[i]"Well yes, obviously."[/i] Kaleeth replied, being the only other person present who did not show any degree of surprise within her expression. She seemed to think it was perfectly normal. [i]"All you have to do is ask the Hist and...wait, I guess Imperials don't have the Hist to ask. I guess you would have to..."[/i]

There was a pause as Kaleeth actually looked to be in serious thought, before taking on a genuinely curious expression. [i]"I don't think I know what a Human would have to do. Is there really no way for a Human to change their sex? Or...any other race? Is it really only Argonians? All an Argonian has to do is drink some sap, ask the Hist, and they'll usually just change their bodies into a man or woman, depending on what they want. Then there's usually a celebration afterwards."[/i]

Julan had at first assumed that Leeus was playing some kind of joke on him, but after his mother's explanation, he looked almost as frightened as if he were about to be attacked. "I, um, well...I don't want to be a girl either, okay? I'm fine just being lonely." He began, giving just a brief pause as his words went through his own mind. "Or, um, I'm not lonely either! I'm just, uh, happy right as I am, okay?"[/i]

While S'nashi and Gwindir were finishing up their talk of business, Vasiq gave a quick glance to his sister nearby, who was naturally interested as well, having heard her name. "You mean whenever she was [i]actually[/i] in the house? Ahnasha was always a bit of a...rebel, I guess you could say. She never liked being tied down to one spot. As a cub, she would so often end up slipping away from our parents, and it would take forever to find her, since she never ended up in the same part of the city twice. No punishment could deter her from her exploring. And growing up didn't change things too much. It just meant that she had already had her fill of exploring Leyawiin. Our parents taught her the trade just the same as me, but I don't think she ever really enjoyed it. Mostly because she said, loudly and repeatedly, that she didn't enjoy it." Vasiq chuckled. "She liked hunting, and eventually pestered our parents enough to get them to agree to let her do just that. They were happy to sell the pelts, but they did not like the idea of her going out and doing anything risky. The Blackwood forest isn't really the safest of places, in all honesty."
