From This Moment, Forever I Can Hope.

It seemed that it took a moment for the other girl to process the information as to where they were, or to even consider accepting aid. The recognition she had hoped for was either absent, or well hidden, and she wasn’t entirely sure as to which one it was just yet. However, when the castaway finally did speak, Lys quickly perked up. As she received the nickname Goldie, she offered an amused half-smirk. Though, the context that followed contained notes of suspicion- something she couldn’t blame her for. Just as she cleared her throat to offer an expiation, the other girl offered more depth to her initial inquiry- which she would do her best to provide some cognizance with her answer. “My name is Talyssa,” The tawny and white fae offered cheerily. “And it just seems like the right thing to do I guess. It requires little effort from me to find something, and if it helps you out, then why not?” She answered, asking her own bit of rhetorical question to boot. As to what kind of life she had, she would happily offer some insight. “One of the primary intentions of the Hallows is to help aid those who need it. As long as peace is maintained, everyone is welcome. So, I guess I’m just upholding the Carpathius way.“ Talyssa concluded with a pleasant chuckle.
However, with the mention of her home … she couldn’t help the lingering thought as it crossed her mind that maybe she could offer more than just a fresh meal. “It's not far from here if you needed a place to collect yourself. We'd just have to introduce you to my parents first.” She mused aloud, already trying to figure out the best way to get the stranger across the channel and into Auster. But then, it suddenly occurred that maybe this girl would want to keep to herself. And as a sheepish grin spread across her features, she did her best to provide an out just in case. “But of course ... don't feel obligated to accept. Just know the invitation is there if you want it.” Talyssa finished, taking a moment to glance out over the tide as she reeled for something else to say.
Then the idea of an introduction crossed her mind. “What's your name?” She asked softly, returning her attention once more.
"Talyssa Carpathius"
