With how fast they spoke, Kaleeth did not understand most of what Fendros said to Janius, but it still seemed like he was paying attention to her, so she proceeded to answer his question. "I earn them in...test. We choose a test that...that..." She began, becoming visibly frustrated that she could not find the words to adequately describe what she was trying to say. The tattoos and how she earned them had a deep meaning to her that she simply could not express with her limited vocabulary. "Sorry, I don't know words for it. The test shows a...a part of, uh, us. A part of us. Something good about us. My...vines show...they show..." Kaleeth stopped again to try and think of what she was saying. She wanted to describe how the thorny vines her tattoos depicted represented perseverance. She wanted to explain the analogy of how the resilient vines of the marsh thrived everywhere around them, no matter how harsh the conditions. No matter how many times they were cut down, they would inevitably return. It caused her no small amount of frustration that she could not give an explanation in Cyrodilic as eloquent as she could in Jel. "Tough...toughness. They show toughness. I can survive danger. My test had much danger. Hunters took me into marsh with no...bee-long-ings. No, spear, no clothes, no food. Just my...skills. I had to...not die, and find home again. I was away six nights. I got hurt, but I did not die. It was hard, but I am proud." One of the villagers helped Reanaseer to her feet before leaving. The Elder approached Meesei with one final matter before returning to her hut herself. [i]"It seems, at the very least, you have made our village less boring for the moment. As we mentioned before, you may stay in the common quarters. It is the largest hut, where all non-mated villagers, and guests, stay. You should be able to find a space large enough for your belongings. If I had to guess, I would say our Treeminder will be ready with the first trial in a few hours, but I would not expect more than one trial today. Now, I need to rest. May your scales be moistened by your stay here."[/i] [i]"Thank you."[/i] Meesei responded with an appreciative nod before Reanaseer left. She then motioned for any of the others not talking to one of the villagers to help her gather up their belongings to move to the common quarters.
