Warmth filled their bond at the thought of Isabella being their teacher as well as his sisters. That must have been fun, she thought. He paused, calling to attention her schooling. A wince and a shake of the head showed he was off on his guess.

"No, my father. No school. We were taught to read Shiber and common. We didn't have a wealth of things to study so I'm a bit uneducated when it comes to things like geography and cultures outside of my own, but I am an expert at math."

She didn't look it, but Elann was so skilled at math that her own father was confused sometimes by what she knew. Being a daughter of a merchant, she was raised in learning numbers and algebra. While she may not be able to understand such things as advanced trigonometry, she was very skilled at what she did know and like Noah, it would be easy to pick up on even more advanced math.

"I think you learn so well because you are a very detail-oriented person." 

That was all she said. Elann could have gone on listing the things that he was good at and detailed in his work such as his paintings, but once again, his words to her in the past stifled the openness of her character and kept her silent in speaking more on the subject.
