With a brief and amused grin, Fendros put an arm over Ahnasha's shoulder in return. He would have bet that by this time in two weeks, Ahnasha would probably be back to outrunning everyone again. While they walked, Fendros looked to Janius and Kaleeth for a moment and he resumed looking slightly worried. He had been so distracted thinking about Ahnasha that he had forgotten about Kaleeth. It had to be tough to go through one's first full moon alone.

Janius curled his lips momentarily and he kept his eyes to the ground while they walked, mirroring her demeanour. It was in knowing guilt rather than fear. "Unfortunately...during full moons, it will always be somewhat beyond your control. The best any of us can do at such times is stay away from other people and try to predict what our beast spirits are going to do." He raised his head and turned his tone to be more encouraging, "For other times, though, it will get better. As it happens, apart from your first transformation, last night was probably the worst that it will ever be for you."

It was normal for Kaleeth to be left shaken by her first full moon. It was really just bad luck that she had to experience it so soon after being turned. With some extra practice, meditation and instruction, she might have been better prepared. Although, Janius shuddered to think what might have happened last night if Kaleeth was forced to stay in her village.
