momentarily, as she wished to never be the one to cause such emotions to stir in another's form. Even as she spoke in a very thick accent, the seal did not ask for her to repeat anything, no matter how difficult some of the words might have been to understand correctly.

Her inquiry was one Muirgen actually appreciated. She assumed the other must care for the sea as she does after hearing such a question. "In order to travel away from home and to a new land, I was forced to leave the sea's side," she answered. It had been a tough decision to depart from home, but her parents had given her their blessing, as had others in her rookery, and she even believed Lir himself had wished for her to see more than the bay alone. The encouragement had lessened the sadness involved in the departure, but only by a fraction. She had left alone, and at such a young age, too, so she'd expected to feel some sorrow after the fact. Now, however, she was glad to have left, as it seemed she was meeting a protector of the sea, and heading in the direction of the ocean all in one day. It was a miracle, almost.
