LILLIANE
The request was unexpected, leaving Lilliane silent for a second, taking in the situation. But then she nodded. "Yes, I'm Lilliane. I'm pleased to meet you." With a glance at the paper that Maea had waved around, Lilliane stepped aside. "It seems like this might be a longer conversation. How about we sit down inside?"
Inside, Lilliane led Maea to the dining table, gesturing for her to sit down. "Would you like something to drink?" she asked, almost like second nature. "Oh, but you don't have to feel like you have to in order to be polite. I know many people here don't need any." One hand on the backrest of the chair opposite Maea, she waited, ready to get something to drink from the kitchen or sit down to talk.
