Ariel took a pause to get herself in the mindset for speaking Jel before giving a reply. [i]"You could say so. I am able to hold conversation much better, but even now I make mistakes with pronouncing and grammar. I am always learning new words, though. Having Rukeewei for practice and help was a great thing as well."[/i] Ariel silently congratulated herself for getting that much right, [i]"Also, having someone to speak Cyrodilic with when Jel got tiring was nice. He says that if I remain for another year, my accent will start to fade, but I get more..."[/i] Ariel licked her lips and dredged through her vocabulary. She knew this one, [i]"...fascinated...I get more fascinated when I have dreams where I speak Jel with people."[/i]

[i]"Meesei,"[/i] Ariel continued in Jel, leaning her chin on her hand, [i]"I know that you and the others say that life here is not ideal, but I want you to know that it is still more than I could have dreamed of without everyone's help. I love this city, I love my life, I love my new friends and my work, and...I never would have met Rukee without coming here."[/i] Ariel shifted and looked rather dumbfounded, [i]"I'm still speaking Jel, aren't I?"[/i] She held her head back and let forth a peel of amused laughter, her hand moving to her forehead. "Azura's light! It seems so long since I've spoken Cyrodilic at such length. I'm starting to really go native!" Ariel recovered and asked Meesei another question, "Did you go through similar experiences in learning Cyrodilic from Jel?"
