Aeleis grinned pleasantly towards Jermey as she approached and introduced herself, her attention then returning to the man with the sword and Mordo. His story appeared more and more plausible as time went one, but she was still not quite relaxed in this situation, wondering why someone would be living all the way out here by the stone. What reasoning could he possible have for this? Has he been waiting for the 'chosen ones'? Of course, the next question in her mind would by why, but she calmed herself and tried not to get too carried away. Thus far, he was proving to be quite the ordinary stranger.
Her eyes widened a bit as the tattoo on the man's back was revealed, her eyebrows drawing together as she tried to place where she'd seen if before- she was certain she had. Mordo offered up that answer before she remembered, making her smile a bit, "Of course..." she spoke quietly to herself. The story was mentioned in the last book I read... Why would he have an image of some old tale on his back? It was beyond her, but she was always up for hearing a story, so she waited attentively to hear Mordo's response to his request. She, herself, would love a refreshment of the story.
