Chapter 100: The aura
"How do you find Fata?"
"What region in Lustris do you hail from?"
"What do you think of my hair? Is it elegant enough?"
"Is it true you can’t lift a boulder with your bare hands?"
"Ladies! Ladies! Give her some space. She needs to breathe too, you know?" Floriel placed her body between the rest of the eager fairies and Arabella, putting both hands up in front of herself to emphasize her words, "Forgive them. Some of them have never even seen a human in the flesh before, let alone speak to one,"
Up until Floriel’s intervention, the fairies kept on gradually advancing while pushing and shoving each other out of the way for a chance to ask their questions first.
The hearty laugh that had escaped Arabella only made their eyes grow rounder and fuller in awe.
"Please, don’t apologize. I will answer every question they have for as long as I am allowed to stay," she smiled while nodding.
When the fairies had come to fetch Arabella, Silas showed some reluctance to the idea of separating from her, but they’d all reassured him that everything would be alright.
