Elann couldn't help but notice that she opened up about her past a bit but he didn't say anything to her about it. It had been a light conversation evening. Fairly often, Elann noticed he would be silence more than other times. She was just trying to learn who he was and instead of poking and prodding him to comment on what he thought, she just let him think on it. Part of her wished he conversed normally, but he was the man she married and she would have to get used to it. Elann just came from a very open relationship with her mother, essentially the only person she ever talked to other than customers, and since she didn't have that relationship with anyone in Syliras or with Noah, there were times she felt lonely because of it. 

Now with her push to not force him into being any certain way, she was having to learn patience and to reserve herself. He offered to play cards with her at least and she nodded.

"Sure."

He went about explaining the game, and to her it seemed quite simple, like a game one would teach a child, but still fun. He finished and she nodded, showing she understood, playing along with his silence. She gave him an okay as he explained about aces and then took in a breath, considering that the numbers were more than likely on the low end, she figured it would be low. However, in her rebellion and hopes of risk/reward, she laid out the opposite guess of logic.

"I'm going to guess it's higher," she said with a defiant look, as if she had just taken a bet that would likely win her some large payday. Really it was just her being silly and she knew in all likeliness she would lose.
