"Umm..." Wraen did not have a ready answer to this, because the way Fennec had worded her question sounded a lot like "lying". She and her narrator as well had met people, who did not like fiction, stating that there was no reason, why they should take any interest in events that were not true. While she had felt offended, when younger, when she had thought more about the statement later, she had come to a conclusion that they were right in a way. A story that had a grain of truth in it, and if that grain hit a personal string in one's soul, it was more valuable than the colourful castles in the sky built by imagination. The thing was that not all dreams of people were the same, but they could come to an agreement, when the matters touched deeply moral and ethical subjects. 

"I try to find out, what my audience enjoys first," she took the diplomatic road first. "And then I find a story that would fit them best," she added. "It is not so much about making it "real" - stories rarely are - but telling in such a way that the one, who listens, find something to relate to," here she faltered, finding her grand idea about story-telling more difficult to express in simple terms than she had imagined. "Or sometimes the purpose of the story is to help people escape the reality," she added, thinking about those tales about wild-chases, life and death battles, crazy romances, anything that would keep a person so involved in the book that they would stay up all night just to read it through. "What kind of stories have you come up with?" she looked at Fennec, a hint of "try-me"-challenge in her voice.
