capsized by the weight of it all {AW - herb collecting thread}

Faelyn's tail swished from side to side delightedly as she was greeted so warmly, pleased that she hadn't been rebutted. Not that she had really thought she would be, but sometimes others didn't want to be interrupted, so it was understandable that she wouldn't always be welcomed in her approach. In this case she was, for which she was grateful. Now she could have an actual conversation with someone and maybe make a friend in the pack.

"I'm doing pretty well," she replied. "Just exploring and trying to meet new people." The other woman mentioned herbs, and Faelyn brightened at the comment. "Oh! I'd love it if I could tag along. I'm trying to learn more about them myself," she said. She didn't like admitting to a lack of knowledge because it embarrassed her, yet another reminder of how young she was, but that was all right. Better to admit to it and be given a chance to correct her lack of knowledge instead of never learning anything.

"I'm Faelyn by the way," she finished, realizing she hadn't introduced herself.
