Ivory had briefly glanced up at Geralt as he had spoken, before looking down at the girl, who still appeared to be looking at her in amazement. 

[color=darkgray]"Ah.. I see.. Nice to meet you, Cece."[/color] She said, still a little unsure of how to approach the situation. Should she offer a hand shake? Was that a weird thing to offer to children? It was while trying to decide this that the girl spoke up again. She hadn't really expected her to say something like that. It wasn't typically what people focused on. Usually it was about how pretty or elegant she was, and made no mention of her actual strength, which she had always found a little annoying. The girl's word's however, had the opposite effect, and despite her awkwardness actually did manage to bring a small smile to her face.

[color=darkgray]"Thank you.. I'm glad to hear it's inspired you to be strong. Your.. mother's right, if you set your mind to it, I'm sure you'll be able to do it."[/color] She told her. Saying the word mother to her.. was strange, because she had never had a good representation of one. It was good that the girl had a mother who was nice enough to encourage her dream.
