Amalia was more than pleased when the girl introduced herself, a breath slipping free of her maw. "Svetlana, of course. I am so sorry that it has taken until now for me to come and seek you out. I have been rather committed to my herb studies." She said with a chuckle, although it was missing the full touch of warmth that it usually carried. Ama often used her studies to escape the pain of her missing boys, and to try and distract herself from everything else out there. It was her way of running away without actually running away. Her thoughts were taken away from her when she heard the fox grumble, deep blue eyes blinking at the creature who lingered so close to Svetlana. In fact, the few times that she had seen the woman around she had not been without her fox. The other girl introduced her as Korrin, and Amalia smiled at the creature. When the fox spoke it told her that she was not little, but big and strong. "Oh! Well of course, of course you are big and strong Korrin. I am very sorry for calling you little, that was not very kind of me." she barked softly in her sing song voice, not wanting to be the cause of the little one's strife. Oh, perhaps she should stop thinking of her as little if she didn't want to say it again! Letting out a small laugh she returned her attention to Svet, blue eyes alight with humor from her fox companion. "Sp tell me Svetlana, what rank do you hold here in Fiori? You see I have kept myself away from others, and I am terribly behind on the who-does-what front." The tiny woman admitted, pulling herself down to her rump so that she was seated in front of the two friends.
