His manner of introduction was much like that of a gentleman from a fairy tale, overdone and yet such a welcome sight. The femme would give a gentle smile. Noel Rose Kringle. The name was beautiful, flowing upon the tongue. It seemed his parents had a knack for pairing names. She would give a soft chuckle when he spoke again. By the Great Winds this man was polite. She would give a small nod before lowering her head to the water, lapping up her fill of the liquid.

Head would lift as she finished, his question meeting her ears. Slowly she would recline on her haunches, her gaze bright. ?I was looking for this very Oasis, actually. Hoping that it wasn?t a myth the longer I got traveling into the desert, however. I am a healer you see... And well, I thought if it is by water perhaps some interesting plants might grow here. A bit of a long shot, and perhaps a bit of a crazy journey, but it wasn?t as if I had much else left to do with myself these days.?

The woman wondered if she might ever see her daughter and son again. Looking for them, while the thought had crossed her mind, did not seem to be the right path. Perhaps it was the Wind speaking to her, giving advice, but Ellis had decided against leaving Alacritia to find them. Tail would curl around her paws, head tilting to the side. ?I would guess you weren?t making such a journey yourself though. Was there somewhere in particular you were trying to find here in Alacritia?? She had been in the land long enough that she might be able to help him an area of three.

"Settle down." Said my heart.

...and so here it was I would settle down.
