Lilliane wasn't quite sure whether she was glad or not to talk about things from her world. It was familiar, yes. But also reminded her of what was gone. Still, she decided that it would probably be a good thing. "A journalist is someone who researches things and writes them down so they can be publicized in a newspaper." Though, if there were no journalists, there probably weren't newspapers here either. "And a newspaper is basically something that's a few pages of paper filled with articles from one or more journalists. It's different from a book because while books are written to be read for a long time, newspapers usually have current events and new revelations in them. So they are out of date quickly. It's a way for people to quickly catch up with the things that are going on in the area. But more reliable than gossip." Or at least, it should be.
When the questions turned towards her home, Lilliane shrugged. How was she to explain a whole world without starting a big monologue? "Busy. And sometimes, I felt that it was unfair. People having no chance in their future simply because of where or into which family they were born." She shrugged again. "It's kind of difficult to explain the whole world I'm from. Most places I've never even seen myself. But the city I'm from was always busy, many people out and about, though mostly minding their own business. There were also a lot of... unspoken rules would be the right description, I guess. Ways in which to behave to fit in with the rest. But it was also vibrant, a place where many cultures met and a lot of tourists came every year." She thought for a moment before nodding to herself. While it wasn't the most accurate description, she felt that it was the one most true to her.
Looking from Lena to the hels and back, Lilliane smiled. "You seem to really like your job." She paused for a moment to look at the hels again, who still sat and ate, the pastry bits getting less and less. "So you're helping them get back into shape until they can return to nature? Or is it more of a place where they can stay all the time if they want to?"
