Surprisingly – to Blue's frightened mind, anyways – the first to approach her wasn't some bloodthirsty murderer. Instead it was just... a boy. He definitely looked older than her, but still not old enough to be an adult, and that put her somewhat at ease. Until he opened his mouth, that is. As soon as he did, Blue found her ears flicking back against her head, tome slightly frantic, "You... you don't think you'll hurt me? That's a pretty big thing to only think!" In the back of her mind, Blue could identify that perhaps she was being a little paranoid. However, she found that she just couldn't help it. She was alone, in an unfamiliar place, barely able to remember what had happened to her... it was a stressful situation. She at least seemed to ease up a bit when Drayden mentioned her being able to stay, a fact which caused her to pause.
It wasn't as if she had anywhere else to go, considering the circumstances. She didn't have a family left to return to, nor did she have a group she had aligned herself with. If she turned down the offer, there was no guarantee of where she would even end up. It was because of this that she eventually muttered, her tail flicking to and fro behind her, "Stay...? I wouldn't mind staying here, as long as I'd be safe... who's Winterhymns?" Despite the obvious sense of respect in Drayden's words as he spoke about the other, Blue still had little idea of who the legate could be. It wasn't as if she had kept up a lot with the politics of the larger groups, after all.
When Wyvernkit approached, Blue's mint green eyes were quick to snap over to the other, wide and wary. Still... Wyv seemed even younger than the lioness herself, and she seemed as though she was aligned with Drayden in some way. That was enough to consider her "safe" in the paranoid cub's mind, for the moment at least. After a brief second of silence, Blue eventually spoke up once more, "M... My name is Blue. Just... Blue." It only seemed fair to introduce herself. After all, she had inadvertently learned Drayden's name through Wyvernkit's approach.
