Aw ship...

Val was still feeling rather flustered even though outwardly she didn't show it. She seemed to listen calmly to the doe's words. She was impressed at the creature's knowledge. Grateful that she now had a name for the behemoth that they stood upon.

At Luminosa's suggestion she nodded her head and took a few steps forward, she paused and asked "Perhaps it would be best if I led the way?" Not being particularly subtle about the obvious reason as to why letting the prey animal lead was a possibly dangerous idea. She did not wait for an answer as she continued to walk forward. Keeping a slow pace with the creature's delicate paw... Claw... Feet? In mind. Goodness she felt ridiculous not know the names of all these new things. Had she truly lived under a rock her whole life?

"So tell me, in your homeland have you ever climbed one of these behemoth ships before" the new word tasted weird on her tongue and despite her monotonous tone she hoped it was not too apparent.
