Unseasonably Warm [Atreyu]

The stranger seemed to become emotional when she spoke of her family. She did not hide any information, yet she did not seem overly keen on speaking about it. The show of emotion made Val feel something within herself. Perhaps it was because her own family made her feel a similar pang of sadness. A pang where she mourned what was supposed to be, the image a family was supposed to live up to, and not what it was.
Her interest was piqued, and it seemed a motherly instinct in her was awoken. She wanted to help this creature in attending to its emotions. A need to be a saviour, a destructive trait due to her upbringing. Something that most times she kept buried for she knew how destructive it could be.

”I hail from a line of no consequence, filled with creatures who do not deserve a name” she said simply, as calm as she tried to keep her voice she could not and the pain she had endured for years leaked out subtle in her words. Barely there, but still there.

”Why do you seem so heartbroken when you bring up your line? she asked, her voice taking on a gentle tone.
