Something that happened every few years.. Caelia wasn't so sure about that, but it wasn't like she had a better guess either. "That'd certainly be a better alternative to what I'm imagining," she agreed quietly, letting out a cold laugh. She liked to think of herself as a realist rather than a pessimist but it was hard to ignore the omens - maybe they told of something to come... something like the end of the world? She shivered at the thought, deciding it too morbid to reflect on for longer than a moment. Fortunately he spotted something that dragged her idle thoughts away from these dark thoughts. She watched as he stepped into the water and grabbed a shell from the water. At first it looked normal, but then she noted the glowing crystals attached to the side as he turned it over. Caelia shied away from the waves, which seemed to be lapping higher and higher up the sand, averting her attention to the shell. For a moment she found her gaze drifting to Tyto's face as he studied the shell, momentarily distracted from what they were doing, but his words brought her back to reality. Slowly she moved a step closer to him, lifting a paw to gently prod at the crystal. It wasn't like she was overly familiar with the sea, nor shells, but she suspected these growths weren't at all typical. The way it glowed made her uneasy, and she pulled back reflexively when she made contact with it with her pawpads. "I.... I'm not so sure about all this," she said finally. It was rare she showed much emotion at all; Caelia was proud of her ability to keep her composure and keep her emotions reigned in. But these weren't usual circumstances, and the slight nervousness had begun to creep into her voice despite her best efforts to hide it. "What should we do with it?" Taking it home to see what Aurielle thought of it was an option, but she wasn't so sure she wanted to handle it again. |
