oblivion is the name of this abode: and she is there
Oh Flora most certainly is having a taste of her own medicine, but Anju merely winks - something surprisingly smooth for a rather rigid woman - and chuckles slightly. "Precisely. Such is the benefit of being underestimated - or in this case, overestimated." She taps her fingers against Flora's soft skin. "I worked my way from where you are to where I stand. That is how I know you can do it too." A woman of preternaturally strong faith, that belief is now aimed firmly at Flora.
"Your concern over your own naivety is precisely why I think you are not." It implies far too much introspection; likely caused by the part she feels she played in her twin's death. "The only real solution to your fears is growing stronger and wiser. That is precisely why I want to train you." Her relief is apparent, and to see Flora so vulnerable makes something quite protective take root in Anju's heart.
"I will treat you fairly, but I have high expectations. It will not be easy. But I think you are up for the challenge." Trying to get a less shaky smile back on that pretty face, Anju smirks. "Besides, I am clearly not known for my stealth or deception. I will need the refresher."
