Being called Lady Telthris was quite an interesting sensation in turn, making Elma feel as if she needed to look back over her shoulder to see if her mother had walked up behind her. But The title was complementary in a way, The experience was not something she had encountered before. It made her smile in a way that made the corners of her eyes crinkle. And then she was smiling for a completely different reason as she watched the ever-changing expression on Matthias's face as his earthen colored eyes traveled down the parchment in his hand. She was quite sure that she had had a similar look of incredulity on her own face when she had first read her own letter... Trying not to let out the laugh that bubbled up in her chest, attempting to look more like the part of an official messenger even though she wasn't,Elma could only manage a small lifting and fall of her shoulders in response to the questions that Mathias peppered her with and gave her had a gentle shake. She knew just as much about the subject matter as he did, Which wasn't much at all.

"I don't mind waiting for you to finish your restoration project. It sounds fascinating... And I could use some time off my feet. I've been traveling all day." She admitted, very aware of the ache in her feet as she reminded them of the long walk they had had earlier. Smiling politely as the dwarf was dismissed, she took a step forward, ready to follow the library and to his office.
