The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "Starshine's touch upon you, Avaris."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "I admit to that
making me check for the giggling presence of a certain young Lady acquaintance of ours. Light's 
blessings upon you, Falaine."

The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "A most delightful young lady indeed,
though not currently present, alas. The evening finds me well- busy, working with my hands. It feels 
good to do so."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "She is very much
that. I will admit to no small degree of fondness for her. She is watching, I am sure, or sleeping 
up in her home. Indeed, I imagine it does. What occupies them currently?"

The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "I, too, am very fond of her. Perhaps more
protective than I should be, even. Hm? Oh, I am building furniture to sell in my shop."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "I do not think
that one can be too protective of the innocent, Falaine. Most especially when others are so willing 
to expose her to unsavoury elements. [A ringing note of surprise.] Oh? I was not aware that you 
owned a shop at all. How recent of an endeavour is that?"

The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "That tainted kephera... he sent a letter
to Vaevaya."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "[A gradual
condensing of focus, the pleasant, ambient warmth and light cooling, contracting into a cold, flat 
blade of intense displeasure.] I told Gurashi not to tell him. I ~told~ them. What did it say? She 
cannot read, I believe."

The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "[her own displeasure is as a shield,
embossed with the echoes of anger] She gave it to me to read, asking what a Magnagora was. I told 
her it was... [a palpable composing of emotions] .. a bad place. Though not all people are wholly 
bad, there, it is not a good place with good people. As for the letter, it was mostly nonsense. 
Specifically, it is a list of things that a child would not know or understand except perhaps in 
periphery. Astrological technical ones. Except for the last question. [as if the flame of righteous 
fury within the shield has kindled, it becomes white hot]."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "[Undisguised
disgust, dripping from the frigidly luminous blade like ice water.] That does not surprise me. It 
seems few realise that she is a child in truth, simply because of the nature of her existence, and 
her mastery of speech. What was the last question?"
The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "[incongruously, the white-hot anger is
suddenly tempered with icy chill, leaving behind a cold expanse of impenetrable fortitude of 
protective resolve] If he could meet."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "[The blade
abruptly splits into four, fanning out into a terrible star that radiates distant menace as much as 
it does cold light. His voice reflects this, chill as frozen steel.] Absolutely not. I will not 
allow it. Have any sought to permit this idiocy to proceed?"

The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "[her voice is calm, steely in its
confidence] Nor would I, Avaris. And.. I've told none other than you of the request. Especially 
since young Vaevaya herself stated that she did not wish to do so."

The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "[with absolute firmness, unshakeable as
the mountains] She will not be exposed to the taint. Ever."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "Good. We are to
keep this between ourselves. I will have words with Gurashi about this, lest they invite others to 
disturb young Lady Vaevaya. [The almost glass-like surface of the stars resonates like lightly 
struck metal, a clear, sharp note that shivers on and on.] She will not. We must be the ones to ward 
her from it, and from the childish foolishness of the other citizens. We shall have to see if we can 
coax Lady Vaevaya down for a serious talk, to prepare her for matters she should be wary of."

The bright, bell-like voice of Falaine rings in your ear, "[something like a sigh] We... touched on
the topic. But the world is not all wonders and joy, and if she is to learn of it, she must learn of 
something of its darkness. I only hope for her to learn of them in a way that does not dim her own 
brightness."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "It is regretful,
but even stars must grow up, in time. It will not dull her shine, I think, but merely alter its hue. 
She will grow Wiser, and be better prepared to look after herself, when we are not present. All 
things must mature. We will be as tactful as we can, but we cannot shelter her from too much."

Harmony echoes in your mind as you sing to Slakened Falaine, Novitiate of Purity, "It will likely be
best that you do most of the talking, but I shall contribute what I can."
