To be fair, she had, far more than she cared to admit. When you had a new group you had to deal with every 500 years then you got used to that particular question. [color=yellow]"Has the Nyxian language really degraded into Z's for S's?"[/color] the woman asked the male, the corners of her mouth twitching down, the action unseen behind the veil, [color=yellow]"Hm... well, I guess it was bound to happen."[/color] With a shrug of her shoulders she turned her attention to the interaction between Summer and Zephyr. It was clear that the former slave did not know how to react to the giantess bowing to her, in fact, the discomfort was very clear on the wolf's face at the moment as she looked between the demon and the human. [color=yellow]"It's been 3 million years, what do you think happened to them?"[/color] Not entirely true, it had been 3 million years since the [i]original[/i] sages, but only 500 years since the last rather disappointing set of them.

Her voice could be heard by everyone as she spoke to the Demoness, the feel of her voice against their mind mildly strange but not dangerous. Some would probably even be used to such a thing if they had ever spoken to a shifter in animal form before. Before the one who introduced herself as Aether appeared, she turned her attention away from Zephyr long enough to look back at the one that seemed to cause a change in Aldin's mood. Seeing him, she wasn't sure why her former Master hated the male, but she settled for letting out a low growl at the man, teeth bared, before she turned her attention away. When the cloaked woman had appeared, Summer's attention was immediately grabbed by her, her nerves disappearing to make way for a curiosity. She looked like a demon, but she did not smell like fire like the one before her did, actually, she didn't much smell of anything at all. Strange really, usually individuals smelled like [i]something[/i], even if it was just their surroundings. Standing up, she hesitantly walked a bit closer to the woman and sniffed at her robes a bit before jumping back, the hackles on her back raised. There had been a strange scent when she got closer, but she couldn't place it, didn't understand it, and that made her even more uncomfortable than what was happening now.
