Nayru had to feign a weak smile as her sister so charmingly babbled to their clanmates. Banglehood, goddesses above where did she learn that one? She was halfway tempted to correct her but hesitated. Freyja was so visibly happy in knowing that this place was called Banglehood and, admittedly, the tiny medic wasn't too keen on taking that away from her. They had only just met and she already felt a strange sort of protectiveness over the girl. Despite being small and delicate and oh so frail, Nayru realized with astute clarity that if things came down to it, she'd gladly fight  for her.

She still gasped softly as Freyja touched her though, not used to such gentle comfort exhibited by one of her family members. [b][color=#6b7e99]"You're a blessing from the Goddesses themselves," Was all she could manage to begin with, blinking away tears that had started to collect in the corners of her eyes. [color=#6b7e99]"They don't hate me? I... I find that hard to believe. I was supposed to see the future for them, to protect them from impending doom by adjusting. Adapting. My powers never developed and I don't even think they exist. I was hardly in the public light either... Father ensured that. I... I don't know how to feel." All her life she had been pressured and forced to do things that she had not wanted to. She had never wished to be a princess. She had never wished to bear the weight of her people's needs. She had never wished even to have the same name as a Goddess. That's why she had left, telling everyone and convincing her father that she would return once they developed. She had lied to them.

And yet, they still loved her.

[color=#6b7e99]"I'm so glad that you're here," Nayru finally decided, [color=#6b7e99]"I'm so glad that you exist."
