As Iota expressed discomfort with her staring, Nayru blushed and quickly looked away. [b][color=#6b7e99]"They're beautiful, I was just appreciating them," She extended in a soft voice, though she mentally opted to drop the subject following such. It was obvious that this newcomer was self-conscious to the horns that sprouted from her head and the cream tabby would never forcibly make anyone feel displeasure or awkwardness by drawing attention to something they disliked about themselves. She had been at the receiving end of that treatment one too many times- she knew how awful it was.

Nayru fell into step with the others, silent only for a moment before an overwhelming curiosity swept over her and the intrigued researcher side of her emerged. [color=#6b7e99]"Where are you from Iota? Is it pretty there?" She inquired, excited to possibly hear about a new place. She, herself, knew only of Tanglewood and the Akala forest from which she resided as princess within. Her journeys hadn't (and wouldn't) taken her anywhere else.
