With Kaleeth's words, Janius believed he understood. He wasn't clear whether the hunters as a group picked rights of passage for initiates, or if the initiates picked, but it was meant to prove the best in them as far as he could see. He raised his brow in minor surprise to hear that they would be staying in the same hut as Kaleeth. "It would seem that way, yes. Good, we can talk more, you might talk with the rest of us as well." Janius said with a smile, setting down his belongings in a vacant space on the floor, "Sorry in advance if Lorag snores."

Janius surmised that unless Kaleeth was a guest of the village as well, she was not mated. At least that would reduce the danger of their interaction being misconstrued by an as-yet unseen partner. Kaleeth-Rei didn't really seem like someone who would intentionally cause that in any case, but there was always the possibility of jealousies she didn't account for. "So, do you have family here in the village?" Janius asked slowly.

"Hmm, I mustn't have noticed," Fendros said to Ahnasha with an honest tone. "Well, in that case, I hope our welcome lasts as long as it needs to." The common hut was not much of a step up from sleeping out in the swamps, but it was still cosy. Fendros suspected that such shelters wouldn't be taken for granted in the rainier seasons. For now, there wasn't much to do but wait for Sabine's first trial.
