His curious reaction made her shake her head. "Well, maybe tradition was the wrong word for it... The Fae say that you can see fortunes in some of them, right? I was hoping I might see... how some things might pan out." Her gaze flickered away, touching on the structure he had built, the fey light of the wisp... Maea shrugged when Jigano declined the offer for shelter, and she decreased the span of the shield until it hovered only over Shii, who seemed inordinately pleased with the attention. She wasn't bothered by the wet either, and certainly wasn't cold.
"This... is your idea of a puddle?" she asked him, some amusement glinting in her eyes as she took in the 'birdbath' again. It was very elegant, very befitting of her usually so well groomed friend... but Maea wouldn't call it a puddle. "Did you see anything worth noting?"
His attention had strayed to her bratty follower however, and she nodded, shifting her weight between the legs. "Yes... Ludo tasked me with removing a Cat Sith from its Woods recently. When it was done, the will-o-wisp's seemed quite grateful. Apparently it had bothered them quite a lot... This one - " she pointed at Shii " - decided that I'm some kind of hero now, and apparently I need looking after." She made a face, clearly not agreeing with the sentiment.
"Mostly that consists of terrorising everyone I try to talk to... It wanted to lead Sunjata off a cliff for teasing me." She said it quite calmly, like it was somehow faintly amusing.
Maea
this too shall pass
