“Duck your head a bit. There, like that.” Keldra Dre’s hand rested lightly on the back of Valran’s head. “There.” She tousled his hair gently. “Keep your eyes on the floor, but keep– here.” Her hand went down to the small of his back, her other hand to his shoulder. “Keep your spine straight, feet solid on the floor. You’re not bowing, you’re not kneeling.”

Tantalizing! I think Keldra was putting on something of an act for Kantillun Ranya, which clashes slightly with being “all about honesty.” Hmmm. One question, though, if I may? You sometimes refer to Kantillun’s Servus as Fornal and sometimes as Fermal. Is that deliberate, an error on Valran’s part?
Whoops, no, that’s a typo. She’s “all about honesty” to Kantillun’s mind, which could mean anything – and doesn’t mean she can’t be disingenuous.
Ah! I think I like her.
