Mave nodded gratefully, while she was fully prepared to pay for the food and aid, her supply of coppers was meager and she didn't know how she would gather more in the near future. She cleared her throat looking down at her ruined dress. Ali seemed young to her, but she knew that familes often began early in such rural environs. The house around here was obviously that of a family but there might be several generations living here.

"A bath would be lovely," she agreed. It had been a very long while since she had last taken one. Not since leaving Tar Valon weeks ago. Of course she was able to channel herself clean but that wasn't the same as a relaxing soak.

"Do you have family here?" she asked looking around. She hadn't seen or heard anyone but perhaps they were merely out for the day. The passage of seasons had slipped more or less from her mind and she hadn't known it was nearly Beltane. Perhaps they were out preparing for the festivities. 

"You have already been very generous but if you have needle and thread or perhaps a spare change of clothes?" she plucked at her ruined dress in embarrassment.
