AINO
Shooting Sah a look of solid disbelief, Aino didn't even stop her puttering about. Dishes were gathered, pots and pans stacked into neater piles and there was a slamming of buckets and a rush of water as the sink was filled - all with an efficiency that spoke of distaste.
"You're a wolf? Really. Then why aren't you shifting and making a mess like all the other Attuned?" she smirked, as if this was proof enough why his statement was a lie. Everyone knew that them Outlanders came in as the closest thing to what they had been in the past. And Sah had already told her of his magic.
"You won't convince her, youngling, so don't even bother," Ilma told him dryly. "Now sit down before I break my neck." Padding the edge of her couch, the woman scooted aside as best she could to make room, grumbling about men and their penchant for towering. She moved with visible effort, legs dragging lifeless after her - but she seemed not to care whether Sah was bothered by it or not.
"So you met the witch, did you. Found a pup too; that is good. Is that all you found, Sah?" There was a twinkle in the aged woman's eyes as she gazed up at him, deep with age and understanding.

Come and conquer, drop your bombs
Cross my borders and kill the calm
